About TickTick

TickTick is a to-do list and personal productivity app made by Appest, the company behind the Chinese app Dida, available on iOS, Android, Windows, macOS, Linux, the web and smartwatches. It combines task management with a calendar, habit tracker, Pomodoro focus timer and Eisenhower matrix, so many users replace several single-purpose apps with it.

Tasks are added with natural language that sets dates, times, priorities, tags and lists, and can include subtasks, checklists, recurrence rules, location reminders and notes. Smart lists and custom filters slice tasks by any criteria, and kanban, timeline and calendar views show the same work in different ways. The habit tracker logs daily routines with streaks, and the focus timer records sessions per task. Lists can be shared with family or colleagues for light collaboration. The free plan covers core tasks and lists, while Premium, an inexpensive annual subscription, unlocks full calendar views, more lists and tasks, filters, statistics and calendar subscriptions.

TickTick fits individuals, students and freelancers who want tasks, habits and focus in one well-designed app at a low price. It is not built for team project management, with limited permissions, reporting and integrations. Todoist has a larger integration ecosystem and stronger collaboration, Things 3 offers a polished Apple-only experience with a one-time purchase, Microsoft To Do is free, and Asana, ClickUp or Trello suit team projects.
