“Why can't I find a great To Do List? I tried Sandy - cool, but too buggy, not good on iPhone. Tried Todoist, good but lacking features and not good on iPhone. Rememebr the Milk? I can't find what everyone likes about it so much. I just want a synchable web/mobile option. Anyone have any ideas?”
Have you tried the RTM firefox plugin for Gmail? That why I like it - Shey, Jamaican of FF
I use Ta-da lists a little bit (http://www.tadalist.com/) very simple and straight forward, not sure about their mobile support. - John Duff
I'm going to try OmniFocus when I get an iPhone. It's $20 but the location aware to-dos is really neat. - Paul Reynolds
I use RTM/Gmail FF plugin too. I find no need to synch anything! - Ian May
I use MyLifeOrganized. No iPhone option yet, however, although the developer is working on it. - Dan Liebke
Been checking out the OmniFocus info: looks great, but 80 bucks for the desktop app, and 20 for the iPhone app...for a todo list? Are they kidding? - Steve Isaacs
I like RememberTheMilk for the route mapping feature. - Lisa L. Seifert
The findings: Omni looks good but is WAY WAY overpriced, and seems to indicate that it only syncs if you use .mac or a web dav server (?) hell no. RTM I just don't like the interface, and the iPhone web app seems weak. Liked the gmail integration but what I really need is web/iPhone app integration. Things seemed perfect so I bought the iPhone app, but syncing isn't yet supported. FAIL. - Steve Isaacs
OmniFocus - does it sync from desktop app>iPhone (or does it need .mac or a web dav server)? For that price I think it should at least sync without any other specifications. - Steve Isaacs
Why not just a zoho or google docs document - Cody Heitschmidt
Seriously I think sometimes we all look for the perfect app for every task instead of using one app to it's fullest. - Cody Heitschmidt
Maybe not hell, I don't know - Cody Heitschmidt
i don't know too much about this app, but check it out. it might be to your liking: http://www.reqall.com/ - Cee Bee
I love Google Docs, but I need ultimately something that can keep tasks dated, and let me know about upcoming and overdue. Checkboxes and stuff. I love GDocs, but it sucks that you can't edit them on the iPhone. - Steve Isaacs
Cee: Thanks - I'm checking it out now. Boy this todo list web/iphone quest has turned into the mission of life. Right now checking reQall and Jott. Feel like I'm getting close. - Steve Isaacs
Steve, have you tried Backpack? http://www.backpackit.com/ There's a free and and a solo plan that drops all the features, but I'm pretty sure they still have the todo list. 37 SIgnals' To-do list is the only one I've been able to use regularly: very simple. - Mark Trapp
I am an admitted RTM evangelist - once you get used to the interface it's amazing. Plus RTM pro has an iPhone version. I'll end my evangelism on that note. - Ben Parr
Evernote is a nice note-taker & has to-do functionality & syncs 3 ways (desktop,web,iphone). huh huh huh, i said 3-way - Peter Ghosh
I so much want to love Evernote - gave it a great shot, but I had problems with: 1. iPhone text entry was really buggy 2. Can't check off things on to do lists on iPhone (or make todo lists) 3. When I copy sections of web pages to app, the formatting got so screwy 4. When I would copy a whole link in the app, it just copied the url text - would be nice to see the whole thing. The synching was the coolest part. I'll have my eye on it, but for now I couldn't find a context for me. I love that icon though! - Steve Isaacs
I feel exhausted by this obsessive software search. ComicCon is next week and I really want something in place - I'll be 100% laptop and iPhone and need a dream solution. "Things" looks wonderful but it's not ready for prime time yet. At the moment I'm going with Jott. Not so much for the voice-recog but because it's simple and the phone app is tight. - Steve Isaacs
Didn't RTM win some iPhone app award or some crap like that? - Rahsheen ™, Coach Rah
What about OmniFocus? - Eric Portelance
