In the analyzed review sample, users frequently praised Todoist's flexible task capture, natural-language input, and seamless cross-platform sync, which help streamline personal and academic planning. However, a significant number of complaints centered on reminders and notifications being locked behind a Premium subscription, the recurring cost of the subscription, and occasional reliability issues such as syncing problems or tasks disappearing. While the free tier offers a solid foundation, reviewers noted that advanced features like calendar views and richer reminders require Pro. Reports of bugs should be seen as individual experiences rather than definitive statements about current app stability.
What users like
Natural language task capture Users find it quick and easy to type or speak tasks with dates, times, and recurrence, which the app parses automatically, reducing friction in capturing thoughts.
Flexible organization options Reviewers value the ability to organize tasks into projects, labels, and priorities, which helps manage complex workloads such as academic and personal projects.
Cross-platform synchronization Many users highlight seamless syncing across Android, iOS, web, and desktop, along with widgets and Wear OS integration, making it easy to manage tasks on multiple devices.
Clean interface and no ads The app is frequently described as simple, clean, and ad-free, with a short learning curve compared to other task managers, though some find it complex.
Common concerns
Reminders behind paywall A major complaint is that basic reminders and push notifications require a Premium subscription, which many users see as essential and expect to be free.
Subscription cost Many users find the subscription expensive for individual use, dislike the lack of a one-time purchase option, and cite price increases as a reason for cancellation.
Reliability issues A significant number of reviews report tasks not syncing, disappearing, or duplicating, along with crashes and widget failures, which undermines trust in the app.
Recurring task bugs Users encounter problems with recurring tasks such as skipped dates, incorrect resets, or limited recurrence options, and some report tasks vanishing entirely.
