Microsoft To-Do App Now Available on the Mac App Store

No mention of Todoist? That's the best one.

I tried it but moved along to 2DO and OmniFocus. It was good just didn’t quite compete for me overall

Free? What's the actual price?

The price is everything you type into the app is sucked up for monetizing purposes by MS.

Agreed, although I think Omnifocus is a good package. I just think that most people truly do not need all that it offers, and it's pricey. My best "average joe" task management strategy comes down to using Due for most things because it ensures that whatever I want to do will get done, and then something like Things or To-Do for the catch-all inbox of things I want to do at some point, or larger multi-step kind of projects. A number of years back, I drank the kool-aid on Omnifucus thanks to David Sparks offering it as some sort of panacea for task management, and I spent loads of cash and many months frustrated trying to figure out how to make my simple workflows fit in to its complex framework. Turns out I just needed to track things so as not to forget them, and be nagged to do them. *shrug*

If To-Do comes with Office 365 and you use that anyway, there's seriously no reason to use Things, IMO. If you're a lawyer with scores of clients and a family and six podcasts and god knows what else on the go at one time, then yeah, maybe you do need Omnifocus. I myself never want to be *that* busy.

Concur! It’s a great app but yes, complex and costly. I found 2DO to be my go to and I’ve stuck with it for a few years now.

No windows app.

I’ve been using it for a while, and I like it. I seldom stick with many of these types of App because they are overladen with features. If MS keeps it simple, I will continue to use it.
