When the list needs more
Keep today's list, and give it a plan
01When a task has a day
Type the day with the task.
In the planner, "dentist fri 3pm" is a task on Friday at 3pm. Today then shows only what's due, so the list in front of you stays short.

- Today shows what's due
- Late tasks wait at the top
- Buy groceries for the weekToday
- Write the cover letterToday
02When it can't be missed
Get a reminder at the time it matters.
Choose a time for the task, or 15 minutes before, and your phone shows a reminder then. Switch on Keep reminding me and it rings again.
- Any date and time
- 15 minutes, an hour or a day before
- Keep reminding me: three more rings
Return the library books
No due date
03When it comes back every week

Type "bins out every tuesday 8pm" and the task comes back each week, with its reminder.

- Repeats that stop on a date
- The reminder comes back too
- Buy groceries for the weekToday
- Write the cover letterToday

Questions
No. Type your tasks and the list works straight away, with no sign-up and no login.
In this browser, on this device only, in its local storage. Nothing is sent to a server, so it won't appear on your phone, and clearing your browser's data deletes it.
Yes. Open this page on your phone and make a list there. It's a separate list from the one on your computer, because each stays in its own browser.
A to-do list holds different things you mean to do. A checklist is the same steps every time, like packing for a trip. This page works for both.
Keep today's list short, put the next task first, and write each task as an action, like "call the bank" rather than "bank".
Dates, reminders, repeats and projects, and your list on every device. Type "dentist fri 3pm" and it's on Friday with a reminder.
