I don’t regularly use subtasks, so I didn’t delve much into it. Todoist: Custom filter sample TickTick: Smart List sample – Advanced tab Subtasks Todoist’s custom filters do require a steeper learning curve but are essentially limitless in what you could filter (see my notes about “sections” below for more info). You’re forced to use their “Advanced” custom list builder which has the features most people will need. They have thankfully added that functionality, but it is still limited. During my last review, TickTick didn’t have a “NOT” option (i.e., this priority AND not that list). Todoist is still king of the custom filters. Todoist forces me to edit the task and manually delete the tag or open the task card, click the label icon and select or de-select adding extra steps.
I did notice if I wanted to change a label or tag, TickTick has a small “x” in the task view that makes it easy to delete. Both are handled the same way, both powerful, both easy to use. Not any changes that I’ve noticed in tags and labels. I haven’t seen it since, so likely a glitch or they fixed it in an update. I clicked the parsing to make it go away but when I viewed the task later it still had a Monday due date. TickTick had a bug once in which part of the text of the task had “mon” in the word and it tried to smart parse “Monday” as the due date. Again, I don’t really use it, but it’s an extra feature available in Todoist only. If something is due in two days but you don’t get to it until the third day, the next occurrence will be two days after the date you actually completed the task. Essentially it will let you slip the next due date. I never use it, but it is a handy feature. Todoist still has an extra feature with an “ every!” option for recurring tasks. Todoist: Date parsing sample TickTick: Date parsing sample Don’t want the due date? Just tap or click the parsed text and it will revert to plain text.
Just add “monday”, “next week”, “every three days”, or just about any time/date based words and the apps will turn that natural language into an actual due date. Not ground-breaking, but a nice way to make certain tasks really stand out if you want and add some formatting to otherwise plain text. Todoist allows you to use Markdown in both tasks and task comments.
Note that both apps will default to adding the task to whichever project or list you are currently viewing.

Both apps allow you to quickly and easily add tasks with a shortcut key on the web, long-press action on Android, and a hovering “+” button inside both Android apps. As with last time, I used the premium subscription versions of both of these applications on both my Android phone (with the latest software) and the web version (using the latest version of Chrome). I’ve tried to put those notes into a more cohesive review here but keep in mind this is culled from a huge page of random notes I took throughout the test. Whenever I noticed a difference or something that bothered me, I wrote it down. I just used both apps, side by side, for about a month. I didn’t go for a scientific approach or even lay out what specifically I wanted to review. I ended up sticking with Todoist after the showdown just because it fit my workflow better.Ī few weeks ago I decided to give TickTick another try just to mix it up a little and see how things might have changed in the past couple years. I did a comparison between Premium Todoist and Premium TickTick a couple years ago just to document some of the differences between these two task list applications and give my opinion or observation of the two.
