Does not have what I need and won't make it easy to get it!

I just started trying out Finalist 2 hours ago, and it just prompted me to leave a rating FOR THE THIRD TIME!! So here’s your rating.

5 STARS💥💥💥

by Haley Moorue

bought the plus subscription, the only thing missing/what i don’t like is there’s not a “notes” section for me to document certain things about my day that i don’t want showing under the monthly calendar tab. I like the lists and the daily to do list, but i need an additional feature to write daily entries or notes.

Only a couple calendars are showing in my monthly view making Finalist less functional cause i have to still look at icalendar app. The widget also seem to be discontinued.

Plus Finalist accesses your calendar and places reminders and counts down for your appointments. Offers the ability to move up completed tasks to your current day. In addition, organizes shopping lists and joins Finalist on your iPad or tablet to your phone. Just wish Finalist would coordinate between family members.

Это одно из самых лучших приложений по производительности. Очень удобно и функционально. Хотелось бы более современный дизайн, и минималистично иконку приложения🙏🙏🙏

this app is a minimalist and elegant task manager that is effective and practical. It’s as frictionless to use as a Note, as practical as yellow stickies, and as useful as a Kanban board. The side scrolling interface is effective and a joy to use. The bring forward feature for incomplete tasks is brilliant. Here’s looking forward with great anticipation to future releases. This release is stable and fully baked.

As a user of Finalist from it's very early days, I've grown to rely on it more and more, with each upgrade. It has become more useful and more sophisticated, with a more attractive user interface over time.

I purchased it after using it briefly and seeing the potential it held for me. I wanted an easy to use daily/weekly planner, with a clean UI, that didn't have that amateur coder feel to it.

this app was pretty simple at the start but seemed to hold lots of promise. That promise is coming to fruition with each new update.

My congratulations to the developer! Keep moving forward with this app, your work is appreciated.

I use Finalist every day on my iPhone and Mac to stay on task with what I really need to get done. It’s a brilliant workflow and the developer has been great about keeping it updated with new features to best take advantage of iOS 17.

Highly recommend.

I love this app. Now I can consolidate all of my fragmented to-do lists into one place, with calendar integration, and a bunch of other neat tools. Beautiful interface, works flawlessly.

Love Finalist ! The ease of adding to-dos and pulling unfinished forward are among my favorite features - along with the simplicity and overall ease of use.

The developer is super fast to respond to questions which is unusual and refreshing in today’s world.

this app for iOS Review

Finally a daily todo list that thinks like I do.

this app, more than any other I’ve tried and tested after an exhaustive search hits the sweet spot and balances form with function to an exceptional degree.

It’s is as much elegant as it is useful. Feels like every little detail has been crafted with the user in mind. A feat that is not easily achieved and have only seen in rare apps I’d call pearls in the vast sea of productivity apps we have at our disposal these days.

Sure there are always gonna be wishes for any app, no matter how amazing it is. But it has a lot going for it …

You need Calendar integration. ✔️

You want a colorful view of your day, your week and all your lists. ✔️ this app lets you add a splash of color whenever the mood strikes. Say so long to the all too common and boring white screen of 95% of todo list apps. You have a palette of pleasing colors to choose from and 2 different design choices (plus one more in the 2.0 beta).

Want to see the weather in your day’s todo list? ✔️

Want to see how many days ahead a task is away, than just the date (as you get in most todo apps)? ✔️

Want to integrate with Apple Reminder? ✔️

Want to quickly bookmark a task and have a quick place to view all your important tasks? ✔️

Want to quickly see how far away in your day a pending event or take with a specific time is away in live time? ✔️

Want to quickly move your task to tomorrow or any other day in your calendar? ✔️

Want markdown links in your tasks? Or live url linking? ✔️

Want a lifetime purchase option and or a reasonable subscription price? ✔️

Want a clean slate each day without carrying forward precious days stale tasks that facilities clarity rather than overwhelm (with the option to re-add those tasks today at your discretion)? ✔️

Want optional headers / sections in your todo lists for better organization? ✔️

Want to pin a list that you can see on your day’s plan? ✔️

Want to be able to hide done tasks on your list and be able to change the completion date of your tasks (move to the day they were actually done)? ✔️

Want a fast and efficient search to find tasks or reminders easily? ✔️

Want multiple pleasing app icons to choose from (even more in the 2.0 beta)? ✔️

Want a responsive developer who genuinely listens and cares about your ideas and feedback? ✔️

You want a todo list / planner app that is actively developed? ✔️

There are so many little touches and details that I love.

When you fire up this app, what becomes immediately apparent how much the developer cares about the user experience.

There are a few wishes I’ll throw out they’re that I’d love to see in a future update or major version.

List groups.
Archive list option.
Apple Watch app.
Sub-tasks.

After conversing with the developer I can tell you a couple of these are already on his roadmap.

I’ll end by saying this app is truly a rare find that I’m delighted to have discovered. 🙏

This is the type of app I was looking for that can make all the lists I need on the spot. Daily lists and set up your month too along with lists like grocery shopping where if you check off an item it goes to the bottom!! Sounds simple but some apps just don’t do that. I highly suggest Finalist!! Keep up the good work team!!
