Why choose Pineday over Todoist
Three things set it apart. You do not create an account, because your tasks are never on our servers. We do not have any. You can pay once instead of subscribing. And the load bar shows how full each day of the week is, so planning is about what fits rather than what is overdue.
Where Todoist is the better choice
If you use Android or Windows, Todoist works there and Pineday does not. If you share projects with a family or a team, Todoist does that well and Pineday has no sharing. It also connects to many other tools. If any of these matter, stay with Todoist.
