24 alternatives to I made a better interface for Google Tasks and I can't go back
I recently decided to try out Google Tasks as my only task management system, and while I find some things about the interface great, it really isn't suited for someone like me who has multiple lists with lots of elements on each. So, I whipped this together real fast and I can't imagine using Google Tasks without it anymore. I realized you might want it too, so I put it on the web. Enjoy :)
This is an improved interface for Google Tasks designed for users managing multiple task lists with many items.

For a long time (after devouring Atul Gawande’s The Checklist Manifesto), I've noticed a gap in the productivity tool market—most tools don't cater well to repeatable checklists. Task managers handle one-off tasks effectively, but falter with routines. On the other hand, project management software often feels overly complex. What I wanted was in the Goldilocks Zone between Todoist and Jira. For my own personal use, I created StepList. I've used it to assist and track workouts, my daily workday, software deployment and setup, household management, and more. Over the last year I've prepared…

Hello everyone! I left my job to start General Task a little over a year ago, and have been building a better free task manager with a small team. We aim to be the best place where one can find what’s next in their workday and we integrate with a number of different services to help do that. We’re still in the early stages of a beta, but so far you can: - Create/edit tasks with due dates, priorities, and folders - Drag tasks onto your calendar to block off time to do them (syncs with GCal) - Sync with Linear (JIRA coming soon) to see tasks assigned to you - Sync with Github to see your…

Even though Wave was killed more than 10 years ago, I didn't fully appreciate its value until recently, when I had to spend a fair amount of time in some group email threads discussing complex subjects. Would using chat instead solve the problem? Not really. In my opinion, chats are great for exchanging quick single-line replies. But to have a real discussion and arrive at a meaningful conclusion, we actually need more structure, not less structure. Which made me realize I wanted a product that worked exactly like Wave, but without some of its annoying features. In my opinion, the real-time…

Hi guys, This is my first time building something from scratch so go easy on me. I've always used to-do lists to keep me productive and stave off anxiety (not sure why they work so well for me but they do). I get kinda annoyed at the to-do list apps on the app stores because they move tasks to the bottom of the list when you tick them off. Some people may like that, but it annoys the shit out of me, because I like to feel a sense of progression as I go down through the list over the course of the day. So this was borne out of my frustration really. I also made it browser-based so it's easy…

Most tools let you add tasks forever. This one doesn’t. One main goal. Eight subgoals. Eight actions each. Runs entirely in the browser. No accounts. Exportable. This is a client-only app. No backend. No auth. The grid is intentionally finite. You get 64 action slots. That constraint is the point. Built it because infinite lists made prioritization worse. Import/Export works seamlessly. Looking for feedback from people who feel stuck planning big goals. Happy to answer technical or design questions.
