The WeDo app may be the key to (finally) conquering your to-do list
Staying on top of everything you have to do each day is sometimes tedious and sometimes overwhelming. There are the chores, the happy hour plans, the kids’ schedules — and that’s not even counting what you do at the office.
There’s a good chance your to-do list system consists of Post-it notes, scribbles on scraps of paper, and the always handy “I’ll just remember it” method. It’s no wonder that 41 percent of to-do list items are never completed.
Experts say that the issue with traditional to-do lists is that they don’t do a good enough job of distinguishing between big tasks and small ones, so we’re likely to check off the quick and easy stuff first, without getting to the big projects. And if you manage more than just yourself (like your family’s tasks or your work team’s projects), it’s even harder to stay on top of it all. That’s what WeDo was made to take care of — and if their 4.5 stars on iTunes is any indication, they’re killing it.
The app can handle anything, from groceries to personal projects. It’ll let you break bigger tasks into subtasks so you can keep everything you need to finish it in one place, while still getting that sweet, sweet satisfaction of marking subtasks as done. And if you need to collaborate, you can do that too — just create groups for your tasks and lists, and you can assign tasks and get notified when they’re done. If you’re the one who needs a little motivation, you can add reminders, due dates, and repetitive tasks.
You can get the WeDo app for iOS or Android for $19.99 at the Mashable Shop (pssst: it’s 88% off right now). Plus, for a limited time only, enter promo code SOFTWARE20 at checkout to save an additional 20% on the purchase.
