In short: Things 3 is one of the most beautiful to-do apps ever — calm, fast, thoughtful. Two things are missing: it only runs on iPhone, iPad and Mac, and it has no AI. If you want an app in the browser (or cross-platform), or an AI that plans your day, ToDoClub is the fitting alternative.
| ToDoClub | Things 3 | |
|---|---|---|
| Capturing tasks | Chat + voice — the AI makes the cards | Typing, very lovely input |
| AI | Plans your day, tidies up (the Bouncer) | — |
| Focus mode | One task, ring timer | “Today” view |
| Motivation | Club Coins, 10 levels, streaks | — |
| Platforms | Web app + iPhone (browser too) | iPhone, iPad, Mac only |
| Design | Warm, playful (beach club) | Award-winning, minimalist |
| Price | Free Day Pass · All-Access from €6/mo | One-time purchase per platform |
When ToDoClub is the better choice
- You want the app in the browser or on Android too.
- You want an AI that turns thoughts into a day.
- You want to speak tasks instead of typing.
- Reward motivates you and you want to keep going.
When Things 3 stays the better choice
Stay with Things 3 if you live entirely in the Apple world, love the award-winning design and prefer a one-time purchase without a subscription. ToDoClub instead bets on AI, platform freedom and motivation.
How to get started
- Sign up free at todoclub.org — no credit card.
- Toss your open tasks into the chat — the whole list is fine.
- Watch the AI turn them into cards with date and priority, and plan your first day.
