In short: TickTick is a Swiss army knife — Pomodoro, habits, calendar, all in one. If you love all those tools, stay with it. If you'd rather have fewer settings and more “just say it” — toss tasks into a chat or speak them and let an AI handle the rest — then ToDoClub is the calmer, warmer alternative. Especially if focus is hard for you.

When ToDoClub is the better choice
- You want to speak tasks instead of filling in forms.
- You want fewer features, but an AI that plans your day.
- Focus is hard for you — one task at a time.
- A little reward keeps you going: Club Coins, levels, streaks.
When TickTick stays the better choice
Honestly, TickTick is more feature-rich. Stay with it if you need a dedicated habit tracker, native apps for Android, Mac and Windows, or very fine-grained list settings. ToDoClub is deliberately leaner.
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.
Frequently asked questions
What can ToDoClub do that TickTick can't?+

Does ToDoClub have a Pomodoro timer like TickTick?+
ToDoClub has a focus mode that shows exactly one task with a ring timer — a similar idea, but deliberately simpler.
Is ToDoClub free?+

Is ToDoClub available in my language?+
Yes — fully in German, English, French and Spanish, each genuinely written rather than machine-translated.
