TickTick: App of the day

There are few things more satisfying than crossing items off your to-do list. But TickTick somehow takes that feeling to the next level.

With most task management apps, you tend to spend more time managing your task list than doing the actual tasks. TickTick cuts out some of that manual management.

Along with adding tasks manually, you can also turn emails into tasks. Always on the go? Add tasks through voice, Siri, or Quick Ball. And once you add a task with a due date, TickTick will automatically add a reminder for you.

Need extra prodding to check those items off your to-do list? You can add multiple reminders, or enable "annoying alert" in TickTick to get constant reminders for tasks you tend to put off. You can also add location-based reminders, so you don't forget to pick up that one item from the store.

While most task management apps primarily focus on adding and checking off tasks, TickTick focuses on the act of getting the task done. With a built-in Pomodoro timer, TickTick helps you stay focused on the work that needs to be done.

Whether you use TickTick for work or personal matters, the app comes baked with organizational features such as folders and lists, so you never mix up your priorities. TickTick also understands different people prioritize differently. See your tasks based on due date, priority, or make your own custom smart lists so you can prioritize as you see fit.

Are you the visual type? With TickTick's calendar views, you can see your tasks on a weekly or monthly basis. You can also subscribe to other calendars, such as your work or personal calendars, so you can see everything in one place.

The best part? You can collaborate with anyone, from any device. With TickTick, you'll spend less time organizing tasks and more time checking off your list. And that's pretty satisfying.

You can automate your task management with Zapier's TickTick integrations. Here are a few popular workflows to get you started.
