A good to-do list app can bring order to those who struggle to keep track of everything on their schedule. There are tons of options in this space, but my personal favorite is TickTick Premium<\/a>, which works across<\/a> Windows, macOS, iOS, Android, Linux and the web. It offers a powerful set of tools for organizing thoughts and structuring events. You can group tasks with specific tags, distinguish them by priority level, set reminders<\/a> for recurring events and see all of your upcoming to-dos in a calendar or \u201ctoday\u201d view.<\/p>\n Visually, the app is clean, easy to parse and consistent across devices, so you can set a task on the web and update it on an iPad without feeling lost. While it isn\u2019t explicitly designed for note-taking you can jot down thoughts and create structured lists within each to-do. Search works well, and you can create a task with natural language, so writing, \u201cfinish gift guide by next Wednesday at 4pm\u201d will automatically set the correct due date. (This isn\u2019t bulletproof, but it generally goes right.) Apps like this aren\u2019t a cure-all for those who can\u2019t stay on top of their lives, but if your loved one often seems frazzled at work, TickTick may help them see a little bit clearer. \u2014 J.D.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
