In this post, we list the 6 best Android task management apps that will help you stay super on top of all your daily tasks.
The Best Task Management Apps for Android
Todoist a great allrounder
Microsoft To Do for Microsoft user and those that enjoy a simple interface
Tick Tick for the widget lovers
Habitica for gaming freaks
Google Tasks for Google Drive users
Simplish for task collaboration, file sharing, and simplicity
1. Todoist
First on the list, Todoist. Todoist is the perfect solution for those that just want a task management app that does all the basics really well. The app is a great balance between usability and simplicity, making it super easy to use yet functional and easy to navigate.
Adding tasks to a Todoist list is quick and easy. To-do list items are easily moved around between the user’s created project categories and paid users can even create custom labels and filters as well as make use of its additional collaboration features.
2. Microsoft To Do
Not to be outdone, Microsoft has added their own addition of a to-do list app into the mix. And, it must be said, they’ve done a pretty fine job.
The Microsoft To Do app is probably best described by its simplicity. It may not have all the bells and whistles that other Android task management apps possess but what it does super well is the basics. Simply type in a task, hit the add button, and the newly created project is added to a daily list. And if the task isn’t completed within the day, it is simply added to tomorrow’s list and will stay there until ticked off. Easy as that.
3. Tick Tick
Tick Tick is another great option for anyone on the hunt for a comprehensive Android task management app. It offers users a wide array of features including pinned notifications, the addition of due dates, project tags, a variety of different list types, and, for the widget lovers, Tick Tick offers its users the ability to stick your list right there on your phone’s homepage for easy access.
Tick Tick also allows users to organize their lists in primary tasks and sub-tasks, meaning completing large and rather overwhelming projects can be broken down into smaller increments for a less daunting approach.
4. Habitica
Habitica is a one-of-a-kind Android task management app that is best suited to those that love video games, particularly RPGs. The way this app has been designed makes the mundane seem much more enticing by gamifying added tasks.
Basically, users create a character in typical RPG style, you know by choosing what they look like and how they dress, then as tasks are added and completed the user earns experience points and rewards that then can be later used to pimp out their character.
Not only that, but users can also earn in-game currency and even buy weapons and armor that can be used in hand-to-hand combat and quests.
5. Google Tasks
For those amongst us that are avid Google users, whether it be Google Drive, Google Docs, or Google Sheets, etc., you simply can’t go past Google Tasks. Google Tasks seamlessly integrates with a Gmail and Google Calendar account and allows its users to quickly and easily add tasks and projects at will.
Features like adding due dates, lists, and subtasks make Google Tasks a super-comprehensive Android management option that is sure to keep many Google users very happy.
6. Simplish
Simplish is an Android management task app that is not only great for to-do lists but is also perfect for file sharing and team collaboration. Not only that, but the app’s calendar functionality also allows users to set daily reminders and schedule important appointments.
Simplish has been configured with functionality and ease-of-use in mind. It features a minimal interface, integrated instant messaging, and sections for yet-to-be-completed tasks and daily projects.
Conclusion
Finding just the right Android task management app that is just right for you shouldn’t be hard. Any of the above suggestions are a solid option and are sure to get you from zero to productive hero in no time at all.
If you think that Simplish is the right option for you, find it either on the Google Play Store or even on the Apple Store.
