But once I did, It became an absolutely must have feature. For the longest time I didn’t use headings at all. It’s also a feature that is a little harder to discover than most others. The Heading feature is the unsung heroes of Things. It makes Things truly unique, and I find it very difficult to use any app that does not work this way. It’s kind of amazing to me how few apps use this same system for repeating projects. After checking off, the project and all tasks within return. In Things I can set a project to have its own due date, but the individual items don’t need one.
I find this messy, and overwhelming to look at in the today view. Subtasks won’t repeat unless they have their own due dates and recurrence. You can kind of do this in Reminders with subtasks, but there is a key issue that prevents me from using it. I can give a project a due date, and then set it to recur at a regular interval, either at a specific time, or a given amount of time after the project is completed. What I love about how Things uses projects is that you can set them to repeat. Projects are a cornerstone feature of any good task manager. You may not care about any of the features I will outline here, and that is okay. So if you are trying to decide between these two apps, consider this a list of reasons in favor of Things. But there are a few key reasons that stand out.
There are many reasons to stick with Things, some of which are difficult to put in to words (there is a feeling to how it works). While Reminders is now much closer to working for me, it has not been able to displace Things. I always want to try the system apps whenever they get a major new version. There are numerous reasons for this, but the decision mostly came from how Things just works the way my brain does.īut in iOS 13, Reminders got a big upgrade. After years of bouncing between them, I settled on Things 3 from Cultured Code. I have tried nearly every popular task manager in the App Store.
