I hate to be that guy, but this looks exactly like https://teuxdeux.com/, a service made by Tina Roth Eisenberg (https://www.swiss-miss.com/) which has been around for a long long time.

More than one product can exist in a space (and todo lists are a dime a dozen) and maybe this was a completely original idea and GMTA, but wow it sure looks like a note for note copy

And both look exactly like the A4 tear-out paper planners my partner has used for years. They're both digital iterations of a well trodden path

It's a very simple weekly planer. There is going to be columns with weekdays and in those list items. There are a lot more than these two apps in this space. I personally enjoy https://tweek.so/

The privacy and locally hosted angle seems like plenty of differentiation.

Other than that I'd have to squint very, very hard to make it look "exactly" like TeuxDeux (which I find a lot less appealing, visually)

Another user of tweek here, loving the competition in the space though! The fact this can run offline without an account is great.

Yes. TeuxDeux.

I knew this app looks exactly like something else I've seen before, but I couldn't recall the name.

However, I don't consider this to be a copy of TeuxDeux because there's nothing particularly revolutionary in either app's design — they're both just digital versions of paper planners.

As far as todo apps go, I've tried them all. The problem I have with most of them is that they don't separate deadline with do-time. I want to plan a task such that deadline might be on Friday, but I intend to actually do the thing on Tuesday. Apps don't allow me to record that information.

When I first heard about TeuxDeux about an year ago I realized that the old fashioned and obvious weekly planner strategy could work. Since TeuxDeux wasn't free (I could be wrong because I now see a free version in their website), I just used a Google Doc to write down what I intended to do every day of the week.

And it worked reasonably well.

I'm happy to see WeekToDo come out. And it's open source!

IIRC Julius Caesar's or the Egyptian's take on the calendar have been around longer than Swissmiss' app.

I swear, teuxdeux is the most laconic and functional planner I've ever tried and it looks stunning. I'm so happy I found this comment, thanks @jeffkeen

A benefit of teuxdeux is that they charge $2 a month with the intention of putting the funds to maintaining the site and not having to sell the company.

[gramie]

$3/month. Maybe it changed recently?

Edit: we're kind of both right. $3/month, or $24/year.

[jimmydddd]

Yeah, I was quoting the annual fee. After having a few apps acquired and disappeared (e.g., wunderlist acquired by ms), I liked their strategy of charging just enough to stay independent.

I came here to say the same thing!

Frankly it’s a great concept and I might use it myself.
