Todoist
Todoist is a clean cross-platform task manager trusted by millions, with natural language input, project views, and recurring task support across all devices.
What is Todoist?
Todoist has occupied a consistent and respected position in the personal productivity space for nearly two decades. Founded by Amir Salihefendic in 2007 while he was a student in Aarhus, Denmark, it started as a side project and grew entirely bootstrapped into one of the most-used task management tools globally, with tens of millions of users across personal, professional, and team contexts. Doist — the company behind Todoist — is remote-first and has been since its founding, making it something of a laboratory for the distributed work model it now sells productivity tools to support.
Todoist's cross-platform presence is one of its defining strengths: web, iOS, Android, Mac, Windows, browser extensions for Chrome and Firefox, and integrations with email clients, calendars, and collaboration tools including Slack, Google Calendar, and Outlook. The sync layer that keeps all of these in consistency is a core technical challenge — when you complete a task on your phone while offline, Todoist must queue that change and merge it correctly when connectivity resumes. Productivity Pro and Business subscribers get additional features including labels, filters, comments, and team workspaces that raise the stakes of any platform disruption.
Todoist sync failures are the most common complaint during outage events. Tasks completed on one device appear uncompleted on another, creating confusion about actual task state. New tasks added on mobile fail to appear on the web interface, and vice versa. The browser extension stops displaying the task input overlay, making quick-capture impossible for users who rely on it throughout the day. Recurring task scheduling can fail to generate new instances when the backend has trouble. Email and calendar integrations — like the ability to forward emails to Todoist as tasks — stop processing during API degradation events.
Outage.gg tracks Todoist platform status using real-time community reports from users across all supported platforms. If Todoist is not syncing, tasks are disappearing, or the app is not loading, the live status page shows current impact from the Todoist community.
