A checklist without the setup

Most to-do apps want an account before they will let you write down a single thing. This one does not. Type a task, press Enter, and it is on the list. Tick the checkbox when it is done, press the cross to remove one outright, and use Clear completed when the finished items start getting in the way. The counter along the bottom shows how many of them are done.

It is deliberately small. There are no projects, due dates, reminders, tags, priorities or collaborators, because a list you can start using in two seconds is a different tool from a system you have to maintain. If you need the system, use one of the real task managers. If you need to not forget four things this afternoon, this is enough.

Where the list is stored

In your browser's own storage, on this device. It never reaches a server, so nobody here can see it and there is no account to breach. The same trade applies as everywhere else on this site: the list does not sync to your phone, another browser will show an empty list, and clearing your browsing data deletes it for good. The privacy policy covers this in detail.

Other tools here

For notes rather than tasks, the notepad is the quickest way in, and the text editor gives you more room plus find and replace. For code there is a Notepad++ alternative, and for formatted documents a WordPad replacement.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need an account?
No. The list is stored in your own browser, so there is nothing to sign up for and nothing to log into.
Will my list still be here tomorrow?
Yes, in the same browser on the same device. It will not appear on your phone, in a different browser, or in a private window, and clearing your browsing data deletes it.
Can I share a list with someone?
No. Nothing is stored on a server, which is what keeps it private and also what makes sharing impossible. A shared list needs an account and a server, which this deliberately does not have.
Is there a limit on how many tasks I can add?
Not a practical one. Browsers allow a few megabytes per site, which is far more text than a to-do list will ever hold.
