I have been through most of the apps listed in this thread. I am currently using Skedpal. I like the fact that it itnegrates with my calendar, and automatically finds open time to schedule (and reschedule and reschedule again, unfortunately) my tasks

I’ve been using my todo.xls for years. It’s located in my Dropbox and can opened using Planmaker, Excel, Numbers et.al. from Windows, Mac OS, iOS.

I think I’ve been through every ToDo app available on Mac/iOS .... The ones I used the longest were ( in chronological order) Omnifocus, 2DO, Todoist, and now Droptask is my current tool for the last 4 months or so.
I’ve been watching Sorted 3 for iOS very closely, but still waiting for the Mac desktop version before giving it a thorough trial.

EMACS orgmode for the last few years, prior to that it was Ecco Pro followed by Time and Chaos on Windows.

Hi Steve,
You might want to check out Findings, which is available for both macOS and iOS. Dunno if it matches your particular scientific discipline, but it’s a very nicely designed app.
Cheers!
