Google Tasks is simple — sometimes too simple. DoMind gives you more ways to organize the things that make up your day without turning planning into a complicated project.
Built by a small indie team who got tired of needing five apps to manage one day. • Join the community: r/DoMindofficial - real people using DoMind, real feedback, real conversations.
Drag to explore
The idea you had while walking home. The thing you meant to research. The grocery list that's somehow in the same app as your work notes. DoMind keeps notes grouped so your shopping list isn't next to your meeting notes. Add a photo, format with rich text, search through all of it. Swipe down to save.
Make DoMind feel like yours with multiple themes and customisation options. And it speaks your language - 29 of them, including French, Japanese, Hindi, Indonesian, Spanish, and more. Use it the way that works for you.
Every year, your aunt's birthday passes and you think 'I'll do something proper next year.' You never do, because by the time it comes around again, you've forgotten when it is. Add her birthday as an Occasion in DoMind. It repeats automatically. Each year gets its own notes and photos, so over time you build a timeline of the people who matter most.
You bought concert tickets in February. The show is in October. By September you've completely forgotten the details. Add it as a DoMind Event and it sits on your timeline, visible whenever you check. After the show, add photos and notes - so you actually remember it the way it was, not just as a line on a receipt.
Your camera roll has 4,000 photos and you can't find the ones from that trip to Portugal. DoMind Moments is a private photo journal, completely separate from your camera roll, with a date and a note attached to each memory. No cloud, no algorithm, no one else seeing it. Just yours.
That dentist appointment you've been meaning to book for three months lives rent-free in your head. Put it in DoMind with a due date and it stops taking up space in your brain. Make it recurring for things that come back - quarterly reviews, monthly finance check-ins, weekly calls - and it reappears automatically.
Those woolen jumpers need washing before winter, but you only remember in March when it's too late. Set it as a repeating Chore - the right week, every year - and DoMind handles the reminder. Add a checklist for the steps, a note about the temperature setting, and never have to think about it again.
It's 8am. You open four apps to figure out what today looks like. DoMind shows you everything - habits due, chores scheduled, todos with deadlines, upcoming events - in one view, the moment you open it. Nothing to navigate. Just your day, laid out.
Google Tasks is fast, lightweight, and seamlessly integrated into Gmail and Google Calendar. For checking off three quick work deliverables or a grocery item, it works well.
The problem usually starts when your personal life begins spilling into the app:
When you force all of these into Google Tasks, everything turns into an identical gray checkbox. You aren't failing at organization; your life has simply outgrown a flat task list.
A true Google Tasks alternative doesn't just give you a more complicated checklist. It organizes your life semantically—giving tasks, occasions, habits, chores, notes, and moments their own natural home.
Here are 10 real-world reasons why people upgrade to DoMind.
You might still use Google Tasks for quick email follow-ups. But for household routines, personal habits, health schedules, and long-term plans, you need a dedicated personal organizer.
How DoMind fits: DoMind provides a rich personal space for your life outside work email without forcing you into rigid project management software.
When an app only offers checkboxes, you are forced to treat birthdays, reading recommendations, passwords, and habits as tasks to be checked off and deleted.
How DoMind fits: DoMind separates Tasks from Occasions, Chores, Habits, Notes, and Moments so information behaves according to what it actually is.
You start with “Buy milk”, and six weeks later your list is a 40-item junk drawer of meeting notes, movie recommendations, gift ideas, and doctor reminders.
How DoMind fits: Move reference items and ideas into DoMind Notes, keeping your daily task view clean, focused, and actionable.
In Google Tasks, checking a box makes it disappear. But important reference details—hotel booking confirmation codes, gate codes, or paint colors used in the hallway—need to remain accessible.
How DoMind fits: Completed tasks get checked off, while associated reference cards and project notes stay permanently saved in your archive.
When family birthdays, weekend grocery runs, and child school events sit next to corporate quarterly spreadsheets, your entire personal life starts feeling like unpaid labor.
How DoMind fits: DoMind visually separates professional tasks from personal life cards, bringing calm and balance to your daily planning.
A long checklist doesn't tell you how your day actually fits together. You have a 9:00 AM meeting, an 11:30 AM school pickup, and a 5:00 PM grocery run.
How DoMind fits: DoMind structures your day into Morning, Afternoon, and Evening time blocks so you can see realistic task capacity around your scheduled appointments.
You might use Google for company email and spreadsheets, but you don't necessarily want your private family notes, personal habits, and reflections stored inside corporate accounts.
How DoMind fits: DoMind requires zero Google logins. It is a 100% independent, local-first planner that keeps your private data on your device.
A flat list flattens human context. An anniversary, a daily gym habit, a one-off tax deadline, and an inspiring quote have completely different psychological functions.
How DoMind fits: Semantic card categorization reflects the natural texture of life rather than reducing everything to a checkbox.
Google Tasks is intentionally utilitarian and gray. But your personal planner is a space you look at every morning and evening.
How DoMind fits: DoMind offers aesthetic visual customization, including low-glare Dark Mode and clean Light/White themes that feel inspiring to open.
Google Tasks only cares about what you need to do next. But a fulfilling personal life also includes what you want to remember.
How DoMind fits: Connect actions to memories: Task: Buy anniversary gift → Occasion: 5th Anniversary → Note: Her favorite jewelry brand → Moment: Photo from last year's dinner.
Organize Tasks, Occasions, Habits, Chores, Notes, and Moments in their own dedicated card types.
Plan tasks around your real calendar appointments across Morning, Afternoon, and Evening blocks.
Enjoy a beautiful, customizable workspace that feels like a calm personal sanctuary.
No mandatory Google account, no external tracking, and full offline accessibility on your device.
