TickTick gives you plenty of ways to manage tasks. If you want something that feels easier to look at and less like another system to maintain, DoMind takes a more visual approach to everyday planning.
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.
TickTick is one of the most powerful and feature-dense task managers available. It combines complex nested lists, priority matrices, tags, calendars, focus timers, and kanban boards inside a single ecosystem. For power users who love building extensive, multi-layered productivity architectures, it offers tremendous capability.
However, many people eventually find that managing their task manager begins to feel like a demanding second job. When every small household errand, personal routine, and casual thought has to be tagged, prioritized, categorized, and filed into a nested list hierarchy, the productivity system starts generating more cognitive friction than it eliminates.
DoMind offers a TickTick alternative built around a fundamentally different philosophy: TickTick is task-first; DoMind is life-first. Instead of forcing every piece of information into a checkbox, DoMind gives different parts of your life their own natural spaces. Manage one-off Tasks, scheduled Events, recurring household Chores, daily wellness Habits, long-form Notes, and keepsake Moments inside a calm, visual workspace stored 100% offline on your device.
Here are 10 real-world reasons why choosing DoMind gives you total life organization without the endless list maintenance.
Spend less time configuring nested sub-lists, tags, and priority matrices, and more time actually completing meaningful work.
