Mac OS X is blessed (or perhaps plagued) with more to-do apps than you could ever use. Our favorite is Wunderlist thanks to its solid set of features, syncing capabilities, cross-platform compatibility, and $0 price tag.

Where It Excels

Wunderlist is a simple and beautiful to-do app that's very easy to use and understand. In terms of features, it sets somewhere in the middle between the minimalist to-do apps and the apps with every feature imaginable. This gives Wunderlist a healthy amount of focus. It just handles your tasks, and its feature set revolves around making adding and managing those tasks easier. One of the most vital elements of Wunderlist, however, is that it syncs with other copies of the software. While syncing isn't important in every kind of application, it's incredibly useful with to-do apps because you never want to be without your to-do list. Wunderlist has a version of their app for OS X and Windows, plus Android, iPhone, and Blackberry. They also have a web app so you can still access your to-dos regardless of what platform you're on. This is all offered for free. It works very well. Wunderlist is a wonderful app.

Where It Falls Short

There's very little to complain about, but adding tags to tasks would be useful. This would allow the user to give some added, filterable context to their to-dos. That aside, Wunderlist has pretty much everything you'd need from a to-do app.

The Competition

Apps For Mac

Mac OS X has so much competition in the to-do space that it would be impossible to fit it all here. We're going to go over a variety of the good apps, but if you have a favorite that isn't listed here be sure to share it in the comments.

OmniFocus ($80) and Things ($50) are among the most popular to-do apps in the Getting Things Done (GTD) style. They're both very good, very polished, and very expensive options. If you follow the GTD method for managing your tasks and are willing to pay $50 or more for an app to help you out (plus additional money for the iOS versions), these are definitely worth a look. We feel the high price tag is enough of a deterrent to go with any of the other many available options.

TaskPaper ($30) looks like nothing more than an almost plain text file, but has tons of GTD-related task management features. You type in it just like you'd type in a word processor, but little shortcuts and features make it possible to organize and sort tasks easily. You can add contexts to your tasks, collapse items and more. At $30 it's a little pricey, but if you like making lists in text editors but want more organization and control this is exactly what you're looking for. If you want something more low cost, Todo.txt—from Lifehacker's own Gina Trapani—is free and similar. Instead of working in a window, though, you add, remove, and view tasks from a Terminal application.

Anxiety, TaskMate, and Simplicity are three free, minimal to-do list apps. If you don't want to pay anything and just want to make a list you can keep handy when you need it, these are the apps you want to look at.

Salon

Finally, although a web app and not a Mac desktop app, TeuxDeux is another solid, free choice. You make simple lists based on the day you want to accomplish these tasks or you stick them in the 'someday' section if you're not ready to make them part of your schedule just yet. It's a very simple and elegant solution that you can use with any web browser.
