Irkless or Sunsama?
Sunsama plans your day on your calendar. Irkless is where everything you've committed to lives in the first place. They do different jobs.
Moving takes minutes. Copy your Sunsama tasks, paste them into an Irkless list, and each line becomes a task. Indented lines become subtasks. How moving works
What you gain
One trusted list of everything
Work and home, today and someday, organised and reviewed, so the daily plan starts from the whole picture.
A weekly look at every project
Review walks you through the projects that need you.
Much less a month
Irkless is $6 a month. Sunsama costs several times that.
Your calendar in the Apple apps
The Mac and iPhone apps show your events beside your tasks.
What you'd give up
- The guided daily planning and time-blocking.
- Pulling tasks in from your other tools, and a calendar in the web app.
Stay with Sunsama if the daily planning ritual and time-blocking are what keep you on track.

Moving from Sunsama
- Get your Sunsama tasks out as plain text, one task per line.
- In Irkless, open a project or the Inbox and paste. Each line becomes a task, and a line indented under another becomes its subtask.
- Sort them at your own pace: into projects, Today, Someday or Waiting For.
Try it with this week's tasks
Paste your Sunsama list in on Monday and see by Friday whether it sticks. Thirty days free, no card, and Sunsama stays where it is until you decide.
