Irkless or Toodledo?
Toodledo has a field for nearly everything. Irkless takes the opposite approach: fewer fields, clear lists, and a design that's quick to use.
Moving takes minutes. Copy your Toodledo tasks, paste them into an Irkless list, and each line becomes a task. Indented lines become subtasks. Toodledo can export to CSV: copy the task column and paste it in. How moving works
What you gain
Lists you move things between
Next, Waiting and Someday stop being status values in a table and become places, each with its own view.
A review for each project
Every project gets a look on its own schedule, and Review walks you through them.
Made for today's screens
Light and dark themes, easy-to-read fonts, and a layout that works on a phone.
Capture in one line
Type friday and it's due Friday; #calls and it's tagged.
What you'd give up
- Habits and outlines. Irkless doesn't have them.
- Most of Toodledo's extra fields, such as goals and contexts.
Stay with Toodledo if you rely on its extra fields, habits or outlines.

Moving from Toodledo
- In Toodledo, export your tasks as CSV, open it in a spreadsheet and copy the column of task names.
- 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.
