A calm to-do list for the web
The calm task manager Things 3 users wish existed on the web.
Capture fast, organize lightly, and always know what to do next. No bloat, no steep learning curve — just your tasks and a calm place to work.
- Inbox capture — throw in tasks instantly, sort later.
- Today & Upcoming — always know what's next.
- Projects & Areas — organize just enough to stay focused.
Built for people who love Things 3 but need web & accessible from any device
Things 3 is beautiful — but it's macOS and iOS only. If you work across platforms, you shouldn't have to choose between a calm UI and accessibility. TaskPocket brings that same focused philosophy to the browser.

Features
Everything you need, nothing you don't
Thoughtfully designed tools that help you stay on top of your tasks without getting in the way.
Inbox & Quick Capture
Dump thoughts instantly with inline add or the global shortcut. Your inbox catches everything so your mind stays clear.
Ctrl+Shift+NToday & Upcoming
See today's tasks at a glance, then look ahead. Tasks are grouped by date so you always know what's next.
Someday List
Park ideas you're not ready to commit to. They stay out of the way until you need them.
Projects & Sections
Break big goals into projects, organize with sections, and reorder with drag-and-drop.
Areas in Sidebar
Group related projects under Areas like Work, Personal, or Health. Keep your sidebar tidy.
Due Date & Deadline
Set a due date for when you want to start and an optional deadline for the hard cutoff.
Logbook
Completed tasks move to the Logbook, grouped by completion date. Choose to move them immediately or the next day.
Global Search
Find any task, project, or note instantly. Full keyboard navigation included.
Ctrl+KGoogle Sign-In
Sign up with email and password or one-click Google sign-in. Simple, secure, no fuss.
Your Settings

Keyboard first
Built for speed
Keep your hands on the keyboard. TaskPocket supports shortcuts for the actions you use most.
On Mac, use ⌘ instead of Ctrl.
Your tasks are private
We don't sell your data. We don't run ads. Your tasks belong to you and no one else. Simple authentication, secure connections, and nothing sketchy in between. We have plans to add end-to-end encryption (E2EE) so your data stays private even from us.
Built by a solo developer
I built TaskPocket because I love Things 3 — but half my work happens on a Windows machine where Things doesn’t exist. I wanted the same calm, focused experience I could open in any browser, on any device. No team features, no enterprise bloat — just a personal task manager that feels right.

Someday is for tasks and ideas you want to remember but aren't ready to work on. They stay out of Today and Upcoming until you move them.
