Recently shipped features. Click through to read more on the blog where there's a write-up.
All work
Aug 29, 2026A single page with every open task across every list, grouped by list. Tick things off, edit them, and set due dates right there — no hopping between lists to see what's actually outstanding. Find it in the sidebar under Dashboard.
Task notes
Aug 29, 2026Tasks now have a notes field for the detail that doesn't fit in the title — links, context, next steps. Click any task to open it and type into Notes. Tasks that have notes show a small document icon in the list.
Search you can work from
Aug 29, 2026Search results are now real task rows grouped by list, not a read-only summary. Complete a task, edit it, or add notes straight from the results — search, do the work, search again, without ever leaving the page. Matches are still highlighted.
Faster long lists
Aug 29, 2026Lists with hundreds of items were slow because every task rendered at once. Lists now load 250 items at a time with page links at the bottom, and your sort, tab, and due-date filters carry across pages. Dragging to reorder works exactly as before.
Notes
Aug 5, 2026Every list now has a scratch pad. Click Notes on the list page and a plain-text panel slides in from the right, full height, autosaving as you type — for the context, links, and half-formed ideas that aren't tasks. Notes come along when you duplicate a list.
Public profiles
May 13, 2026Opt in to a shareable profile at freetodolist.com/@yourhandle showing your streak, completion counts, and 90-day activity heatmap. No list names or task content is ever shown.
How to make a free to do list online — without signing up
May 11, 2026A practical guide to the no-signup, no-login flow — including how sharing works without registration and what you trade away (almost nothing) versus keep (almost everything).
Improved task editing
May 11, 2026Click any task to open a panel where you can edit the body, set the due date, mark complete, change tabs, queue a move to the top or bottom, or delete — all in one place. Move-to-top / move-to-bottom inline shortcuts still work for quick gestures.
Productivity & Habits templates
May 9, 202615 new templates for routines, habits, and personal projects — Morning/Shutdown routines, ADHD-friendly task list, Deep Work, Weekly Reset, Job Search Tracker, Habit Tracker, No-Zero-Days, Monthly Goals, 30-Day Challenge, Daily Wins Journal, and more.
Top 10 things to do in cities
May 5, 202625 bucket-list templates — Paris, Tokyo, NYC, Amsterdam, Marrakech, Kyoto, and more.
Tabs
May 4, 2026Group items inside a list with tabs — Marketing, Sales, Dev, etc. — without spinning up separate lists.
Connect Claude or ChatGPT to your todos
May 4, 2026Talk to your lists from any AI assistant. Add tasks, set due dates, and check what's overdue without leaving the chat.
Bulk actions
