Presidents use it. CEOs swear by it. Now it's in your pocket. TaskBuddy's 4-quadrant system forces clarity — every task goes exactly where it belongs.
Crises, deadlines, fires. Handle these now — then work to prevent more from appearing here.
Your growth zone. Strategy, learning, relationships. The most successful people live here.
Interruptions and other people's priorities. Delegate or minimize — don't let these steal your day.
Time wasters. Acknowledge them, then decide: eliminate or schedule for downtime. Be ruthless.
Thoughtfully crafted from the ground up for Mac and iOS. No subscriptions to basic features. No complexity for complexity's sake.
Rearrange tasks with a natural drag — within a quadrant or across all four. TaskBuddy's smart OrderCalculator keeps everything perfectly sorted, even when you shuffle dozens of tasks at once.
Break any task into steps. Subtasks inherit context from their parent, and TaskBuddy gently confirms before completing a parent with active children — so nothing slips through the cracks.
Switch between Work, Personal, Side Project, or any context you define. Every view — quadrants, search, insights, widgets — filters to your active workspace instantly.
See the full picture with a productivity dashboard: completion rates, quadrant distribution charts, tag breakdowns, and a timeline of your output. Know exactly where your energy is going.
Full-text search across every task you've ever created — with recent query history. Pin critical tasks to float them above the noise, accessible with a single tap from anywhere.
Your most important tasks, always visible — on iOS home and lock screens, macOS desktop. Configure by quadrant or workspace. Tap a task right from the widget to toggle it done.
A thought strikes while you're in another app? Hit your hotkey, a floating TaskBuddy panel appears instantly. Name the task, assign a quadrant, pick a date — done, back to what you were doing.
Run taskbuddy mcp and your tasks become a tool that Claude, GPT, and any MCP-compatible AI can read, create, and manage. Your AI assistant finally knows what's on your plate.
Add a task on your iPhone, see it on your Mac in seconds. CloudKit handles sync automatically — no accounts to create, no third-party servers. Your data lives in your iCloud.
Tasks live on dates, not just lists. Navigate your history and future commitments with a graphical calendar. macOS sidebar groups tasks by Past, Today, and Upcoming for a full temporal view.
Your tasks are your data. Export everything to JSON with full metadata — or Org-mode for Emacs power users. Pipe it to scripts, sync to Notion, feed it to an AI. Fully portable, always.
Tasks move through Todo → In Progress → Done (or Delegated). Color-coded at a glance with SF Symbols. See active work instantly and never lose track of what's in-flight vs. waiting.
A native iOS experience that feels exactly like it belongs. Because it was built to.

TaskBuddy CLI, available via Homebrew, brings your task list to your workflow — not the other way around. Script it, pipe it, query it. And with the built-in MCP server, Claude and other AI assistants can read, add, and manage your tasks as first-class tools.
7d, 2w, 1m or specific ISO dates
