It's available for download on iOS and 11 macOS via the App Store. 12 13 ![txtodo on MacOS Big Sur, with no tasks][macos] 14 15 txtodo lists your immediate, short-term tasks to help you get things 16 done without overthinking it.

You can also create up to three long-term 18 tasks that "float" with you from day-to-day. 19 20 On 15 February 2020, I deleted my account with Trello.
