Microsoft to shut down Wunderlist in favor of its new app, To-Do
Damn, now I need to move faster. My app must be ready by the time they close Wunderlist. I expected an eventual closure, but not that soon.<p>I&#x27;ve spent the last two years developing a todo app that would be a good replacement for Wunderlist (and Astrid, if anyone still remembers that).<p>The app will include with some major &#x2F; critical features both those apps lacked: proper hierarchies &#x2F; first-class subtasks, automatically-activated contexts (e.g. location), snooze for arbitrary durations, a robust implementation of recurring tasks, and an infinite calendar-like timeline to look ahead.<p>I went full waterfall on it, the spec is 266 pages long and took half a year just to write. I&#x27;m currently testing an Android alpha version, and, for me, it works ridiculously well, much better than Wunderlist, which sat on my homescreen since August 2013.
