Matterlist is a free to-do list app focused on relevance — you see only what’s relevant to you right now:
You only see tasks you can do right now. Any tasks that are irrelevant to the present moment are hidden from your Today view. For example, you don’t want “Vacuum the living room” on your list when you’re not at home.
Tools for quickly decluttering the list back to relevance. If a task belongs to another day, you can move it there quickly. If a task requires a different context, e.g., “At Work,” you can make it automatically appear on your list when you’re at work. If a task is a subtask of a higher-level project you’re not working on at the moment, you can collapse the project and hide all its subtasks so they won’t consume your attention with irrelevant details.
Forward visibility into the future. All future days are addressable: You can jump directly to any date to see what tasks you have for that day — including recurring tasks.
First-class subtasks with unlimited nesting. That is, subtasks have all the attributes of a regular task — priorities, hide-until and due dates, notes, contexts, and even their own subtasks! This means that subtasks can be snoozed, moved to another day, or assigned a context so they’ll automatically show up on your list at the right moment.
Painless, robust recurring tasks. You’ll never have to worry about messing up future instances of a recurring task by deleting, snoozing or editing it. Recurrent tasks behave exactly like regular tasks and support the same actions. And, like regular tasks, they are visible on the timeline when you select a future day.
You are never forced to assign due dates. Due dates are reserved for tasks with hard deadlines. They are not used for postponing / snoozing tasks. Any tasks that don’t have inherent due dates must stay dateless — but you still have the ability to snooze them if you want.
