Overview
About Things 3
Things 3 is a polished personal task manager for Mac that helps you capture to-dos, organize projects, and decide what needs attention today.

Built by Cultured Code, Things is known for its focused Mac design, Things Cloud sync, and approachable structure for both everyday lists and larger goals.

Customer Reviews
Love it but have suggestions
I have gone through many planners and organization apps, and Things is the best I have found for me personally. It supports the habits and coping mechanisms I depend on, while still leaving room for improvements in Today list layout and grouping flexibility.
Gets it done without getting in the way
I use Things to manage tasks for multiple work projects. The basic functions helped me work more efficiently, and as my projects grew, the deeper layers were there to be discovered. The visual density is balanced better than other to-do apps I have used.
It’s growing on me
As I used Things 3 to get real work done, I began to appreciate how cleanly it works and how efficiently I can use it. With Things 3 it all hangs together, with useful checklists, headings, Siri integration, and a workflow that works for complex personal and work environments.
