Checkvist vs TickTick

What TickTick is

TickTick combines tasks, habits, a calendar and a Pomodoro timer in one app across every platform. Putting habits, tasks and a timer in the same app means the day is planned in one place rather than three. The cost is that none of those parts goes as deep as a dedicated tool, which shows if you need real project structure.

What TickTick is built to do

Tasks with natural-language input

Parses dates and repeats from typed text when creating a task.

Habit tracking

Tracks recurring habits and streaks alongside one-off tasks.

Calendar view

Shows tasks and events together, with two-way calendar sync.

Choose TickTick if

• Users who need calendar views, durations and email reminders for US$49.99 a year

Skip TickTick if

• You are a heavy list maker on Free — the caps are 9 lists and 99 tasks per list
• You want a monthly plan in USD: the upgrade page lists an annual price
• You need team features like shared projects with roles; TickTick is personal-first
