Tasks.org is a free and open source to-do and task management app for Android with a focus on privacy and synchronisation. It descends from the source code of Astrid, a popular productivity app discontinued in 2013, and offers powerful recurring tasks, subtasks, location reminders and custom filters — all without ads or data sharing.

Why Use Tasks.org?
