Get organized as fast as you can think. The easy-to-use interface takes no time to learn, and every action is instantaneous, so there’s nothing standing between you and your sweet productive flow. Trello is great alone, but even better with others. Get the whole group onboard in seconds. See their updates in real time.
Both Any.do and Trello, as if guided by some unseen hand of fate, exist to help you organize your life, though whether that's a noble cause or just a cruel joke is still up for debate. Both tools, perhaps in the hopes of keeping you from losing your mind entirely, sync across devices and give you the ability to collaborate with others, assuming you still have the energy left to do so after creating endless lists. They're equally adept at letting you create tasks and, one might argue, even excel at reminding you that the tasks still exist, no matter how much you wish they didn't.
Now, Any.do, as if to subtly hint at the futility of it all, is a charming little app that cares more about personal productivity than anything else, offering itself as a beacon of hope for the disorganized masses. Born in the United States in 2011, it quietly integrates with your calendar, perhaps in an effort to remind you of the relentless passage of time. The voice input is a particularly optimistic feature, assuming, of course, that you actually remember what you need to say when you speak to it—after all, it wouldn’t be a proper to-do list without a bit of frustration.
And then there’s Trello, a powerhouse of visual chaos that somehow still manages to get things done. It, too, emerged from the USA in 2011 and presents its case for organization through boards, lists and cards—an approach so flexible that one could get lost in its many layers of Power-Ups (which, in the right hands, could either be a game-changer or an absolute nightmare). It caters more to the team project, the vast sprawling workflow that demands to be tamed and makes you wonder whether anyone truly needs that much control over their chaos.
