Our verdict on Remember The Milk
Remember The Milk is a task-management application for organizing personal and shared to-do lists. It suits people who want more structure than a simple checklist, including recurring tasks, individual reminders, tags, Smart Lists, advanced task search, notes, attachments, and task assignment. Web, Windows, macOS, Linux, iOS, and Android apps are available, alongside API access for broader workflows.
The free Basic plan covers the main task-management foundation: web, desktop, and mobile apps; reminders through email, text, IM, Twitter, and mobile apps; list sharing with up to 2 others; and a completed-task archive for the last 7 days. Pro costs $49.99 per year, billed annually. It adds subtasks, unlimited sharing, offline access in the web app, advanced sorting and grouping, attachments through Dropbox and Google Drive, and Microsoft Outlook synchronization. That makes the free tier suitable for personal lists and smaller shared workflows, while Pro is aimed at users who need deeper organization and collaboration.
Its broader ecosystem is a central strength. Remember The Milk supports iCalendar feeds for calendar applications and connects with Gmail, Google Calendar, Evernote, Alexa, Siri, IFTTT, Zapier, Dropbox, Google Drive, and Microsoft Outlook. Recurring-task intervals, Smart Lists, and advanced search give longtime users room to build detailed systems around their tasks. The trade-off is that several of the more useful capabilities sit behind the annual Pro subscription, while Basic sharing remains limited. Choose it if you value mature list management, integrations, and cross-platform access; choose a simpler to-do app if you only need a minimal checklist without paid upgrades.
