I wanted a very simple Mac menubar app that showed a list of items that I could check off over the day. Nothing long term, just day-by-day.
Every app I found had a terrific list of features, most of which I didn't want, so I wrote my own in SwiftUI for macOS 13.0 or later.
Use the Edit Todos… menu item to add, delete, edit and move your todos. Select them in the menu to mark them as complete or incomplete.
There are only two settings: Show Completed lets you choose how to display, hide or delete the completed todos and Launch on Login sets whether you want the app to start automatically when you log in.
This app is free, but if you'd like to support my work, please Buy Me a Coffee.
If you'd like to contact me, I'm @troz@mastodon.social on Mastodon.
