Nuffo vs Microsoft To Do.
Free, simple lists that fit right into Outlook and Microsoft 365. My Day gives you a fresh start every morning.
Pick Microsoft To Do if…
you live in Outlook and Microsoft 365 and want a free, no-fuss list that's already there.
Pick Nuffo if…
My Day keeps filling up with twelve things, and you'd like someone to say: three.
Where Microsoft To Do is better.
- Completely free, with apps for Windows, Mac, iPhone, Android and the web.
- Works with Outlook tasks and flagged emails.
- Shared lists, repeating tasks and reminders.
- My Day clears every night. A nice, gentle idea.
Where Nuffo is different.
- My Day has no limit; Nuffo's today stops at three.
- Nuffo sorts what you dump; To Do asks you to pick a list.
- A 7-day cooling rule for new projects.
- Voice dump, AI chat and an MCP server for your own AI.
