Your task list is a plain text file, not some proprietary format owned by a company or locked to a specific application.


Plain text is the simplest file format there is. It will always be accessible, by some kind of application, forever.


Learn only a few simple formatting rules (which SwiftoDo will take care of for you) to indicate task priority, task completion, and so on.


The todo.txt format was built with Getting Things Done in mind. It supports projects (which being with “+”) and contexts (which begin with a “@“).


With Dropbox or Files app (iOS 11+ only) sync enabled, you can sync your task list with any app on any platform.
