Download WeekToDo 1.8.0 (Mac) – Download Free

With the sheer volume of data collected by advertisers and various companies, you have every right to be suspicious of cloud-based applications, especially when they involve your private information.

Week to do Designed as a simple, local, private weekly plan for those who don’t think cloud sync is necessary. It’s free and open source, and has a nice set of features with the added bonus of being very intuitive.

Keep your plans private

One of the main selling points of the app is that nothing is stored outside of your computer. Of course, this means that your calendar can’t be synced, nor can you export data to your other calendars. However, if all you need is a local planner, this app will do the job.

Thankfully, WeekToDo does support backups, which is useful if you decide to switch to a different platform (the app is available for Mac, Windows, and Linux) or just want to make sure you don’t accidentally lose your data.

Simple but powerful

The user interface is so simple that you don’t need any instructions to understand how everything works. You have a to-do list for each day of the week, and you can create custom lists for things that don’t need to be scheduled on a particular day.

Entries can be color-coded, and you can add subtasks, set notifications at specific times, and mark tasks as completed. The number of columns and zoom levels can be changed, and applications can hide elements such as calendars and custom lists.

A good alternative to cloud-based planners

WeekToDo is based on Electron, which is not ideal, but it has a lot of other features. It’s easy to learn, free, open source, privacy friendly, and available on all three major desktop platforms. It might not be as feature-rich as some paid alternatives, but it should be more than enough for most users.
