Two Due ReviewUI aka Ugly Interface - Version: 2.2.1, 7/27/2008 09:38AM PST

Holy convoluted horsesh!#! Batman! Not to mention the ultra-ugly appearance factor (somebody ought to consider developing Windows apps, "ahem!"). WTF is this thing all about!? Yikes!

Two Due ReviewThere you are - Version: 2.0.1, 10/24/2005 11:04PM PST

It's a bit slow to open and somewhat complex, but I'm sure I could get used to that. It seems to be solid and works very well. I like applications that you can just open up without tons of reading to use it. I was able to do that with this one, or maybe I just got lucky. I can see how this could work for a normal person and even people that need a more detailed note keeper. OS 10.4.2

Two Due CommentaryIn Defense... - Version: 1.5, 4/30/2004 06:00AM PST

In response to the prior two posts: both seem like rather extreme reactions to program behaviors which are slightly different from the norm but for which there are good reasons.

  1. This program is no more dangerous than other programs in terms of where it allows you to save your files. This is a permissions issue which has to do with the permissions of the user account operating the program, not with any special capabilities of the program itself.
  2. It is certainly possible to save your files on a network drive. At the top level on your boot drive there is a folder called 'Volumes'. Open this folder and you will find all your mounted drives, including network volumes. Again, this is not any special feature of the program, but part of Mac OS X.
  3. It is true that you can't open a to do list by double-clicking on it or dropping the file on the app -- but why would you want to? I don't foresee people creating thousands of to do lists and passing them around to one another. The typical user creates one or two or three to do lists for various purposes and then wants to open them on a regular basis. The program makes this easy by automatically opening your primary to do list for you whenever you launch the program. It also has an "Open Known" menu item that remembers all the to do lists you have previously opened and allows you to select any of them. So if you simply open the program first (preferably by having it automatically launch at startup) then opening your files is a snap.
  4. It is true that if you move a to do file the program won't automatically find it for you -- you have to tell it the file's new location, simply be opening the file in its new location. Again, though, I am not sure why you would want to be moving your to do files around all the time. And I am not sure how the program would find them all if you did move them, especially if you renamed them as well.
  5. The date selection is actually pretty easy. It defaults to a date far in the future so that, if you don't set a date, priority will automatically override the date in terms of sorting your undated to do items. However there is a "Today" button that allows you to set the date to today with one click. There are other buttons that allow you to advance the date by a week, day, or month, so that you can usually set the date you want with a few clicks, if you don't want to have to type it in. Again, this doesn't seem difficult to me -- although perhaps a little different from what people are used to in other apps.

of this app is not very well thought out... absolutely impossible to save your lists on a server, as it circumvents the os' save/open dialog and uses something else that doesn't include anything but your primary drive - for no good reason. impossible to open a list by doubleclick as the the saved doc's type is text and text files can't be dropped on the app... badly made. if a list was moved, two due can't find it at startup - the resulting dialog gives me the options "forget" or "remember", but not, as it should do, "search".
features of the app are promising, actually the best i've seen so far in a todo list. with the sole exception of the date selector which is a pain... again, there is no good reason to default to 2050 and have the user click through the ages or enter the date in tree different fields.

Two Due Troubleshooting ReportWarning - Danger ! - Version: 1.5, 4/10/2004 07:42PM PST

This is a potentially useful application. But be forewarned: it allows saving to the System folder as well as other dangerous, off-limits areas. Until this is fixed, use with extreme caution.

This little app is very effective at what it is suppose to do. It isn't a potato peeler it is a to do list. Job well done. Can't tell you how many reams of paper this is saving:-)

Two Due CommentaryExplanation... - Version: 1.3, 2/13/2004 04:44AM PST

Herb Bowie
A note from the author: Two Due is intentionally different from other To Do lists that are available. It is not quite as slick and shiny and easy to use, but this is because it does more than others. Some of its interface elements are a bit unconventional, such as the controls to modify a date, but hopefully they are well thought out and easy to use once you understand how they work. I wrote Two Due because I wanted a To Do List manager to do a bunch of things, and not just one thing. I use it daily, at work and at home. Suggestions for further enhancements are always appreciated.

Two Due Reviewnot convenient - Version: 1.3, 1/7/2004 07:09PM PST

fronkenschteen
How can I say this but It needs an interface overhaul. It works, but making a ToDo list should be easier than this - one-click date setting would be nice for example. That said, I think this is the only to do list that offers recurring to dos at this point, so If that's what you need it's this or Palm Desktop I think. I'm still looking for now...

Two Due ReviewNice Little App - Version: 1.2, 11/8/2003 10:00AM PST

Pauline Hendrickson
I have been using this application since it first came out in its 1.0 version and it just keeps getting better. Two Due offers many features not found in other competing To Do list programs. The latest version offers easy Web Publishing of To Do list items. This is a bargain for only $10.
