Nimble Task · for Mac

Your to-do list is just text. Finally.

A tiny Mac app for people who'd rather type their tasks than click through forms, drag cards around, or learn a system that needs its own system.

As simple as a sticky note

Open a file. Write your list. Done. (Well, your list isn't done. But you know what we mean.) No database, no account, no onboarding carousel.

Already using TaskPaper files? Nimble Task opens them as they are.

Find anything in a blink

Every tag and project gets its own little pill at the top of the window. Click one and everything else disappears.

Tag pills

See what's @urgent, @waiting or @errand. Combine them to narrow things down.

Project pills

Show one project at a time, and nothing else.

Search

Filters as you type. Esc brings the full list back.

Edit while filtered

Fix a typo, add a task, tick something off, without leaving the view. New tasks pick up the tags you're filtering by, so they don't vanish.

Keyboard-friendly, mouse-optional

Five shortcuts cover almost everything.

⌘DMark a task @done (or undo it)
⌘TFlag a task for @today
⌘FJump to search
EscClear all filters
⌘ZUndo anything. Seriously, anything.

The small things, done right

Write it down, then go do it.

For people who like plain text, think in lists, and want a to-do app that stays out of the way.
