Astrid – A helpful tasks and to-do list for phone and web

For a long time, I have been using ColorNotes Notepad Notes To Do on my Android phone for managing my to-do list and storing notes. It has nice features to auto backup, but feels to be heavy now a days. So, I thought of switching to something new. Have heard of Evernote and AnyDo, but both are large in size for my Optimus One with just around 25MB more ROM space to spare. Then I cam across Astrid, which is just above 4MB in size, smaller than AnyDo and around half the size of Evernote.

Adding up tasks in Astrid is so simple and it syncs pretty fast with the web, so you can manage them from both mobile and browser in PC/laptop. It lacks a firefox addon but for me, the mobile interface is of most importance. The notification system is cool and it can be customized on user choice. I really liked the feature to schedule reminders for missed calls, at the time I miss one. Also, the feature to schedule tasks at repeated intervals like daily is cool.

There are lot more features to explore, like sharing tasks with friends, the ideas feature within and much more. Using it for just two days have made me fell in love with it. It helped me to get more organized and plan things for the day. Give it a try. Check more at the website: http://astrid.com or if you are an Android user, you can get it from play store.

Here goes few screenshots from my Mobile. Feels like some issue uploading photos. Will fix that soon.
