CNET Editors' review
Keeping on top of daily tasks can be stressful for many. The ToDo Reminder is a program designed to help you keep track of daily duties and prioritize tasks. Its simple approach might not appeal to all, but it can help users stay organized without much effort.
Users hoping for a sleek look may be disappointed by this freeware's plain interface. However, simplicity is an asset for ToDo Reminder. Where other reminder and prioritization software attempts to do too much--potentially confusing the user--there is almost no mistaking the simple job of this download. By creating tasks, users can set reminders and organize them by priority. The task list is simple and effective for tracking any to-do items. An added feature is the ability to create and organize tasks by category. This will certainly be helpful for users who need to manage multiple aspects of their lives with a single program. Besides the simple display, which some users may not like, our only other concern is the lack of direction for setting the timer to alert users of upcoming time-sensitive tasks. Despite the program's overall simplicity, more user guidance in this area would be beneficial.
Still, this is a fine download that will keep users organized. Compared with many similar programs we have tested, ToDo Reminder is a better choice because it keeps things simple.
Publisher's Description
From Jose Falcao:
With ToDo Reminder, make a list of all the tasks you have to do and remember. Create lists of all your important events, anniversaries, and things to do. Define priorities and dates to do things, archive old reminders, print list, sort by date or task, and it uses whatever date format the user's computer is configured for. Takes very little space on your desktop, and minimizes to the tray. Can also startup automatically, to help you remember.
What's new in this version: Version 1.1.7.1 allows input forms to be resizable.

"TOO simple"
Version: ToDo Reminder 1.1.4.0
Pros
very simple display
Cons
military time
Summary
TOO simple
-
"Not a scheduler, just a good simlpe todo list. No bugs that I found."
Version: ToDo Reminder 1.0.9.7
Pros
I rarely need more than this program provides; just the event field, date field and text field for details - which shows up as a hint bubble when moused over.
Very handy, a small RAM footprint and it works from an .ini file, rather than cluttering up the registry.

"Buggy but nice"
Version: ToDo Reminder 1.0.9.7
Pros
Simple, easy to use interface, nothing extra. Definite A+ for effort. :)
Cons
Buggy. It may just be my computer, but I'm thinkin' it's not. The program, once open, can minimize but everytime I reopen it, it wants to edit an existing task. :(
