About 2Do

The busy bees 🐝 at Beehive craft focused, bee-utiful productivity apps.

2Do is a personal task manager for macOS, iPhone, iPad and Android — designed and built by Fahad Gilani, who started it as a single-screen iPhone app back in 2009 and has been refining it by hand ever since. What it does has grown a lot over the years; the idea behind it hasn't really changed. Powerful when you need it, out of the way when you don't.

Beehive is a bootstrapped, independent studio. No committees, no investors, no growth-at-all-costs targets pushing things in odd directions — just careful, long-running work on a small set of apps for the people who rely on them every day.

Beehive also develops the award-winning Busy Apps — BusyCal and BusyContacts — for macOS and iOS. 2Do and BusyCal address different parts of your day in different ways, but they share a common belief: productivity software should feel powerful and simple at the same time. All three have been honoured by the press and featured by Apple over the years.

Recognized By the People Who Review Apps for a Living

In 2015, MacStories named 2Do its App of the Year — a serious, well-built task manager that handles complex projects without getting in the way of a quick grocery list. Apple has featured 2Do many times since, most recently in Apps We Love.

Recognition is one measure. The other is the writers, students, founders, parents and professionals who have trusted 2Do to organise their work and lives for more than fifteen years. Read the MacStories write-up.

Independent software, shaped over more than fifteen years by the ideas, feedback and quiet patience of the people who use it every day — and still going.
