Synced across your devices

Set a reminder and SideList nudges you with a local notification — even when you are offline.

Answers before you buy
The honest questions people ask before a $2.99 purchase — answered straight.
Which devices does SideList work on?
iPhone, iPad and Mac — and it runs on Apple Vision too. It requires iOS 17.6, iPadOS 17.6, macOS 13.5 or visionOS 1.3 and later.
How does syncing work? Do I need an account?
No account and no sign-up. Sync happens through your own private iCloud, between the devices signed in with your Apple ID. Nothing is sent to the developer — there are no developer servers.
Does it work offline?
Yes. SideList works fully offline and your changes sync as soon as your devices are back online.
Why pay when Reminders and free to-do apps exist?
Free apps usually pay for themselves with accounts, ads or upsells that turn task management into a project of its own. SideList captures a task in under a second and never asks for your data. You are paying for the absence of friction — once.
Is it really one-time? Are updates included?
Yes. One payment, no subscription and no expiry. All current and future updates are included at no extra cost.
Is my data private?
Yes. SideList collects no data at all. Apple’s App Store privacy label reads “Data Not Collected”: your tasks stay on your devices and in your private iCloud.
What if it is not for me?
Apps sold on the App Store are covered by Apple’s standard refund policy. If SideList is not the right fit, you can request a refund through Apple — no hard feelings.
