SnapTodo

What is SnapTodo?

SnapTodo is a visual planning tool that blends a weekly calendar, a task list, and light AI assistance into one interface. You drag tasks across days, drop items into a "Someday" list for future ideas, and let AI help tidy up your schedule. It also includes friend-only sharing, a booking page that turns incoming requests into tasks, and Google Calendar sync that actually works as expected. The product was built by a small indie team and is now in read-only archive mode — the live backends have been shut down, but the UI snapshot remains as a demonstration of the original experience.

Who it's for

• Visual planners — people who prefer dragging tasks across a weekly calendar rather than managing a flat list
• Light collaborators — users who want friend-only sharing and a booking page that converts requests into tasks without heavy team tooling
• Indie tool enthusiasts — those who appreciate personality-driven, small-team products and are curious about the design choices behind SnapTodo

Key features

Weekly calendar + task list hybrid

Tasks live directly on a weekly grid, so you can see your entire week at a glance. Drag any task to a different day to reschedule instantly — no menus, no dropdowns.

Someday list for future ideas

Items that don't fit this week go into a separate "Someday" list. It's a dedicated space for dreams, bucket-list items, or anything you want to revisit later without cluttering your active schedule.

AI-assisted planning

Ask the AI to "plan my week" and it will rearrange tasks intelligently. The AI tidies up whatever your brain didn't organize, making it easier to start the day with a clear plan.

Google Calendar sync

Sync your Google Calendar to see everything in one place. The sync behaves reliably, so your external events and SnapTodo tasks coexist without conflicts.

What stands out

"Core retention sat around the mid‑70s. That says more about your time in the app than about us."

This one-liner from the shutdown page captures SnapTodo's honest, personality-driven approach. The team openly acknowledges that the product worked well for those who used it — retention was strong — but the realities of running two products on a small team meant SnapTodo couldn't move fast enough. The result is a tool that feels personal, not corporate, and that honesty is rare in the productivity space.

Worth checking out if…

You're interested in visual weekly planning with drag-and-drop simplicity, or you want to see how a small indie team approached the calendar-plus-tasks problem. The archived UI snapshot at snaptodo.app still shows the core interaction — dragging tasks, the Someday list, and the AI prompt — so you can explore the design even without live backends. If you're curious about the successor product, SnapDeck, that's where ongoing work now lives.
