Instead of using separate apps for different aspects of your life, Benji provides an all-in-one solution for todos, habits, events, health tracking, and much more, going beyond Things 3's more focused approach.
Things 3 has several limitations compared to Benji:
- Locked to the Apple ecosystem — limiting accessibility across different devices
- Requires separate purchases — you need to buy it individually for iPhone, iPad, and Mac, increasing the overall cost
- No true collaboration features — sharing tasks or projects requires sharing your account password, compromising privacy and security
Benji, on the other hand, works seamlessly across all devices and platforms with built-in sharing capabilities.
Feature Comparison
Benji goes far beyond traditional todo lists. Your shopping shouldn't be managed by checking off todos. Your habits are not a recurring task. Your cleaning routine is not a todo list. Benji is a comprehensive life management system that integrates all your productivity needs into one place.
