Its been long in the making, but the time to say farewell to one of the best and rightly most popular task apps is here. Wunderlist is finally going down, and soon it will be Wunderlist Microsoft To Do App. Microsoft bought the company that created Wunderlist five years ago. Ever since that purchase, there was a lot of speculation as to the destiny of Wunderlist. But, in December we finally found out the answer to all that speculation.
Why Should You Transfer Your Data from Wunderlist
You might be wondering why you should transfer your data, because it is easier to transfer your data than to start and create all your obligations all over again. A lot of people have used Wunderlist for pretty much any task they had. Some even planned their free time with Wunderlist. For example, they scheduled what Tv shows or movies to watch and when. And finally, the To Do app is the natural successor to Wunderlist, with a lot of features native to Wunderlist already added to the To Do app.
How To Transfer Your Data to Microsoft To Do
Here’s the steps needed to transfer our Wunderlist data to Microsoft To Do: First and foremost you have to download the new app to your device. Once the app has downloaded and installed, you will need to sign in with your Microsoft account. It is OK if you do not have one, you can create one on the spot without any issues. In addition to that, you can use your Live or Xbox account as well. Once you have signed in to the new To Do app, in the bottom of your screen there should be a blue pop up that asks you if you have come to the To Do app via the Wunderlist app, and if you click there you can start your Wunderlist tasks import feature. It might take a few minutes wait, but it is worth it.
Alternatives to Wunderlist
If you don't want to transfer your data to the successor of Wunderlist or want to continue but with other apps, you always have the option of trying other task apps.
Todoist
A great alternative that is focused on goals, productivity, and getting task after task done is ToDoIst. Another plus of this app is that it has an import function which means that you can also import all your tasks and data from your Wunderlist account. The app is free to download for both Android and iOS
Things
Things is an app that is exclusive for iOS users, all those who prefer to live in an Apple-only world. None the less it is a great app to keep track of all your goals, obligations, trackers, etc. It also gives you the opportunity to import all your Wunderlist data. Things is one of the best, if not the best task app in the world. But, it also comes with a price. For example, it costs 10$ for iPhone users and 20$ iPad users.
