Help with Top 3 Priorities: Daily To Do

Getting started

Your first morning

  1. Open the app and go through the three short onboarding screens.
  2. Choose a time for the morning pick reminder, then allow notifications if you want reminders. You can skip both.
  3. On Today, tap an empty slot, type a task and add it. Add up to three.
  4. Tap the circle next to a task to check it off.

Tasks you add but do not pick for today wait in Later. Open Later from Today, then add one to today when a slot is free. On the next day, anything unfinished asks before it carries over.

Top 3 Priorities: Daily To Do is coming soon to the App Store.

Reminders and notifications

How reminders work

  • Morning pick: one reminder at the time you choose, only on days with open slots. Tap Pick now to open the pick sheet.
  • Task reminders: each of today's three can have its own reminder time. Turn Remind me on in the task editor to set its time; the default time in Settings is used when you switch a reminder on.
  • On the notification: tap Done to check the task off, or Later today to be reminded again in an hour.
  • Nothing fires when you add a task, and nothing fires for tasks you did not pick.
  • Reminders are scheduled on your iPhone, so they work without an account or an internet connection.

If you turned notifications off

The app works fully without notifications. When they are off, Today and the app's Settings show a Notifications are off row.

  1. Tap Notifications are off on Today or in the app's Settings. It opens the app's notification settings.
  2. Turn on Allow Notifications.
  3. Or go to the Settings app, tap Notifications, then tap Top 3 To Do and turn on Allow Notifications.

If reminders still do not arrive

  1. Focus. A Focus such as Work or Sleep can silence the app. In the Settings app, tap Focus, choose the Focus, tap Apps, then add Top 3 To Do under Allow Notifications From.
  2. Scheduled Summary. If Scheduled Summary is on and the app is in it, reminders wait for the summary. In the Settings app, tap Notifications, tap Top 3 To Do and choose Immediate Delivery, or leave the app out of the summary.
  3. Reminder times. A reminder only fires for a task picked for today, at a time that has not passed yet. Check the time on the task.
  4. Keep the app updated. Install the latest version from the App Store, and keep iOS up to date.

Pro and purchases

Free and Pro

Choosing your three, reminders, repeating tasks and completion are free every day, with no limits. Pro adds Home Screen and Lock Screen widgets, start dates, a history of the days you won, and themes.

  • Pro Monthly: $5.99 a month, renews automatically unless canceled
  • Pro Yearly: $19.99 a year, with a 7-day free trial for new subscribers, renews automatically unless canceled

Restore a purchase

On a new iPhone, or after reinstalling the app, open the app's Settings and tap Restore purchases. Make sure you are signed in with the Apple Account you used to buy Pro.

If a purchase says it is waiting for approval, it needs a parent or guardian to approve it through Ask to Buy. Pro turns on once it is approved.

Cancel the subscription

  1. Open the Settings app on your iPhone.
  2. Tap your name at the top, then tap Subscriptions.
  3. Choose Top 3 Priorities: Daily To Do, then tap Cancel Subscription.
  4. Cancel at least 24 hours before the trial or the current period ends to avoid the next charge.

Pro Lifetime is a one-time purchase, so there is nothing to cancel.

Refunds

Apple processes every purchase. To request a refund, go to reportaproblem.apple.com (opens in a new tab) and sign in with your Apple Account.

Data and privacy

Your tasks stay on your iPhone, in the app's own storage. There is no account, no server of ours, no analytics and no ads. Details are in the privacy policy.

Tasks do not sync between devices in this version. Deleting the app deletes your tasks with it.

To delete one task, open it, tap Delete task and confirm.

Troubleshooting

A task I checked off is gone

A task that does not repeat leaves Today and Later once it is done. A repeating task waits in Later, in the Repeating group, until its next day.

Yesterday's tasks are not on Today

Unfinished tasks ask before they carry over. If you chose to leave them, they wait in Later. Open Later and add them to today.

Pro plans do not load

Plans load from the App Store. Check your internet connection, then tap Try again.

Pro is not active after buying

Open the app's Settings and tap Restore purchases while signed in with the Apple Account you used to buy.
