QuickTick lives in the background, and pops with a shortcut from any app or screen.

Tasks stay on your Mac by default, or turn on Apple Reminders sync.
Universal binary, ~3 MB. No account. No tracking.
Features
No Dock icon, no window to manage. Press ⌘⇧Space from any app and the panel opens on whatever screen you're using. Press it again to dismiss.
Type "call mom tomorrow at 5pm" or "taxes next Friday" and QuickTick picks out the date as you go, showing it inline before you hit Enter. No date pickers.
Turn on sync and every task becomes a real Apple reminder, carried over iCloud to your iPhone, iPad, and Siri. Leave it off and nothing leaves your Mac.
Switch lists from the header, search with a keystroke, and hide finished tasks when you want them out of the way. With sync on, your lists match Apple Reminders.
Nine built-in themes, including Dracula, Catppuccin Mocha, Nord, and Tokyo Night, plus a JSON format for building your own. See them →
Built in SwiftUI as a ~3 MB universal binary. No Electron, no account, no telemetry. Your tasks stay on your Mac and in your own Reminders.
Themes
Want your own? Drop a JSON file in QuickTick's themes folder, set the appearance, surface, and a few colors, then re-pick it. You only have to define what you want to change. QuickTick fills in the rest.
Shortcuts
Summon or dismiss the panel from anywhere. Rebindable in Settings.
Add the task. The due date you typed (tomorrow at 5pm) comes with it.
Move through the list without touching the mouse. ↩ opens the selected task.
Jump to the search field and filter the current list as you type.
Switch scopes in a keystroke: Today, Scheduled, Flagged, or any of your own lists.
Checked off the wrong thing? Undo brings it straight back.
That's not all of them. Press ⌘? inside QuickTick for the full cheat sheet.
