FAQ

Q: Can data be exported?

Absolutely. The app supports exporting all data. In the Settings page, you will find both “Full Export” and “Full Import”.

When you click Full Export, the data will be saved in JSON format and stored as a file. When switching to a new device, you can use this feature to migrate your data. Alternatively, if you decide to stop using the app at some point, you can ask an AI to write a Python script to convert the exported data into whatever format you prefer.

Q: What's the difference between queue mode and rotation mode?

In queue mode, the first item is output and then removed each time — perfect for sequential checklists. For example, watching a different YouTube video each day for listening practice: just add the URLs, and a new one appears daily. In rotation mode, items cycle through without deletion — ideal for rotating schedules like studying different subjects in turn.

Q: Is there a paid version? What limitations does the free version have?

All currently released features are free forever, with a limit of 100 plans and 15 task generations per hour. A future paid version will offer cloud sync, subtasks, and more — with no plan limit and 300 task generations per hour.

Q: I don't know YAML. Can I still use PlanTodo?

Absolutely — use our client with a point-and-click interface and natural language descriptions. No manual YAML editing needed. That said, PlanTodo''s syntax is also very simple and intuitive. For example, "brush teeth every day" only takes two lines: desc: Brush teeth in the morning and every: day. You''ll pick up the basics in minutes, and advanced features are well-documented with examples.
