To-do

My to-do lists have become a little scattered lately. I appear to have about three different places where I keep tasks, and I am having trouble staying on top of them.

I think I have got into this situation because each separate task list has a specific feature that suits my purpose. For example, it might be that I can easily add a task by sending an email, or it might be that I can set up a due date and get notifications on my phone. Having multiple to-do lists might make the creation of tasks easier, however, it makes the management of tasks more difficult.

I am trying many different apps to see if I can find one that suits most of my needs. Unfortunately, I often get excited by a new app, only to be disappointed when I get into the detail and find that a fundamental feature is missing. I suspect I will never be quite satisfied with any application I use. Any off-the-shelf solution is trying to cater to a broad range of needs, and no solution will be as bespoke as I would like it to be. I will keep looking, and hopefully, I can find that killer app that suits most of my needs.
The send an email to add a todo sounds interesting. Would you mind sharing your three apps/methods? :)

I have this exact problem. I'm in the process of adopting a new task manager right now, in fact.

 I have been using Microsoft To-Do, works well with email, Evernote, mainly for bills and non-urgent stuff and checklists on OneNote, which can be a bit fiddly.
