Simple To-Do List Chrome Extension

Simple To-Do List Browser Extension

Built for Honest, Daily Task Lists

The Simple To-Do List keeps your day organised inside a clean popup that opens with the browser. Furthermore, tasks live locally and survive restarts — therefore, you stop relying on scattered sticky notes, chat threads, or noisy task apps. Consequently, focus stays on doing, not managing.

Built for Honest, Daily Task Lists

01

Quick Add & Tick Off

Open the popup, type a task, and press enter. Furthermore, ticking a task strikes it through immediately — therefore, capturing and clearing items feels effortless rather than ceremonial, which is exactly what a daily list should be.

02

Reorder & Prioritise

Drag tasks into the order that matches your real priorities for the day. Moreover, completed items can be auto-tucked at the bottom — consequently, the top of the list always shows what genuinely needs attention next.

03

Local & Persistent

Your list lives in browser storage and survives restarts. As a result, the list is right there the moment you open a new window — no login, no syncing screen, no friction between thinking of a task and writing it down.

Your Day, Without It vs With It

Without

Sticky notes and forgotten tasks

  • Hunting through chats for that one thing you promised to do.
  • Heavy task apps that demand setup before you can write a single line.
  • Sticky notes that vanish behind a windowed browser.
With To-Do List

One quiet list always at hand

  • One click in the toolbar opens today’s list immediately.
  • Type, tick, drag — no projects, tags, or onboarding to learn.
  • Tasks persist locally and never leave your browser.

Moments It Saves Your Day

Morning · Planning

Drafting today’s three real priorities

You open the popup with your first coffee and capture the three things that actually matter today. Furthermore, drag-to-order locks the sequence — therefore, the first hour starts with the highest-impact task already obvious.

Mid-Day · Quick Capture

Catching a task during a meeting

A teammate asks for a small follow-up while you are sharing a tab. Moreover, one click later it is captured — consequently, the meeting continues uninterrupted and the request will not silently disappear by the afternoon.

Evening · Wrap-Up

Closing the day with a clean review

You scan the ticked tasks, archive the completed ones, and roll over what remains for tomorrow. In addition, the unfinished items stay in priority order — therefore, the next day starts with momentum instead of confusion.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. Tasks live in browser storage, so closing the window or restarting the device does not erase them. Furthermore, the list opens in the same state the next time you click the toolbar icon. Therefore, the popup behaves like a notebook on your desk rather than a temporary scratchpad.
By default, tasks live only on the device where they were created. Moreover, the extension does not require an account or upload data anywhere. Consequently, the list stays private and predictable — which is exactly what a focused, distraction-free task tool should feel like during a busy working day.
Yes. Drag any task up or down to match the real priority of your day. Furthermore, completed items can settle at the bottom automatically. Therefore, the top of the list always reflects the next thing that genuinely needs attention, instead of becoming a chronological log of every captured idea.
A single action removes all completed tasks at once. Therefore, the list stays light and easy to scan. Moreover, you can also delete individual items if you prefer to clean up gradually. Consequently, the popup never becomes the visual equivalent of a cluttered inbox you are afraid to open.
No. The extension stays idle until you open the popup. Furthermore, no scripts are injected into webpages, and no background polling occurs. Therefore, ordinary browsing performance is unaffected, and the toolbar icon never becomes a hidden source of memory pressure on long uptime sessions across the entire day.
Yes. Tasks live in local storage on your device. Furthermore, the extension does not request network permissions and does not log anything. Consequently, capturing private notes, sensitive reminders, or work that you do not wish to discuss with a SaaS vendor stays comfortably contained inside your own browser.
Right-click the toolbar icon and choose Remove, or open the browser extensions page and remove it from there. Furthermore, locally stored tasks are cleared with it. Therefore, no leftover files remain. Consequently, reinstalling later starts from a clean state, exactly as if it were a fresh first install.
