Udle vs TickTick
Habits and tasks in one place - and a reason to keep going.
TickTick is the closest mainstream app to what Udle does: real task management with a habit tracker and a Pomodoro timer in the same product. The difference is where the motivation comes from, and what the free plan actually gives you.
| Compare | Udle | TickTick |
|---|---|---|
| Planning model | Inbox, projects, folders, subtasks, tags, defer and due dates, perspectives, weekly review | Lists, folders, subtasks, tags, smart lists, and natural-language date parsing |
| Habits + planning | Habits, projects, focus, and rewards share one model | Native habit tracker, but habits and their statistics are Premium features |
| Focus | Focus sessions that feed the same progression as your habits | Built-in Pomodoro timer with focus statistics on Premium |
| Motivation | Optional idle RPG; Mana comes only from real upkeep, and combat pays zero | An achievement score and streaks; no game layer |
| Free plan | The planner and habits are part of the free plan | Capped at roughly 9 lists and 99 tasks per list, without habit statistics, Pomodoro, or calendar sync |
| Platforms | Modern browser plus desktop app; one cloud account across supported devices | Web, macOS, Windows, iOS, Android, and browser extensions |
| API & agents | Personal API tokens and a global CLI for agents, Codex, Claude, and OpenCode | Open API for third-party integrations |
| Price | Free plan; Pro is $4.99/month or $49.90/year | Premium is about $35.99 per year |
The honest short version
Choose TickTick for a mature, broadly available app with calendar sync and a solid Pomodoro timer. Choose Udle when you want habits and projects in one model rather than two features, and a progression world that only pays for real upkeep.
