I can't give you an answer, but what I can tell is that, unfortunately, being on iOS, you won't have a lot of options when it comes to FOSS apps.

Apple charges developers $100/year to be able to publish on the app store, so that gives very little incentives for iOS developers to publish their app without any kind of monetization, whether via a subscription, ads, or mass data gathering.

I have a lot of respect for FOSS apps on iOS, because not only do devs offer an app FOSS, but they're paying that $100/year out of their own pocket.

Joplin; it‘s actually more of a note-taking app with TODO functionality. If you want to sync across devices (there‘s a desktop app as well) you can select selfhosted options. Joplin is FOSS and doesn‘t collect data.

+1 for Joplin. I self host Joplin server as well as use the app across my Mac and iOS devices and it’s great.

I went down that rabbit hole once and it’s really hard to find a foss app that is enjoyable to use and actively maintained. Condution (https://www.condution.com/) seems to be one of them but I never tried it as it looks a bit too much for what I personally need.

Not open source but e2e encrypted and privacy focused is lunatask (https://lunatask.app/). They have a free plan and you can get access to the iOS beta (the app is fully functional). I don’t used it anymore but I paid for Lunatask and it helped a lot making order in my brain and switching from bloated apps to a more minimal todo approach. It’s highly opinionated, but it implements more than one “method”.

Currently I’m using https://github.com/sodenn/2do-txt because I switched to the todo.txt method, which better fits my need for a more minimal approach to those things. The app has ios/macOS version (with tauri build replacing electron) and you can sync with whatever you want (i use syncthing).

Hope it helps, the todo landscape on ios is a nightmare.

Standard Notes is the best notes app on the market. It's a cross platform and encrypted FOSS app which works great for to do lists.

I gave up and just use iOS’ native reminders app.. which is actually quite good.

[-] 2xsaiko@discuss.tchncs.de 2 points 1 year ago

Yup, and if you want to have control over your data/have the tasks on other devices just connect it to a CalDAV server.

Why not use the stock reminders since you are already on iO? You can also use this app. https://www.condution.com/

Edit: I saw it’s already recommended by another user.
