Hi. Sorry my bad English. (and I don't know how to post images here)
%subj%

Similar to the ideal functionality (Toodledo Lists):

handy, simple, but powerful: enough data types (stars!) + filter

Disadvantages:
Do not have standalone PC version (offline)
$30/year is too expensive for full lists (I don't need other features.

Alternatives (similar to nothing).
ListPro - don't updated since 2012, do not have Android version, old-style interface
Noteliner - don't updated since 2013, do not have Android version, ugly, bugged
InfoQube - unhandy, do not have Android version, overloaded.
UV outliner -don't make me laugh.

I can't find no more... Dozens of single column ToDo, Task Managers, etc. But all I need is handy flexible multi-column list.
Can you help me to find required app?

I really can't think of any (not across both platforms). It's a shame you're not in the world of Mac... ;-)

Thinking laterally, you could try Softmaker Office. They have a very nice spreadsheet app that runs on PC and Android (and have just released an HD version for Android). I think the spreadsheet app even does folding (like an outliner). It could certainly be used as a multi-column list manager.

Amusingly enough, they DON'T have a Mac version...

Hi Amihai, and welcome to the forum.

I assume that you want outlining as well, otherwise any spreadsheet would do.

I suggest you take a look at MyInfo http://www.milenix.com/myinfo/features Its colums are flexible and the programme is overall very powerful without being overwhelming.

MyInfo is PC-only but has an excellent web publishing feature. You can export in dynamic HTML and open the exported files in your Andoid browser. Unfortunately you will not be able to make changes and sync them back to the PC.

Hi Amihai,

You may like Moo.do http://moo.do - it's a simple outliner that lets you view in any number of columns with different searches. You can use it as a planner with the built in Agenda and it can integrate with your contacts to make it easy to call or email people. There's apps on iOS and Android and you can use it on Windows either on the web or in the Chrome app.

I'm one of the founders so you can ask me if you have any questions or feature requests :).

Looks powerful, but no android, manual publish to access online. I'm still searching.

Just lists. Simple task and no more alternatives?

Maybe http://writersblocks.com/ Though, it's pricy.

Got it.

Great for online multi-column lists.
Developing looks like freeze ((

mysimplegrid does look interesting... kind of Ginko for data. As you say, sadly, it looks like development has stopped. Also, I find it difficult to trust an online service like this that does not provide information about what the fees are going to be. Finally, it says that you can try it free without registering, but when you click the TRY IT button it takes you right to a dialog box where you have to register to go forward.

If you find anything like mysimplegrid from a different developer, I would be interested in learning about it.

Thank you.

Steve Z.

Take a look at XMind. Its “matrix” structure allows you to display collapsible nodes inside a grid, which combines the power of outlines with a spreadsheet. This is one of the most useful ways to display information that I’ve ever found.

You have to spend time fooling with the features to really appreciate what it can do. I’ve been using it to create historical timelines and am now starting to use it for a “Personal Kanban” layout.

Too bad you can’t post screenshots here. I could show you how I’m using.

I haven’t tried filtering so I don’t know if its capability meets your needs.
