Question Ranking
Pros
Pro Easy to use
The interface is clear and smooth.
Pro Unique and interesting design
The bubble design format is simple to understand visually and is effective in keeping track of ones to-do list.
Pro Gamification of tasks
To Round turns task-completion into a game-like experience, which is good for those who are motivated by this type of positive feedback. It can be a little distracting or annoying for users who want an even simpler process.
Pro Convenient widget
The app features an Android widget that you can place on your homescreen to view your current tasks even more quickly.
Pro Good reminder feature
You can enable push notifications that make sure you never forget a single task.
Pro Visualisation of tasks
The app uses bubbles to represent tasks. The bigger the bubble, the more important the task is.
Pro Multiple Platforms (Windows, Linux, macOS, Android, Firefox, Chrome)
Turtl has applications for all the major operating systems, as well as Android. In addition, there are extensions available for Firefox and Chrome that cooperate with the downloadable applications.
Pro Open source
The app is licensed under GPLv3 making it open source. This means that anyone can use the code and contribute. This also makes it easy to use on one's own server or for company solutions.
Pro Good security
After assigning a password to your account in Turtl, a key is created to encrypt the entire account. No data is stored on their servers meaning they have no access to unencrypted content. This is a huge leg up when comparing to other Evernote alternatives.
Cons
Con No web-based access
The website demonstrates how the app works, but doesn't allow you to access any of your own to-dos.
Con No desktop app
So far no apps for desktops have been launched.
Con No iOS app
While many other operating systems have a client, iOS does not have one yet (though it is planned).
Con No image embedding
Instead of image embeddings, there's a sort of poor man's substitute: image + description. If you add an image, you can create a description of any size and with all the formatting features. It can be used instead of image embedding but much more limited: only one image and only at the very top.
Con Internet dependent
Requires Internet connection to initiate offline mode, loses access to notes without Internet or server.
