Todoist Task Management

Todoist free plan: US $0 a month, up to 5 active personal projects

Todoist's Beginner plan costs US $0 and has no trial to start, because it is already free. It suits one person who keeps a short list of projects and does not need a team workspace.

What you get

  • The Beginner plan is listed at US $0, and Todoist shows its prices in USD.[1]
  • Up to 5 active personal projects, sub-projects included.[2]
  • 3 custom filter views and up to 5 people per personal project.[1]
  • Task reminders, 1 week of activity history and file uploads up to 5 MB.[1]
  • 10 Ramble and Task Capture Assist sessions a month, shared between the two features.[2]

Who qualifies and the limits

  • The free plan has no trial period. Todoist's plans FAQ lists the Beginner trial as not applicable.[3]
  • If you move down to Beginner from a paid plan, projects above the 5-project limit become view-only until you upgrade again or archive or delete some.[3]

How to claim it

  1. Open the pricing page on todoist.com and find the Beginner column, which is priced at US $0.
  2. Choose the sign-up option in the Beginner column and follow the prompts.
  3. Create your first projects, keeping to the limit of 5 active personal projects, sub-projects included.
  4. Upgrade only when you hit a limit. Paid plans are on the same pricing page.

Our take

The free plan suits a short personal list. Five active projects and one week of activity history are tight for long-running work, and team features need a paid plan. Pro (7 days) and Business (14 days) have free trials if you want to test more.

Todoist deal: questions

Is there a free trial of a paid Todoist plan?

Yes. Todoist's plans FAQ lists a 7-day free trial of Pro and a 14-day free trial of Business. The Beginner plan itself has no trial because it is free.

Do I need a credit card for the free plan?

Todoist's plans FAQ does not say whether a card is needed to sign up for Beginner. Check the sign-up prompts before you start.

What happens to my projects if I move from a paid plan to the free plan?

Projects above the free plan's limit of 5 active personal projects become view-only until you upgrade again or archive or delete some.

Is there a promo code for the free plan?

Todoist's pricing page lists no promo code. The free plan costs US $0, so no code is needed to start.
