Amazing Marvin is a personal productivity app for organizing tasks and planning work. It supports recurring tasks, time estimates, color coding, focus sessions, time blocking, workload planning, and review reports. Users can choose Day Planning, List-Based, Spontaneous, or GTD workflows, and adjust more than 300 settings, layouts, themes, colors, and feature controls. Calendar sync is available, and imports are supported from Todoist, TickTick, Asana, ClickUp, and Google Calendar. The app runs on the web, Windows, macOS, Linux, iOS, and Android. Marvin Pro starts at $8 per month; annual billing costs $96 per year and saves 33%. The 14-day trial provides full access without a credit card, but after the trial users cannot add or complete tasks until subscribing. Support includes personal email contact, and community channels include Facebook Group, Discord, and Reddit. Users can cancel through settings at any time.

Lunatask is an encrypted, cloud-based personal organization app for Windows, macOS, Linux, iOS, and Android, with API and browser-extension support. It combines to-do lists, habit tracking, journaling, life tracking, notes, and relationship reminders. Task workflows include a Kanban-like approach, Must/Should/Want, the Eisenhower Matrix, timers, and work-in-progress limits. It also tracks moods, emotions, energy, and stress. Notes and notebooks can be PIN-protected, and calendar connections include Google, Outlook, iCloud, Proton, Fastmail, Hey, Facebook Events, iCal/ics, and CalDAV; these currently sync one way into Lunatask. Free includes 2 Areas of Life, 7 Daily Habits, and 30 Relationships. Premium costs $6 a month when billed annually or 8.00 USD monthly, adding unlimited areas, habits, and relationships plus calendar integrations and additional planning tools. Data is encrypted on the device before cloud storage, although task metadata remains unencrypted. Offline use is temporary, with later synchronization.
