To-Do List: Simple Task Manager with Local Storage | Free

A No hard limit. localStorage typically supports thousands of tasks.

A Tasks are displayed in the order they were added. Completed tasks appear with a strikethrough.

A This free to-do list allows you to easily filter your tasks. Simply click the 'Filter' option and select 'Active' or 'Pending' to display only uncompleted tasks. You can also choose to view 'Completed' tasks or 'All' tasks, providing a clean overview of your current priorities and helping you manage your daily productivity without distractions.

A This free to-do list prioritizes simplicity, so there isn't a direct edit button for existing tasks. If you need to modify an item, the easiest way is to delete the original task and then quickly add a new one with the updated details. This keeps the interface clean and efficient, focusing on adding, completing, and deleting tasks for straightforward task management.

A Your tasks automatically save in your browser. It uses something called localStorage. You don't need to hit a 'save' button after adding an item. So, if your computer suddenly shuts down, your to-do list should still be there when you reopen the browser. Just make sure you're using the same browser on the same computer.

A Clearing your browser history, cookies, or site data wipes localStorage for that domain. Your task list disappears permanently once you clear that data. There's no cloud backup or recovery option. If you're planning to clear your browser, copy your tasks to a text file first. That's your only safety net for this free tool.

A Yes, it works fully offline once loaded. Since everything saves to your browser's localStorage, no internet connection is needed after the page loads. You can add, complete, or delete tasks without wifi. Just remember that clearing your browser data will wipe everything, and there's no sync to another machine.

A This only happens if you're using private or incognito mode. Browsers wipe localStorage when the last private tab closes. So your tasks survive a normal browser restart but vanish after an incognito session ends. Stick to regular browsing if you want your list to stick around for more than one sitting.

A No, closing a normal browser tab won't delete anything. Your tasks stay saved in localStorage until you clear your browser data. The only exception is private or incognito mode — those wipe everything when the last private window closes. I've tested this myself with 50+ tasks, and they survived a full browser restart. Stick to regular browsing sessions if you want your list to persist.

A No, browser crashes don't touch your data. I've force-closed Chrome mid-session with 30 tasks active, and everything reappeared after restart. localStorage survives full system failures, not just tab closures. That said, if you're working on something critical for a workplace deadline, manually copy your list to a text file every few hours. No auto-backup exists here.
