I've found Toodledo (http://www.toodledo.com/) to be the only cross-platform service that supports Getting Things Done (GTD) well. It leaves some things to be desired, but I haven't seen anything else out there that both

1) Supports a GTD workflow

2) Works on both iOS and Android (but also has a web interface).

Toodledo syncs well with apps like 2Do (available for both iOS and Android) and Pocket Informant.

If you (or anybody else) is interested in migrating to Toodledo, I wrote a Ruby client library for the Toodledo API that may be handy - ping me and I can send you the link.

And if anybody has other suggestions for services that fit both of the above requirements, I'd love to know.

Todoist (http://todoist.com/) is flexible, and can do both of those. They've got native apps for ios and android, and good integration with gmail. It has good support for recurring dates, subtasks, and some other niceities, but is also good as a basic list keeper.

Thanks for recommending us! :-)

Our desktops apps are really useful to structuring coding projects and I use it all the time while coding (as Todoist supports shortcuts and outline like nested structures) - - and it's really fast to use. Here's one of my recent projects, for an idea: http://cl.ly/image/1C2p1j1b0r3B

This is great because you can assign due dates and priorities to sub-tasks - - and you can hide/show Todoist while you develop (via a global keyboard shortcut).
