I love todo.txt and have been trying to use the original command line tool under linux and then the Chrome Extension and the Android App for my phone and tables. I try to keep all the files in sync using google drive, but for some reason the Chrome Extension and Android App won't stay in sync with updates I make from the linux command line. When I remove the file link under either and then to add it back it no longer sees the file in the google drive directory. I've been a supporter for a while, but can't seem to get it to work together, so I'm giving up on the Chrome Extension and Android app and moving to google tasks for tasks I need to keep synced across all my devices. :-(

This extension and its android app are best todo.txt tools in existence.

I've been using a different tool on IOS and MAC and when I switched to a chromebox for a few months while my mac was being repaired needed something to manage my todo.txt file on dropbox. This did the job beautifully - 1. great implementation, integrated perfectly with my swiftodo workflow, 2. VERY responsive developer. If the chromebox or my elementary linux system become part of my workflow this will definitetly be part of my toolchest.
