Not for me – Wunderlist: To-Do List & Tasks Review

I appreciate that nearly everyone in the world is on line all the time. However, I’m not everyone. In fact I only have the absolute minimum amount of data in my plan just to get my phone to work as a phone. I have 1gb of data and I never use it because I disable cellular, Bluetooth and WiFi on my phone. If I need to go online for something I do it at home using WiFi and my iPad. I needed a reminder only because the one that came with the iPhone is nearly unusable for its intended purpose.i installed Wunderlist since it has good reviews and I didn’t have to buy it just to try it. Mind you, I’m more than willing to pay for apps but if I can’t try them out first then I won’t bother. The cost of an app is never an issue at all if it serves my need. So when the very first thing I see after installing the app is a login/create an account requirement. There’s no way to bypass it, I have to do that just to see what the app provides. I immediately deleted it because the very last thing I want is to have to have another account out there somewhere, another password to remember, another annoyance. Any app I have needs to save the data locally, on the device, nowhere else. Period. I’m sure this is a good app, it gets good reviews, but being forced to use it only online is a non-starter for me.
