A task manager that lives on your wallpaper, not in another app
Most to-do apps fail for one simple reason: you have to remember to open them. TaskWall flips that around by rendering your task list directly onto the screen you already check dozens of times a day, your phone’s Home Screen and Lock Screen.
Every feature on this page, from recurring tasks and carry-forward rules to the full Wallpaper Designer and streak analytics, is built around one goal: making your goals impossible to ignore without adding another app to remember. Pick a template, add your first task, and your wallpaper starts working for you immediately.
Whether you’re tracking daily habits, long-term goals, recurring chores, or important dates like birthdays and anniversaries, TaskWall keeps it visible, current, and entirely under your control. Free covers the essentials with unlimited tasks; Premium unlocks the full template library, deeper analytics, and more room on your wallpaper.
Feature questions, answered.
What exactly shows up on my wallpaper?
Your live task list, rendered straight onto your Home Screen, Lock Screen, or both. You choose how many tasks appear (3, 5, or 7), the layout, the fonts, and the background, and TaskWall keeps it current as you complete and add tasks throughout the day.
How many wallpaper templates does TaskWall include?
TaskWall ships with 50+ built-in templates spanning photo backgrounds, gradients, minimal looks, and dark styles. Free includes a starter set, and Premium unlocks the full library plus custom photo backgrounds from your own gallery.
Can I fully customise how my wallpaper looks?
Yes. The Wallpaper Designer gives you control over background (solid, gradient, or photo), card style, corner radius and opacity, layout and spacing, typography (including Editorial, Modern, and Terminal font styles), date and time formatting, and a personalised greeting.
What's the difference between Free and Premium?
Free covers unlimited tasks, a starter template set, and up to 3 tasks on your wallpaper. Premium unlocks all 50+ templates, custom photo backgrounds, up to 7 tasks on your wallpaper, month-level analytics with a 4-week trend, and category performance breakdowns.
Does TaskWall support recurring and carried-forward tasks?
Yes. Set tasks to repeat Daily, on Weekdays, Weekly, or Monthly, and choose how unfinished tasks behave at day's end with carry-forward mode: Auto, Ask me, or Archive.
What kind of analytics does TaskWall track?
TaskWall tracks your current and best streaks, total tasks completed, completion rate, a daily completion chart for the week, a monthly snapshot, category breakdowns, and a 4-week trend line, filterable by Week, Month, or All Time.
Can I track birthdays and other important dates?
Yes. Add birthdays, anniversaries, or any custom date with its own emoji and color, set it to repeat annually or just once, and TaskWall will surface it on your wallpaper automatically as it approaches.
Is my data backed up if I switch phones?
With an account, your tasks sync to the cloud across sessions and devices. You can also export all your data as JSON at any time from Settings, and a full reset is always available if you want to start clean.
Your goals deserve somewhere you'll actually look.
