Unfortunately, Wunderlist shut down in 2020, much to the disappointment of its users. But don't mourn! If you're looking for a tool that does what it did, there's hope. Read on to learn exactly what happened, and to get our recommendations on a quality task management software to replace Wunderlist.

What is replacing Wunderlist?

Five years after Microsoft purchased it, Wunderlist is no more. The popular cloud-based task management app has been officially replaced by Microsoft To Do, which is our pick as a replacement for Wunderlist users.

Why is Wunderlist being discontinued?

Microsoft says it decided to now move to close down Wunderlist because it has stopped releasing new features for the app and, as the app ages, it will become more difficult to maintain. In addition, it wants to at last focus its full energies on making its To Do app the best alternative to Wunderlist.
