Ask HN: Why isn't any todo-app working?

Title explains it all. I've used many many todo-apps but neither one of them has improved my productivity.

Why is that and (I'm assuming) why does everyone have the same problem?

Eh? I've been using 2Do for about 7 months now and it's made me immeasurably more productive and less stressed (now that I don't have to keep todo items in my head).

Many people have their own app/site/script/method that works well for them. It's just a matter of finding the right one to match your workflow.

Great! You're one of the few I think. I've heard many people talking about "todo apps don't help" and "I'm getting more unproductive". I wonder why.
