This seems odd for Yahoo to be building an SMS-based to-do. Seems very niche and less usable than other solutions, but I might be missing some key insight. Added to my invisible apps collection.

What, Yahoo! is still developing products? Also, how retro are these command-line style commands?? Remind [person] of [task] on [date] at [time] Remind me to [task] on [date] at [time] Show reminders Show reminders for [person/time] Show list Add item [name] Remove item [exact name] Remove item [number] Add member [name]

I love this idea. I've built a few SMS apps very similar to this for different clients and I've often wished I had something like it for home. SMS is so great for this sort of thing. Especially in remote locations where very few of my clients have smart phones. I just wish I could get this app to work. I get no response so far, from the app nor from support.

I *love* this. I prefer SMS to apps.

I am actually using this from past few days at home to maintain common grocery list. This is sweet and works well so far. 😃 I would'nt want to install another app to get some simple thing done. I was actually searching/thinking of making a web app to get this done but this SMS bot does it better. It is unusual to see big companies working on niche products like this but I am glad they did.

I can see the appeal of SMS with kids. But probably not enough to use this.

...And it's being shuttered at the end of September.
