What you get

You get a clear path from a big goal to finished tasks.

Milestones gives you a way to turn a personal project into smaller, trackable stages. You can give each milestone its own tasks and due dates, then check progress to see what still needs attention. That helps you keep a launch or deadline in view without treating everything as one long to-do list.

You can capture a task with a title, due date, and tag, then return to what you were doing. When you want to review your work visually, you can move cards through statuses on a kanban board. Tags let you pull together related tasks across projects, so you can narrow your attention when several projects are underway.

You can keep working without an internet connection and pick up your projects on your Mac, iPhone, or iPad. Your changes save locally and sync through your own iCloud account when you're online, without requiring a separate Milestones account.

  • Make big goals manageable

    You can split a project into milestones with tasks and due dates, making the remaining work easier to understand.

  • See where work stands

    You can check milestone progress or use a kanban board to see task statuses and decide what to tackle next.

  • Find related work

    You can tag, filter, and group tasks across projects to focus on a particular kind of work.

  • Keep working offline

    You can update projects without a connection; your changes save locally and sync through iCloud when you're back online.

Best for

  • You’re planning a personal project with several stages
  • You’re preparing for a launch or deadline
  • You switch between Mac, iPhone, and iPad

Skip it if

You probably don't need it if a simple checklist covers your work and you don't need milestones or project progress tracking.
