It could be an issue of discoverability too. Maybe they just haven't found the to-do app that does what they want, and it's easier to just... make one from scratch.

Which is not getting better.

I'd pay you 10€ for a TODO app that improved my life meaningfully. It would obviously need to have great UX and be stable. Those are table stakes.

I don't have the time to look at all these apps though. If somebody tells me they made a great TODO app, I'm already mentally filtering them out. There's just too much noise here.

Does your TODO app solve any meaningful problem beyond the bare minimum? Does it solve your procrastination? Does it remind you at the right time?

If it doesn't answer this in the first 2 seconds of your pitch you're out.
