# Is there a Things 3 web app? What to use instead *Updated 2026-09-27 · Published 2026-06-12 · Matthew Blode* No. Things 3 has no web version, and Things Cloud only syncs Apple devices. What you can do from a browser, and a browser app that keeps working offline. --- > **TL;DR:** No. Things 3 has no web version, and Cultured Code lists "the Internet (through a web browser)" as unsupported ([Cultured Code's device list](https://culturedcode.com/things/support/articles/2803552/), last checked 27 September 2026). From a browser you can send a to-do to your Things Inbox, but you can't see or complete your list. [Done Bear's web app](/web) runs Inbox through Someday in a browser and reopens offline once it has loaded. ## Things 3 has no web version Things 3 runs on Mac, iPhone, iPad, Apple Watch, and Apple Vision Pro. [Cultured Code's device list](https://culturedcode.com/things/support/articles/2803552/) names Windows, Android, Linux, and the web browser as unsupported. There is no read-only web view either. People expect one because Things has a cloud service. [Things Cloud](https://culturedcode.com/things/support/articles/2803586/) is sync only: it keeps your Apple devices in step with each other. Cultured Code's [Things Cloud login article](https://culturedcode.com/things/support/articles/2997514/) says your to-dos can only be viewed inside the Things app. There is no page where you sign in and see your list. The browser extensions that come up in search are third-party. Add to Things 3 sends a page title and link to the Things app on a Mac, so it needs Things installed on the same machine. None of them turns Things into a web app. ## What you can do from a browser Cultured Code documents two ways to add a to-do from a computer without Things: Mail to Things and Microsoft To Do. Both land in your Inbox, and neither shows you the list. | Route | Add a to-do | See or complete the list | What it needs | | ---------------------- | --------------------------- | ------------------------ | --------------------------------------- | | Mail to Things | Yes, by email | No | Your `@things.email` address | | Microsoft To Do | Yes, into the Things Inbox | No | Setup on an iPhone, iPad, or Vision Pro | | Remote into a Mac | Yes, in the real Things app | Yes, through the Mac | A Mac that stays awake and reachable | | A browser task manager | Yes | Yes | Moving your list out of Things | [Mail to Things](https://culturedcode.com/things/support/articles/2908262/) turns an email into a to-do in your Inbox. Cultured Code caps it at 100 emails a day, truncates anything over 4,000 characters, and ignores attachments. Set it up whatever you decide. It is the one capture route that works from any computer. Cultured Code also documents [adding to-dos through Microsoft To Do](https://culturedcode.com/things/support/articles/7597548/): a to-do you add there reaches Apple Reminders, and Things offers to import it from the Inbox. It is one-way, and the import deletes the to-do from Microsoft To Do. Screen sharing into a Mac gets you the whole app. It turns a quick capture into a remote session, and it stops working when the Mac sleeps. ## When a browser is all you have A work laptop that blocks installs, a shared desktop, a borrowed computer, a Chromebook. On any of those, a native-only app leaves you with capture and nothing else. If a PC is where you'd install an app, [Things 3 for Windows](/blog/things-3-for-windows) covers that case. A browser app earns a place as your main list only if it does two things. It has to run the whole workflow: Inbox, Today, Upcoming, Anytime, Someday, projects, and labels, from the keyboard. It also has to keep working when the network drops, because you stop trusting a list that shows a spinner on a train. ## Done Bear in a browser [Done Bear's web app](/web) is the same app as the desktop build, with Inbox, Today, Upcoming, Anytime, and Someday, projects, labels, search, and the same keyboard shortcuts. It is [local-first](/local-first). Your tasks are stored in the browser and sync in the background. Sign in once with a connection and let the app load. After that, the tab reopens with no connection, and you can add, rename, complete, and search tasks offline. Your changes sync when you reconnect, and show up on your other devices. If you can install software, the [native apps](/download) for macOS, Windows, Linux, and iOS use the same account and the same list. Done Bear is [free to start](/pricing), no card, so you can run both side by side for a week before deciding anything. ## Stay on Things if the browser is the exception Stay if every device you work your list on is a Mac, iPhone, or iPad, and the browser is somewhere you only need to capture. Mail to Things covers that. The [Things 3 alternative comparison](/things-3-alternative) covers the rest of the difference. ## Moving your Things 3 list Things has no export button, and Cultured Code's [Exporting Your Data](https://culturedcode.com/things/support/articles/2982272/) points to the database file instead. Done Bear imports a copy of the Things database and never writes back to Things. [How to move a Things 3 list, and what the import keeps](/blog/things-3-for-windows) walks through it step by step. The import works in the browser too. ## Sources - [Cultured Code: Getting Things](https://culturedcode.com/things/support/articles/2803552/) for supported devices and the web browser as an unsupported platform. - [Cultured Code: Syncing with Things Cloud](https://culturedcode.com/things/support/articles/2803586/) for what Things Cloud syncs. - [Cultured Code: Logging In To Your Things Cloud Account](https://culturedcode.com/things/support/articles/2997514/) for to-dos being viewable only in the Things app. - [Cultured Code: Using Mail to Things](https://culturedcode.com/things/support/articles/2908262/) for Inbox capture by email and its limits. - [Cultured Code: Adding To-Dos via Microsoft To Do](https://culturedcode.com/things/support/articles/7597548/) for the one-way route through Microsoft To Do and Reminders. - [Cultured Code: Exporting Your Data](https://culturedcode.com/things/support/articles/2982272/) for the missing export button. --- Every Done Bear page is listed at https://donebear.com/llms.txt.
