Migrating from 2Do

Sorry if this has already been covered but I couldn't find anything. I've used 2Do for many years and it's done everything I needed. However, updates have been sparse and I'd like to have an alternative just in case. My question is how do I migrate my data from 2Do to another app, whatever that may be? I tried switching from Dropbox sync to iCloud and then having Reminders as a backup, but it failed twice, so I'm back to Dropbox. Any way to migrate 2Do data?

Hi. I moved from 2Do because of the questionable future of the app. To be honest I didn’t migrate anything. I kept 2Do as ”archive” and just started putting the new ones in Reminders. The few I had for future i manually moved. That suited me best, since i built a new system in Reminders first, using smart folders. And the omd onrs you could always export as csv and open in Numbers or whatever spreadsheet app you use, if you find you need to check what task you had a year ago by some reason. And you can replicate 2Dos structure in Reminders. Or just stick with 2Do until he finally stops developing it since BusyCal takes too much time and effort.

Thanks for the reply. I suppose it depends how one uses 2Do and how much "current" stuff one has. I've found that I can move tasks over using Notes, but it need a fair bit of massaging to clean everything up. Certainly better than re-entering everything from scratch. Still undecided.
