Managing tasks just got a lot easier with Karo, a new iOS app designed for delegating and tracking tasks to your friends, family, or colleagues—even if they don’t have the app installed! Created by Indian developer Mustafa Yusuf, Karo solves the common problem of having to chase people down for tasks. Unlike other task management apps, Karo is all about simplicity and flexibility, allowing you to assign tasks through messaging apps like WhatsApp or iMessage.

Karo, which means “do it” in Hindi, stands out by allowing users to send tasks to anyone in their contacts. Unlike typical to-do lists that require everyone to be on the same platform, Karo reaches people where they are—whether that’s through WhatsApp, iMessage, or even SMS. If the recipient doesn’t have the app, Karo automatically sends a message through their preferred platform with a link to the task. They can complete the task without ever needing to download Karo, making it perfect for friends, family, or small business teams.

The app’s interface mimics a chat window, making task creation feel as easy as sending a message. You can assign tasks using natural language, such as “Meeting at 2 pm tomorrow,” and Karo will set the reminder for you. Tasks can also be attached with files, images, videos, or voice notes for added convenience. Plus, Karo’s AI can break down larger tasks into manageable steps or even help you plan events like trips by listing all necessary to-dos.

Karo’s automatic reminders are a game-changer. The app sends notifications when tasks are due, and if they’re left incomplete, it follows up on your behalf. No more nagging—Karo takes care of that for you, whether the task is for your plumber, a colleague, or a family member. For time-sensitive tasks, Karo sends reminders as deadlines approach and will continue nudging until the job is done.

While larger teams might rely on sophisticated project management tools, Karo is ideal for smaller groups or personal networks. From coordinating family chores to managing study groups or even business operations, Karo makes it simple to assign and track tasks. One Mumbai-based dry fruit distributor uses Karo to manage packaging and delivery, with employees checking off tasks via WhatsApp.

Karo is free to use, but users can upgrade to unlock features like group management, custom themes, and attachments. Subscription options range from $4.99 per month to $99.99 for lifetime access. And for Android users, Yusuf promises that a version is on the way, but the app’s biggest strength remains its ability to work seamlessly across platforms.
