Amie is a calendar app that helps you manage tasks and easily add emails as tasks to your calendar.
Amie doesn't try to hide what it is and isn't. It's a calendar at the core and like many of the other best daily planners on the market, they've gone and added some basic task creation functionality.
Where they've gone a step further is actually pulling in email to the mix. Depending on the type of person you are, maybe you want to turn emails into tasks and schedule them directly on your calendar in a time blocking fashion.
Amie is definitely not a full email client, although it is listed on the best email clients page, that's because it allows you to time-block on your calendar emails, and then respond to those emails from right within Amie.
That said, view it as more of a "feature" and less of a software category. When comparing Superhuman vs Amie for example, there's no match—Amie is not a full-fledged email app.
A to-do list to organize your work & life.
TickTick is a basic personal task management app, useful for jotting down quick household/personal tasks. You can easily add to-dos, notes, priorities, and deadlines. You can also categorize tasks via labels into categories. Think of TickTick as one level up from Apple Notes or Google Keep.
That said, not much TLC is going into TickTick these days. The user interface is quite dated and the calendar sync integration works every 15 minutes or so (while with more modern apps, it's instant).
