NanoDo vs Apple Reminders
Looking beyond Apple Reminders? Reminders is free and deeply tied to Siri and iCloud. NanoDo is a €4.99 iPhone app that adds what Reminders lacks: a daily three-things ritual and a lock-screen focus task, on a Live Activity, that you check off without opening the app. It is one-time, with no account and no data collection.

Where Apple Reminders is the better choice
Reminders is the better choice if you want something free, built in, and tied tightly to Siri, the Apple ecosystem and shared family lists. For simple lists it is hard to beat.
Where NanoDo fits
NanoDo fits if lists aren't the problem, focus is. It shows one thing at a time on your lock screen and asks for just three each morning, for a one-time €4.99.
