Hello, think you should check out Todoist? There is a web-, Windows-, and Macapp, too. So you can use it from any device, and it is very user-friendly. In my opinion, the learning curve is not too steep, and the price for the annual subscription is reasonable.
 
Todoist is my usual go-to if you want something web-based. MyLifeOrganized if you want something desktop app-based with all the bells and whistles like OmniFocus (they have a mobile app for both iOS/iPadOS and Android)
 
Thank You all for your suggestions, I heard a lot about Todoist. Actually I looking for an app that will integrate with my note taking app or I just can manage my tasks from the app only, do you have any suggestions for this?

One thing I can say right away: with many options you would be compromising on some aspect of GTD. For example, there is an Apple-only app called Agenda which tries to do it all. I find it convoluted, unintuitive, and not GTD-friendly at all, but it has a following. Probably the most flexible option is Obsidian, which has a sizable learning curve. Assembly is mandatory- you would most likely be building a system to suit your needs. Some similar apps have some of the same features. There are some apps around which are not widely used which offer an off-the-shelf solution. These may be platform-specific, subject to strong developer preferences, and may not be in active development. Personally I find it sufficient to take notes in my GTD list app, augmented by a compatible note app. In my case this is Things 3 and Bear, which are Apple-only.

It is a good app but not for me. I don't like its reliability on plugins for every task, and I like handwriting more than typing. I have researched Obsidian and I saw that it also supports handwriting but with the help of different plugins, which I have found that is not as good as the other note taking apps, which I can understand why, because Obsidian is not meant for handwriting. So that is my opinion

For those of us with abysmal handwriting this is a feature not a bug or drawback.

Yes, you are this is a feature not a drawback, and this perfect for people who prefer typing over handwriting, but as I mentioned before I prefer handwriting over typing. So can we integrate GTD methodology with handwritten note taking like goodnotes and notability?
