Just used it quickly, I like the idea but when adding new tasks you should inspect the last tasks finish time and add that as the new start time of the new task. I'd also provide a configurable amount for time blocks (or a picker panel of common amounts, 30mins,1 hour,2 hour etc).
Overall nice and clean, tiny download like andrewvijay mentioned and zero silly permission stuff, good work!
The app should recognize the last task finish time, I implemented the functionality. Could you confirm that it doesn't work on your phone ? If it doesn't, could you tell me the android version you use ? I would test it against. If it comes to picker, I don't like it. Although, I understand that some people prefer it, so I might add option to choose between standard way of entering time and picker. Thanks for your feedback.
I'm on the lookout for a product to plan only the current day. This is a nice first version, but I think for it to be really beneficial the UX needs to be on point - adding tasks as quick as possible (like Google Calendars quick add - "Clean Kitchen 1200-1215") and quick glance using a widget or permanent notification of next/current/prev task. Also, Reordering doesn't work for me.
Again, as I said I think this is a well executed first version, but the problem is I don't think I'll be able to keep using it without the mentioned features. I'll keep it on my phone in case it gets updated since it's small and requires almost no permissions.
Check out Any.do. It's a little too simple for me, I personally use ticktick which has geolocation on tasks and a lot of other features (including my preferred style of UI, the Things style), but any.do has a fantastic simple UI and has a "Moment" feature that pops up every morning where you get a list of your currently waiting tasks and get to determine whether or not you decide to complete them that day or not. There's also Clear which is a very simple daily task manager.
I'm personally not a fan of the simple UIs and greatly prefer the Things style (menubar on left with projects/lists/etc).
I created this layout and navigation to add tasks as quickly as possible. If I copied it from Google, then it wouldn't be my app. I really like your quick glance functionality idea. I will implement it. I will check what's wrong with reordering.
Like it. Would rather use voice to plan, however. 'Remind me at 3 to program.' Android phones have pretty good voice control for reminders and are great for scheduling.
Now, if I didn't have a good way to set this stuff with voice, I would love this app.
I love how it is under 5mb and doesn't use unneeded permissions. I love how easy it is to enter things in. And I love how the notifications work and how you can have it export to google calendar.
Just used it for a while.
Pros:
Good concept.
Love that it's only 3.7mb to download.
One hand usage thing is good. Would be useful while commuting.
Cons:
Couldn't understand or make sense about the note feature. I'm not sure where it's related or linked. To the entire day or to particular task?
Wouldn't be typing the same things everyday so need a repeat feature.
Calendar view would be great.
Yeah, it seems that I didn't make the note functionality intuitive. They supposed to be for general use, like: "I get distracted around 12". Should I explain it better and leave them for general purpose or make a description view for every task ? I will definitely add repeat functionality as well as possibility to plan entire week in advance.
I have a domain 1daymatters.com was going to build a personal daily quote/task tracker. It's close to expiring, if anyone interested in it keep an eye out for it.
I also have been working something similar: https://github.com/mitul45/ta-calendar. Let me know what you guys think.
PS: For now it's not quite responsive for smaller screen sizes.
