Really appreciate the feedback:

> The default message "nothing to do" shouldn't be automatically added to the tasks every time.

This is only shown if there are no unsnoozed not-done tasks, would you prefer if it was left blank in this scenario? We wanted to provide a hint to user's about what they can do in this scenario.

> It would be great if, after snoozing, we could see the top "n" tasks in the main app itself.

There is an option to see all tasks in the menu, the decision to only show one task at a time was deliberate as the hope is to encourage the user either to focus on this task or snooze it. May I ask why it would be useful to see the top "n" tasks on the main UI?

> Please add a feature to select multiple tasks at once

Should be able to do this, is there something in particular you want to do to multiple tasks at once - like snoozing or marking them "done"?

> Instead of a subscription, it would be better to have a one-time payment for the premium pricing.

This is helpful. Our idea was that people would pay for cloud backup and synchronization - since the cost to operate the servers is ongoing I think this would need to be a recurring charge or we could end up spending more than we're making.

But if we identified other premium features that didn't require a cloud service then we could have a premium version with a one-time purchase. Are there any features in particular that you'd be willing to pay for?

Many thanks!

Thank you for reviewing my inputs. 1. A simple placeholder will suffice; there is no need for additional text. 2. Don't want to press Cmd+T to see the tasks:) 3. Delete in bulk, specifically. 4. You could integrate Google Drive or OneDrive syncing instead of handling the syncing through your servers for a single fee.
Thank you, I've added the multiple task selection to our issue tracker. We could add a feature that will load/store the task list to a specified directory like Dropbox or Google Drive, I'll give this some more thought.
