TaskPro: A new Todo/Project management app
Hi. I'm Chris McKay with Lakeridge Software. I've just posted a new todo/project management app called TaskIt.
The reasoning behind it is that I use tasks heavily and the todo managers on Android didn't have the options I needed/wanted. So, I wrote my own. It's inspired by the GTD method and some apps I've seen on the iPhone.
The heart of the app is that you have several views to help you get organized. There's an inbox for unfiled tasks, a Today view for tasks due today (or floating tasks), a Next view that displays everything due today, plus the top three tasks from every project, a future view to show everything scheduled in the future and a projects view to display all of your projects.
Since some projects may require multiple steps, which in turn need multiple steps, I've also added the ability to nest projects. You can even promote a task to a project if it turns out that the task is more complicated.
Eventually I plan on adding the ability to sync with a desktop client. For now, though, the tasks remain on your phone. If you need to, you can back them up into a semi-xml file on your storage card.
I wanted to make it as compatible as possible, so this is designed for Android 1.5 and later (it's been fully tested on a Motorola Cliq, a MyTouch 3G and a Nexus 1 running Froyo).
Here are a few screenshots:
If you're interested in trying it out, you just need to be able to side-load apps on your phone as it's not in the market during the beta test. You can download it from here:
