Finally finally finally!

I have tried every task/PM app and method I could find. Lots of them have worked well enough, but the thing I actually needed was a way to plan my day AND capture all tasks and organize with labels if needed. The closest things I found were MS ToDo (the my day feature is great, the rest is too clunky) and Amazing Marvin (mobile app was a dealbreaker). I was always adapting my latest app of choice to work better for my neuropicy AuDHD brain. Inevitably, I would find myself searching again for something that fit a little better. Then I stumbled on a Reddit thread where someone asked for recs for an app that does exactly what I was looking for. The developer commented and mentioned he had made an app for just that.I was skeptical, but I checked it out and I was immediately hooked. Ellie is gorgeous (so I like using it), minimalist (no overstimulation or overwhelm), and easy to use (no learning curve). The braindump is a perfect capture tool, and the day planning tool is so intuitive. It has every single feature I need, and none that I don’t. I’ve been using it for a few weeks, and I couldn’t be happier. Chris, if you’re reading this, for the love of god do NOT let this app die. I know you won’t, but if upkeep gets tough I will personally find someone to take over 😂. Thank you!

I tried a bunch of task management apps but this one was my favorite in both features and price and the one I’ve been using for the last 3 months. I love the time boxing/blocking feature. I like that the app integrates with my Google calendar. I like the mobile app so I can time my tasks and I can make it full screen so it can remind me of what I’m supposed to be working on. And whatever task you start timing on your desktop shows up seamlessly onto your mobile app when you open it. Plus Chris, the developer is so nice and responsive to our feedback.

Great productivity app!

This app has been super helpful in allowing me to dump all my tasks from my mind into a list that I can then visually sort into my free time! It was one of the few planner apps that synced with both Apple Calendar and Google Calendar which was paramount for me since I get invites from both sources! The app developer, Chris, has also been super responsive and helpful for the troubleshooting I had! Best experience for this app is definitely on desktop, but iOS is great for jotting down the tasks you need to do while you’re out and about.

This app got me through grad school + working full time

I used this app to keep me organized when I was doing grad school and working full time and it was hands down THE BEST tool for organization. The combination of lists, labels, and calendar/time blocking was so huge for me. It’s like having a really large white board organized by lists and weekly time blocking, colored by label. Tasks are super flexible to move around from a list to your calendar, from one day to the next. I love it. And the check done feature is gratifying for me.
