Prosper - Daily Planner, To-do ٤+

I love this thing :(

prosper just has a great layout, it’s perfectly manageable and it’s the only planner i’ve been able to keep. i like how tasks are more individualized so you can edit tasks more than you edit your day or week if that makes sense. it works things out to where it’s something you achieve. the new statistics update just makes it better cuz now it’s just a game to me and i actually wanna get stuff done. my only problem with it is that the interface isn’t customizable and that you can reorder tasks in your inbox or group them by color. also, which might be a problem on my end but widgets aren’t yet available but those would be extremely convenient. However it’s still a great app and none of the problems have made me want to not use it.

Really 3.5 stars - has potential

I did the free trial of prime for this and it was decent, and I think could be great - there are a couple of problems & features I’d like to see to get it to great. (Without the prime, though, it’s really not useful at all.) And customer service needs work, too.

As another review mentioned, it deletes *all* recurring tasks if you try to delete it for one day. That is a big problem that the developer needs to fix.

Another feature that I’d love to see is some sort of lists for the Inbox so that I can categorize tasks that haven’t been assigned yet, especially ones that can be color coded. Having to change the color of each task is fiddly and time consuming. But having tasks color coded makes this much more visually appealing. If I could have a “work” list where all tasks were automatically one color and a “school” one with another color, it would be much easier.

I had a little trouble with the calendar import at first, where a Google calendar that imports into my iPhone calendar wasn’t showing up. And now one recurring event is showing up twice, which is annoying. I contacted the developer through the only way I could find about the first one and got no response. I finally fixed the first problem by unlinking and relinking that calendar. I haven’t tried that with the second as I’m not on prime anymore. I’m still debating if I will do it, probably depends on if the developer is actually responsive.

Thank you for the review. I am trying my best to answer to everyone. Currently one man team.

I will add the feature to delete only today's repeating that soon. Also ability to delete calendar imported tasks.

Inbox will be upgraded with lists very soon. I already have that on my todo list. Its a great idea about color coding categories. I will write that down.

Great app with a lot of potentials!

I have found Prosper effective for my needs and usage! Love the minimal, non-distracting design, the ability to add the emojis, and everything seems to work well overall. Some ideas for future improvement (so that it can compete with other similar planner apps) are:

1/ Adding Calendars is a little confusing if you have more than one calendar account, i.e. I have 4 calendar accounts and cannot identify which calendar belongs to which account (currently having 3 birthdays calendars and don't know which one is which). Would love to see a similar UX/UI to the iOS's Calendar settings.

2/ On the main page, when tapping the calendar icon, I would love to see a "dot" to identify days that already have scheduled plans, similar UI to the iOS's calendar app.

3/ Integrating AI planner, or virtual assistant (Alexa, Google Home, etc.) to schedule or add a task since I personally find manually adding tasks quite daunting.

4/ Minor nit-picking, but I think some motivational, friendly content would be nice. For examples, "No tasks scheduled for the selected date" could be "No tasks scheduled for the selected date. Would you like to add a task?". Or when there are free time between tasks, instead of "X free time. Schedule a task", it could be soften up to "X free time. Would you like to schedule a task?" or similar.

In the end, this is a great start and I can't wait to see more!
