The look and feel of our app has changed a lot since we started. So we thought we needed a new app icon to reflect that. Originally, we had wanted to avoid the “check mark”. Search for “to-do list” apps and they are all check marks! Half of them are Read more…
This update is the second part of our new Onboarding experience for first-time users. Users now get a little spotlight walkthrough showing them key parts of the app after their first sign-in. We personally really like this type of tutorial and hope our new users do, too!
This release tries to improve the Onboarding experience for first-time users of the app. We know Simply Goals & Tasks is a little different. And that’s a good thing! But it can also make it seem strange and scary to new users. Having a great first-launch experience is a really Read more…
In this update, we’ve added a few features to the Task Detail screen — which is what you see after taping an existing task. We know that very often time estimates need to be updated. As well as notes need to be added. So we’ve added the ability to do Read more…

We are so grateful to our early beta users, who signed up, waited for an invite, and tested out our app in the closed Beta program. We wouldn’t be here without you. You are (both figuratively, and often literally) like family. You have been so helpful that we want more Read more…
We’ve added the new Horizontal Slider widget to task duration as well. This should make it just a little faster to add new tasks. There is a “more options” button for when you need a specific duration that is not an option in the slider.
We want to make it as fast and easy as possible to add a new task. This update makes a small improvement on that goal. We’ve added a new “Horizontal Scroller” to set the Status of a task (ie Priority, Action, Waiting, or Done). Previously a dialog was opened, you Read more…
