Hi. I started work on this app back in April and got a little bit of feedback off here as I was still learning Android. I've learned a lot since then and in my latest iteration the highlights include adding Google Task syncing and updating to Material Design. The app is based on the idea of time blocking and focusing on doing one thing at a time while simplifying the idea of the todo list that, to me, always seems overly complicated. Please let me know what you think! You can grab it here
https://play.google.com/store/apps/d...stic.donow.app. Here are the key features:
- Timed tasks with optional alarms and notifications
- Autocomplete remembers previous tasks as well as average duration and actual time spent
- Plan ahead or make it quicker to enter in repetitive tasks/upcoming plans by saving them as routines
- Complete tasks/pause/start from widget
- Sync with Google Tasks & across devices (Use Todoist? A Do Now user generously shared a Zapier recipe to sync Todoist with Google Tasks which then syncs with Do Now. See here:
https://zapier.com/zapbook/todoist/g...asks-new-task/).
- Re-order tasks and your timers will adjust
- Auto-repeat mode - completed tasks get re-added to bottom of list (Pro feature)
- Routine scheduling - set a schedule (can be repetitive) for a routine to get loaded automatically into your planned list (Pro feature)
Helpful for those with ADD/ADHD and need help staying focused
The app is broken up into simple lists:
- Planned - stuff you want to get done today and where you start your timer. Just hit play or set up a reminder of when you want to start. Synced tasks due today will end up here.
- Unplanned - stuff you want to get done at some point (brain dump). Synced tasks not due today will end up here.
- Routines - saved lists of tasks that you can load into either of the above lists whenever you want. This can be useful for repetitive tasks (every morning) or just for planning ahead. You can start the timer from within each list and the tasks will be loading into the Planned list.
