Task PRO (To-do & Projects)

Until the cloud stole my life

I've used this app for a couple years and I use it every day. It's an absolute staple in my app collection and life. I love the simplicity, it doesn't get in the way of what I want to get down. Also, I'm a seriously heavy user of sub-lists and that, along with the simplicity, is why this app won out over all others for me (I tried more than I can count). === Update: === The app has had some growing pains, but it is *still* the best one out there. I recently went through another slew of list apps and still came back to this one. Nested lists and tagging make this my go-to app for listing anything and everything. In my first review, a year or two ago, I had complained that there was no syncing. The app does sync now. It's not great, but I see this happen with a lot of apps and icloud. I wish it worked better. At this point I'm more interested in the other features of the app. It does what it does very well. === Update (11/2014): === After 3 or 4 years using this app, I can say that despite its shortcomings, this app is *still* the best out there for lists with sublists. The simplicity is perfect. Syncing, however, is a problem. I really, really hope the dev fixes this, or contracts with someone who can. I have to remove a star since the syncing has been a problem for so long and the app hasn't been updated for over a year. But I really want people to use this and support the dev so we don't lose the app. I've gone through yet ANOTHER round of list / to-do apps -- have to keep up with the times -- but this is still the one I always come back to.

Interface is very good. Occasional glitches, but these are very minor. Overall, a very good app if you need to stay organized.

The best layout of any task app in the iTunes Store! So why one star? Between iCloud issues and iPhone updates I have lost my data 3 times!!! Unacceptable! Remove this feature and allow off-device storage of the database (or allow the program to read in the data from the emails it creates, might even revive the computer link so typing in large amounts of data is easier). I truly miss this program, it was the best of all the rest. With some tweaking it could be a top all time app!

Both the iPad and iPhone apps don't sync properly, and now both apps crash upon opening.
