  • Not good

    Keeps crashing... every time I try to update a task it crashes. Not recommended.
  • Works and Looks great

    I have been able to use this app now for a few weeks and it works great. I was able to import data in very easily. Clearly the best app out there right now for PM's. Well designed UI. Looking forward to future releases.
  • Going down hill

    The developer tried to improve the app and end up making it very unstable. Great ideas but poor delivery. I decide to temporarily stop using this app because it's wasting my time fixing app errors. Crash is a bad thing and this app does it a lot.
  • Works great

    This app is really great, has the best gantt chart in all apps in AppStore.
    Reasonable price and features like dependences between tasks, milestones, control of task progress, import and export, all this things makes this app the best choice in project management category.
  • Good, but still unfinished (V2 to V2.2.1)

    I downloaded this app the over a month ago, to assist me in my job

    Overall it's ok and has helped me manage and review on the move.

    UI:
    The latest version is more stable, but a rethink of the UI is badly needed to allow more natural gestures and pan/zoom we all now expect from Iphone apps. "Entering a number to reorder the list should be replaced with a list you can reorder with hold and move up/down - not great design!"
    To the developer please have a look at how the native apps work and base the design on those

    Timeline/gantt chart:
    - Pan and zoom needed
    - Jpg / image export
    - Colour coding
    - multiple project view good but crashes when you change view to landscape

    PDF output:
    Good feature but please add options for user to select...
    - Font and size used
    - Which elements to export (eg chart only)
    - Change the task summaries to output in a large table to save the amount of pages in the PDF

    I continue to use it daily using some work arounds I know.
    Great concept, good features, currently bad UI. Please keep working on it.

  • works great for me

    now that the project import and dependency issues are fixed, it's a nifty little app: create projects on the pc, import and track them on the mobile device. neat
    i'd like to be able to zoom, though, that would make it a 5 star app
  • Type..Crash...Type

    Good idea but crashes a ton. Still needs a good bit of work.
  • Looked promising but...

    Crashes trying to add a dependency. Disappointing. Would also prefer a calendar to choose start/stop dates and not the dial-a-date.
  • Frequent crashers

    It surprises me that only one other review mentions the frequency of crashes. It seems to happen most often when making changes to information already input. I have noticed it a lot when you select the "back" button. Also, sometimes the screen seems to freeze up when you are trying to scroll by dragging your finger. After making a few swipes to try and make the screen scroll it will crash. When it crashes you loose most of any changes that you have made and you have to start over. I found a crude work around after inputting a significant amount of data, just escape out of the application instead of hitting the "back" button and reopen the application. When you reopen the application your data is normally there.

    Another problem I found is that if you change the start date of your project or a start date of any task the following tasks are not automatically updated. This means you have to go in and manually update all following start and end dates. I hope I am just missing something here. If so, I hope someone will mention what you have to do to have all the tasks automatically update when a change is made.

    Perhaps a written user manual would help any misuse by users.

    In spite of all that being said this application is exactly what I need. My needs are simple. If the developer can just get the bugs out of the application I would give it five stars.

  • Very good app!

    Update: New calendars are great. This feature is really helpful when you are defining your projects. Nice job dev!

    I'm really surprised at this update.
    It looks that the developer works hard on this project.
    This new version includes great things like import from gantt project, which is very usefull.
    But the most important change is the fact that the user can make dependencies between tasks. I saw many App Store apps but I must say that this option is unique and improves Project Planner!
    To sum up - it's definitely worth to buy this app.
