Kicked me out

Loved this app, except for the fact that it randomly logged me out of my app and then said my email isn’t linked to any accounts when I tried to log back in. The App Store still verifies that I have my subscription through March, so there’s not an issue there. I still payed for the app, I’m just unable to access my account and actually use it now. 👎

Hello, thank you for letting us know about the issue. Could you please email us to info@tarasov-mobile.com? We will check what is going on.

I love Chaos Control

This app has so much potential. I love the ubiquity, as I am an Apple household but have a work PC. Being able to access my tasks and projects from literally anywhere is a key feature I’ve needed. For example, I love OmniFocus, but without having to pay an additional 50/yr, I can’t access my stuff on the PC.

The only suggestion I would make is that this app really needs a notes feature. Sometimes it is helpful to be able to jot my thoughts down about a project or import a scope of work. It would even be great if I could connect the app to OneNote or OneDrive or even Obsidian, which I am integrating more and more. Just some thoughts. Keep up the great work!

Thank you so much for your feedback Melliott!

Loved this app but wait to download it

I did love this app. I use it and a paper planner to be honest because I do not always have my planner in my hand when items come up but writing things down is what works for me. I also like adding projects that are more then 6 months out since I use a 6 month paper planner and no one wants to see a load of tasks that aren’t even started at the end of the year. Unfortunately all my tasks, folders and projects are now gone out of this app that I’ve been using for years. Think it happened during an update but I’m really not sure. Some of the information which is missing is not anywhere else. My bad for that. I’ve tried signing out, restarting etc and have now emailed support. Hold off a bit before you download and start using this to make sure the problem is resolved first. I do have the paid version for what it’s worth.

Hello and sorry for the trouble. Please logout from your account and login again. Your data will be restored from the server. Please note that first sync after login can take several minutes, so don't close the app while it is happening.

Buggy with Potential

Holding out for a revamp that ms supposedly coming out. Right now buggy, creating tasks and adding them to projects crashes the whole app and keeps adding fake projects to my phone. Breaks workflows, not worth to work around

Hello, thank you for letting us know about the issue. It is related to the latest iOS 16 update. It is also easily fixed by logging out and logging in again. Please let us know if that worked for you.

Where is GTD?

No “next actions”, no sequential vs parallel projects. It looks like an acceptable task manager but I don’t see how it implements GTD.

HELP!!!!!!!!

Update:
Correct email address was provided directly. No word on if it has been corrected on the site.

My Favorite Project/Task Manager… By Far

I have used Chaos Control for the past several years and watched it get better and better with each update. There isn’t another project/task app (that I have tried) that can match what Chaos Control easily manages. The flexibility of this program to organize any project structure is truly amazing.

It really does create order out of chaos. Big thanks to the developer from a long time user for all the hard work of continually improving this program to make it truly exceptional. Huge value for the price.

Chaos Control

I find Chaos Control an excellent app for keeping track of all manner of tasks or notes. The Chaos Box for quickly noting ideas and then the Folder/Project/Task structure allows sufficient granularity to store those ideas as well as all all types of memos tasks and notes . I use Favourites a lot. I'm running Chaos Control on an old Andoid phone, on a newer iPhone as well as on a PC and they all sync perfectly.. Sending reminders to multiple calendars is easy and works well too if you want to see just what you've scheduled for that day (without seeing all the previous tasks that weren't finished earlier and that Chaos Control reminds you that you could do )

Overall Amazing App, Should have Web App Though

This app is great for organizing personal daily tasks. It really will help your productivity. I Wish they had a web-app version of this as well though, and not just desktop versions. Otherwise would I would give it 5 stars.

Response from developer

Thank you for the feedback! We actually have a legacy web-version available here: https://account.chaos-control.mobi But is outdated and limited compared to the native desktop app. We are working on a new web-version which should be available in 2022.

PLEASE DO NOT DISCONTINUE THIS APP

This is the best app I’ve found to manage the chaos associated with my responsibilities!
