Nice little helper

Very useful for frequent tasks.

Archive tasks?

Good app. Wish you could archive tasks (which would put them in an “inactive” section), without fully deleting them or their details.

No 45 Day Option

I have to change the AC filter on my HVAC system every 45 days but the app does not have a preset option for 45 days

No Longer Supported?

Has not been updated in four years. Don’t think it is being developed anymore.
Billy CalBilly Cal

Had potential but…

Could be a great app, suitable for many different business if it was more customisable.

I emailed the developer regarding this but as of yet no response .

This came close to what I was looking for in an app but due to no response and the time past since the last update I’m guessing the developer isn’t bothered with it.

I’m looking into developing something similar using AI assistance like Adalo .
