Incredibly well designed and thought out app

This is just a great app for planning. The time boxing is lovely (and really a rare feature, for some reason) and the interface is incredibly intuitive. The developer is clearly attentive to the community, and responded to a bug report I made incredibly quickly. Nothing but good reviews from me!

This app got me through grad school + working full time

I used this app to keep me organized when I was doing grad school and working full time and it was hands down THE BEST tool for organization. The combination of lists, labels, and calendar/time blocking was so huge for me. It’s like having a really large white board organized by lists and weekly time blocking, colored by label. Tasks are super flexible to move around from a list to your calendar, from one day to the next. I love it. And the check done feature is gratifying for me.

Love it! With some bugs

It’s the ideal concept for a time boxing app. However, I lose some of my tasks when scheduling from Brain Dump to a date. They just disappear! ✨🫣I hope Chris sees to it that this gets looked at. This is a very special application.

Works well with some bugs

Does what I need which is timeboxing and having a braindump of all my tasks. There are some bugs that I have to work around, like editing and moving recurring tasks.

High quality

Ellie is a very high quality app that pays great attention to detail.

Best Daily Planner I’ve Found!

After years of trying every new planning app and organizer I’ve finally found the perfect one for me! Super easy to use and the IOS app is perfect for jotting down quick reminders in the Braindump so I can act on them when back at my desk later. Tons of other powerful features and Chris is super responsive to questions. Highly recommend!

I never write reviews

I’ve been searching for a todo app that would match my brain in my daily workflow. This app (and the web app) are exactly what I’ve been looking for.

Does everything you need it to do

You can tell this app was made by someone who uses it. Ellie does everything you need it to do and well. So happy to have it.

Difficulty rearranging tasks

This app is amazing - exactly what I’ve been looking for. I love the simple, minimalistic design and I love the ability to colour code. It’s so easy to use.

Unfortunately I’ve been having an issue with rearranging tasks - when I try and arrange them into chronological order for my days, they unfortunately just bounce back to where they were once I’ve closed the app. I have tried a few times to raise this with the app developer but I haven’t had a response.

Simple, Great, Effective!

Doesn’t take long to get familiar with how to use this app! A great app if you’re looking to see how and where you spend your time so you can create the shifts and changes needed to have a smoother and easier days. Try it out!

Easy to use

So simple but so effective! Love this app for my adhd scatter brain

Amazing Tool, Responsive Developer

This is an amazing tool with a very responsive developer! I bought the lifetime use version and have been very grateful for it. Keep up the great work, Chris!

Amazing

Came across this app on a subreddit LOL and im so glad i did fr. Ive tried notion, gcal, xtiles, todoist, a physical planner and a bunch of other random apps — this has been the only thing that has actually stuck!! Currently in college and this app has been keeping me sane. Pretty sure this was some sort of alt to sunsama, which did catch my eye but i am too broke to afford that

Overall i absolutely love this app 🤞

LOVE LOVE LOVE!

After searching for an task management app to integrate with my calendar, track projects, and just help plan my days better. Ellie does everything I need, and it’s super easy to use.

I have also recently started integrating other apps with Ellie to streamline task creation with Zapier. Super excited to keep expanding.

I can’t wait to see what other features are coming!! A general note taking area outside of the brain dump would be super cool 👀

Great App at a Great Price!

Absolutely love using Ellie to quickly plan out my week. It handles a full college load really well and can easily plan out my days. Only problem is I wish it had an easier way to add new time slots (Such as just holding on the day time box)

Love this app!!

I have so much faith in this app and the developer! Hes very transparent with the whole app making process and extremely understanding and kind. This app is extremely similar to Sunsama just cheaper and doesn’t connect with Notion, which is ok. Im excited for the future and when hes gets that figured out. This app is a work is progress but its great.

Life Changing

I have tried a bunch of other productivity apps and analogue methods but this one is just perfect in every way!

I’ve gotten more done in the last day and have noticed my mood lift as I’m spending less time being stressed and anxious about my to dos. It’s the only productivity app that’s worked for me and has truly changed my life!

Functions perfectly. Looks aesthetically pleasing. Laid back. No frills or overwhelming UX - just everything you need to get the tasks done.

I will truly sign on to any app Chris Raroque makes. I love the humour and relaxed tone of voice, the design elements from the cute human inspirations of the designs (even the details down to the illustrated Japanese street on the start up screen and the emojis used on lists).

Thank you Chris 🙏☺️☁️
