## What is FernTask?

FernTask is built to provide dead simple daily task tracking for teams that aren't tied to their desks. We built it for you. You can get your team up and running in just a few minutes.

* FernTask is simple: Our primary design focus is to make the most common tasks as quick as possible. Tap complete and move on to what's important. Use task templates to speed up the creation of similar tasks.
* FernTask keeps the focus on today: Our design keeps today's tasks front and center with the "My Day" page.
* FernTask is flexible: anyone on your team is able to create, modify and delegate tasks. This allows tasks to be managed by the team lead or driven by collaboration. Activity logs provide transparency by showing what was changed by which teammates and when the modifications occurred.
* FernTask keeps you connected: Comment on a task to keep teammates informed. Tap a task's address for turn-by-turn directions. Tap your teammate's name to call or text. Customize what kind of task and team events will trigger notifications.

FernTask is completely free to use for small teams of up to three people. For larger teams we provide subscriptions which include a two free week trial for new subscribers. Subscription plans are organized by team size so that one teammate's subscription can cover the entire team.
