Make Widgets!!

I really like this app and being able to put my to do list, goals, habits, and all in one place but I wish it had widgets that you could put on your Home Screen/page.

My best Planner App

Clean, and contain all you need to be productive everyday. extremely useful ❤️❤️❤️

Really great goal and habit tracker, to do list, and day planner

I’ve used basically all of the trackers/planners that are highly rated on the App Store but all of them were limited to one or two kinds of functionality. This app combines all of them into one.
It has a habit tracker, a goal tracker, a daily planner, a to do list section that integrate wonderfully together. You can add events, you can customize the color palette and theme, and super easy interface with the perfect amount of detail.
Really really great app, I don’t ever write reviews but this has been exactly what I’m looking for. I’ve been able to delete 3 other apps in place of this one.

Thank you for the 5-star rating and review! It motivates us to enhance our app.

Superb Quality

Excellent organization in this app. Ease of use is very good, and they continue to work to improve the app. The most thorough and well-designed calendar/ planner I have yet to see in the public sphere.

Response from developer

Thanks for your feedback! We're happy you find the app well-designed and user-friendly. We'll keep striving to make it even better!

The best planner I have used!

The application not only allows you to plan your tasks every day, but also provides the ability to set goals, work on habits, as well as a convenient functionality for recording your thoughts. Deleted other planners on the phone.
Looking forward to the Mac Desktop version)

FANTASTIC combined planner calendar and habits!

This app is great! It combines all the features I was looking for in an all-in-one planner, plus a good division between paid and free features and a super functional design. I wonder if in future updates the scheduling ability will be revamped to include an easier time selection (like, start and end times rather than a wheel) and the ability to see on which days an event or task is scheduled without clicking directly on the day. I feel like my events are hiding from me haha

Response from developer

Thank you for the review. We display only events and tasks for the selected day to focus on the right things at the right time. We can't change the past and can't change the future. We can only plan for the future and work today. This is more correct and productive than viewing everything at once. Having a cluttered mix of plans and habits with work tasks can't be a productive approach. We have spent more than 200 hours testing productivity in different scenarios. So, splitting is a true and correct way to gain focus and become more productive.

Lost all the data

After updating the application to newer version I lost all the data from the previous one - no plans, no dreams, no wishes, etc.
Would really appreciate if you could help me with this, perhaps there’s an option to restore the data.

Памʼятаю ще попередній дизайн і назву. Час від часу заходжу та чекаю коли хороша ідея буде добре реалізована, щоб придбати додаток. Нажаль, знову не вийшло. При заповненні звичок почався якийсь хаос, вони кудись зникають, на anytime не реагує, не подобається що є розділення на morning evening і тд, і що це не можна прибрати. Здається треба ще спрощувати , будь лаааааска 🌸🩵

Few cons but they’re big ones.

I’ve been looking for an app like this for literal years. It has a beautiful interface with a clean and modern feel but it’s also customizable. It has the three things I wanted: calendar, tasks, and notes (plus a lot more without seeming overwhelming). It seemed perfect. Perfect enough that I bought premium so I could integrate my calendar and play with the features because there was no free trial (which would have been nice).

However, there is no actual sync feature with iCal. You can import calendar events but it will not sync new ones, you have to put everything in this app going forward. There is no option at all to import reminders. Adding events is annoying - it would be way more convenient to have a start and end time instead of choosing an amount of time (or at least having both options). I really needed full integration with my calendar AND reminders because they are synced with other apps that I use including widgets that I need on my home screen (which this app also doesn’t have). The default iCal options are extremely useful for my ADHD brain (travel times, widgets, integration with other apps) but it’s so ugly and it’s not effective for me to not have my events and reminders in the same place.

I wanted to love this app (I thought I did) but because of the lack of a few features that even the crappiest apps seem to have I will probably never use it.

Response from developer

Please update your Planner to the latest version, which now includes full sync with Google Calendars

Useful. should allow more customization

I’m using this pro version for 2 months now. It works well and does all what it promises without any bugs.

however There are some rigid design choices. e.g. you can mark a task as completed when the day on which the task was scheduled has passed.

i’ll still recommend this app but it needs to go far to become perfect planner in many ways

Bester Planer im App Store

Ich war seit langem auf der Suche nach einem Planer zum Organisieren von meinem Alltag.
Auf dieser Suche sind mir viele Apps untergekommen, aber Octopus ist bei weitem die beste: Übersichtlich organisiert, mit allen Funktionen, die es braucht.
Es ist mit der bezahlten Version sogar möglich, zusammen mit anderen Nutzern an Projekten zu arbeiten — eine Funktion, die mir besonders gut gefällt.
Diese Pro Version, die es bei den meisten Apps nur als Abofalle gibt, ist als einmaliger Kauf zu einem angemessenen Preis erhältlich.
Alles in Allem muss ich sagen: Mir ist selten eine so gelungene App untergekommen! Sehr zu empfehlen.

I’ve never seen a service worse than this

I used this planner for a long time. For some reason, the dev just deleted my account (which I paid for) and deleted all my important data (especially notes, I used it for my job). As a result, I can’t finish my project now. I was begging the dev to recover my data, but they just ignore me. I’m starting the litigation, because it’s just fraud
