Lovely to use
This is a good app that takes the wonderfully simple and adaptive Taskpaper format and design and makes it work smoothly and effectively. I’ve enjoyed discovering that it actually does all the things that a Taskpaper app should do. Thank you

TaskPaper on iOS, done well
The iOS companion for TaskPaper I’ve been waiting for. It’s clean, fast, flexible, and makes even fairly complex outlines easy to use on a phone screen. The developer is unusually responsive too. I suggested a small typography option, and it showed up in the very next release. Really thoughtful software. Recommended.

Solid, thoughtful, lots of potential
It is great to have a new TaskPaper client for iOS! This one seems (at least since v1.2 when I started using it) to be solid with excellent fundamentals and a ton of potential.
Little things that I already love:
Customizable “tool belt” (extra row of buttons above the keyboard which you can order as you please). Some tool belt buttons allow long-tap to reveal more options, which is very smooth and well-implemented.
So many ways to navigate a document: tool belt buttons to focus in/out and to “Go to…” any project/tag/search; gestures to focus in/out or trigger the “Go to…” window; and a tappable breadcrumb trail that appears when focused in.
Everything that should be tappable and draggable seems to be tappable and draggable. The search feature offers advanced syntax, and searches can be saved. The Command bar offers many functions and can be searched. There are good styling options, including for due status, progress, and priority.
Give it a try! (And search the Command bar for support options if needed!)

A good TaskPaper app for iOS
I used to keep most of my lists in Apple Notes and Reminders. That was fine for a while, but once I started using more AI and agent-based workflows, I needed my tasks to live in plain text again. It is just easier to move things around, edit them anywhere, and not depend on one app’s database. PaperTrail does the job well. It understands the TaskPaper format, stays out of the way, and is fast enough that I actually use it every day.
The app also is maintained. I reported a bug and got a quick response, which matters a lot for this kind of tool.
Simple, useful, fairly priced for me.

Has potential
Potentially great app that's currently near unusable due to minor bugs.
Main one I'm experiencing is having to enter every task twice, because when I hit "enter" the app adds a double letter to first word of line. Eg "Read" becomes "Rread" unless I either backspace to it or shake/undo, then I'm left with the first letter and when I finish it the second time and hit enter, it works.
Have to do this for every line. Weird and funny bug, but unless you are zen enough to accept ~every line prominently featuring an apparent typo, it makes entry too inefficient for use.
Look forward to trying if/when functional! But wait till then to pay the very high price, unless you want to support creator out of generosity; it's currently worth $0.
