### 1/5 — A lot of hype.

*2021-04-06, version 4.5.2*

I needed a program today, so I purchased this instead of downloading a free limited program. I opened the program and it is all grayed out and II can’t see any titles. The project screen is white but it won’t accept the dates and the calendar doesn’t work.

I got on here and wrote to app support and they said that they would get back in a few days.

I feel totally ripped off.

I’ll never buy another app that doesn’t have a free trial period.

### 4/5 — good app

*2019-09-24, version 4.5.1*

straightforward and easy to use app ideal for out and about programming

would be 5* if you could stretch the task bars without having to input sprecific dates directly on the chart and included a start/finish summary next to each task

only issue is it wont export as a month summary even though selected in settings

### 4/5 — Decent, needs sub tasks and csv / ms project outputs

*2018-09-26, version 4.5.0*

Seems like the cleanest gannt chart maker out there unfortunately the only usable output for me is the image file.    

Needs sub task option

Needs Microsoft  project output or compatible  csv output

Other than that very happy with it for sketching out a project.

Needs a PC software to take its output preferably straight to ms project.

### 1/5 — Wasted six bucks.

*2017-07-29, version 4.2.0*

Wasted six bucks.

### 1/5 — Not Easy to Use

*2017-03-01, version 4.2.0*

Not impressed by this app. I'd like my money back.

### 1/5 — Cumbersome, not friendly, and Gantt charts doesn't show color

*2016-05-07, version 4.1.1*

This app is cumbersome, not friend, and Gantt charts doesn't show colors at all on my iPad Pro.

### 5/5 — Incredible app

*2016-03-27, version 4.1.0*

Not a subset of project management software but as powerful an app as we've seen in this realm. Keep it up!!!

### 1/5 — I love this app, BUT there are too many bugs

*2015-12-31, version 4.0.2*

The App is great, unfortunately moving tasks up or down the list is virtually impossible... Tasks jump to random positions and links become a mess since the re-associate at random...
It is now 2am in the morning and I cant get my project planning done... EXTREMELY FRUSTRATING !!!!!

### 1/5 — ???

*2015-12-14, version 4.0.1*

No help File when I click on Help, and not easy to navigate.

### 1/5 — Extremely Buggy

*2015-10-13, version 2.6.0*

This app is extremely buggy. It constantly crashes or locks up. After you have added numerous tasks you can no longer move them around with the user interface going buggy and tasks get moved all over the place making your project a total mess. There is no Undo or Redo button if you do make a mistake. It's a mess.

Money back please??
