Create Account

Was excited to check this out but unfortunately can’t get past account creation

Can’t get past “create account”

I would absolutely love to give this app a shot, however I can’t even successfully get past creating an account! I’ve tried creating an account using email as well as linking a google account, both just sit at the create account view and nothing happens! I guess I’ll just delete the app and search for a different one.

Something went wrong

Yes, Something Went Wrong appears when you try to log in or when you try to register new account. Very disappointing.

Put off from the start

Seems like it may have the potential to meet my needs. Problem is that you pretty much have to purchase it to see what it can do. The free version is only good for nagging you to purchase to explore it.

Costing is a problem

Potentially useful app, but I can’t see how to add/assign costs to individual tasks, so not that useful for my situation.

Too buggy to even try

I want to like it. It has every feature I want. But it's horribly buggy, the project is corrupted so bad I can't even delete stuff to fix it, I can't copy the project to attempt to work around the bugs, and I'm definitely not going to pay to unlock the features if the demo doesn't function. Tried to find dev contact and got nothing but useless FAQs and tutorials, but no way to contact a human.

So hard to use

I can’t indent a task because the button that switches to Gaant Chart view blocks the button that allows me to indent the task.

To set a task to start on Saturday I first had to create a schedule with availability on Saturday. To do that I had to tap on Saturday about 100 times before the edit time frame window opened up for that day.

I’ve been screwing with this app for an hour, trying to create a simple, 7-task project and I am DONE.

It asks you to upgrade just to delete a fricken project! Well I know another way to delete a project: DELETE THE APP!

I click on Delete Data, and get an error message. A minute later I received an email with a link to my data (presumably the data I just attempted to delete).

They ask for your email to create an account, but I noticed they never sent a confirmation email. That means somebody else can create an account with your address (I’ve had people do that with other services).

Yeah, this one needs some work.

Do not waste your money.

I bought this so that I could use in my iPad mini for small projects. I use Microsoft Project and was extremely excited to have an application that I could use in conjunction with Microsoft Project. When I tried to input the information into Planning Pro the app would tell me nothing was available. I was unable to import files from my files on my mail application. I should have listened to the reviews and not wasted my money. The only positive about this application is that if you are going to use this as your sole projects management tool then maybe it would be worth it. Do not expect to share your work with others.

Good concept, buggy

This app does what I want it to do, but the screens and icons are buggy, the keyboard won’t close, and it’s really frustrating. I’m uninstalling.

No longer functional?

I’ve tried to open my latest project schedule in the app all week, after emailing it to myself. I don’t have the Project Pro option when I click on the mpp file in my inbox, so I can’t even bring up my plan. Same applies for Google Drive (and why isn’t MS OneDrive and option?). The chat function also covers many text and click features in the bottom right corner. I’ve thus been unable to use the app I paid a good price for. I see there was a new release within the last month, maybe bugs???

Response from developer

Unfortunately, the app does not support opening MPP files from inbox. You can only open XML files that way. We will surely consider your feature request to include MS One Drive in our subsequent releases. The chat function is draggable on your screen, so you can place it wherever you wish to, but by default it is available at the bottom right corner.

Financial reporting functionality missing

Financial reporting functionality missing. App downloaded to include the item by item review of project costs. This was missing

Pretty good for what it is

For an iPad program, it does what it needs to do. This is best used to view already-built project plans imported from MS project. It is NOT useful for building plans from scratch - very buggy and way too many extra clicks to do things like insert tasks before other tasks, indenting, etc. Deleting lines also is a problem - I have not yet had a project that hasn’t become corrupted when I delete a line.

Take money for nothing

Don’t buy that apps!!! It’s not worth.
And if you need any help, you will spend time for nothing. It is stealing

Great as a Back-up App!

This is great if you don’t have access to MS-Project. I’m definitely keeping it.

Can’t sign up

Tried to sign up for this and it keeps giving an error message and then crashes. Pointless.

Now need an account? Nope

I've had this app for quite a while. Use it occasionally. Went to open it up and now it requires I set up an account. Sorry, but no. I paid for this app. If I want to leave things local, I should have the right. APP DELETED.

Life is Good

After years of wrestling Microsoft Excel and Project, I am delighted to find this app! Easy. Intuitive. Works well with on my iPad.
Thanks!
Now back to work... I have projects to finish!

Perfect

After a ton of research, I found this app. I am managing 10 properties with repair schedules. Sage 300 would have bankrupted me. This is awesome.

Issue iPhone X layout.

You can’t hit the edit or save buttons at the top in the iPhone X layout. They are inactive but viewable under the time and status bars at the top.

Great app

This project planning is awesome! Downloaded this last month and have been using it every day since!
