## What is task add?

Temporary comment:

On Feburary 18th, 2023, I removed this app from all stores. I am tentatively restoring the app to App Store.

If you'd like to help ensure I restore and keep the app on stores, please encourage Nishant Singhal and Carlos Fernandez Sanz of CC Extractor organization, to cease claiming authorship and mislicensing of code and claiming to have implemented features, to remove commits claiming as such, to remove false claims of such from their online resumes, and to help remove the inappropriate commits from forks of their project they provoked when they added DigitalOcean's Hacktoberfest tag. There are other aspects that might need to be addressed, but I don't expect members of their organization to be forthright, so it makes it difficult to address all aspects.

I appreciate your concern, and your action.

Public correspondence via Github issue trackers is welcome. Please do not contact me via other mediums.

I've opened an issue here to start tracking the wider issues:

"task add", or simply, "task", is an unofficial mobile client to Taskserver.

In other words, "task add" is a todo app.

The interface is inspired by Taskwarrior and TaskwarriorC2.

- https://taskwarrior.org
- https://bitbucket.org/kvorobyev/taskwarriorc2

This app is a hobby project, useful to at least me. I expect the target audience may be limited to somewhere between 10 and 1000 people on the planet.

Features:

- Add, edit, list, sort, filter your tasks.
- Sync tasks with a Taskserver.
- Export tasks in a format similar to cli task's export command.

Quirks:

- To remove a due date, long-press the button.

If you want to use a Taskserver to sync your tasks, I recommend you use a self-hosted instance so that you have full access to server logs and data.

## Key features

- Add, edit, list, sort, filter tasks
- Sync tasks with Taskserver
- Export tasks
- Taskwarrior-inspired interface
- Long-press to remove due date

### 5/5 — Yeah, it actually works!

*2024-03-26*

I got my server configured and had to copy files around so this isn’t exactly an easy and user-friendly app, but hey it actually works. I’m very happy. Wish it had a better icon and wish it had support for contexts. But wow.

### 5/5 — Almost Perfect

*2023-09-01*

It works exactly as expected. My tasks are now flawlessly synced between devices through an own instance of taskwarrior server. I can edit anything about any task and configure the craziest sorting configurations. I don't care about fancy UI, automatic syncing, and cloud synchronization. This app is a gem.

What prevents Task App from being absolutely perfect to me is a lack of big button in its menu for sending a well-deserved donation to the author.

Still it's my favorite app so far.

### 5/5 — No frills client for taskd

*2021-11-28*

It’s not fancy, but it works great.  People who have successfully set up taskd with native taskwarrior should be able to figure out how to get this going.

Thanks for making this!

### 5/5 — Just what I needed

*2021-11-10*

I was looking for a nice simple native app to use with TaskWarrior instead of a web app, and this worked exactly as advertised. Simple and direct features with a sensible layout and workflow. It is now my primary to do list on mobile!

### 4/5 — Simple and effective

*2021-09-08*

I'm running this app using TaskServer on freecinc.com and it's working well for me. I looked at inthe.am and wingtask, but prefer this solution to having my Taskwarrior data on iOS. Thanks!
