## What is Taskboard?

Drag and drop list organization that gives you a visual overview of your tasks and projects.
 
Create as many lists as you need. Organize projects, tasks, and ideas. Drag cards from one list to another; move lists around. Simple and visual.

**** 4.6/5 stars on the App Store (see reviews for 'All Versions' if most recent update isn't showing ratings yet).

Drag and drop organization

You can create as many lists as you need. Adding items to your list can be done one-at-a-time or in bulk. Create a list for your projects, clients, to-dos, grocery list, research, homework, wedding plans, someday tasks, or ideas you want to research later.

Not out of sight, out of mind

Everything is in front of you, so you're less likely to forget something. An added advantage of this format is that your lists form an inverted bar graph - some will be short and others long. If you're using the app for project management you'll know the status of each project.

Flexible

Priorities, new info, schedule changes. They happen. Put your finger down on time-consuming add/edit/reorder organization tools. Spend less time editing and more time moving cards to suit your workflow.

Get detailed

Just type a few words to create a card in your list. If you want to add more information you can tap the card and add notes or set a due date. You can use the notes field to list subtasks if you want. You'll be able to see which cards have notes and due dates at a glance from the main screen.

Full of color

Pick a custom background. Subtle and light or bold and bright - more than 50 patterns are included.

You can also add colored labels to your cards to make them stand out or indicate priority.

In-app EXTRAS

Thousands have enjoyed this app over the years with its base set of features. If you need more, you can install:

- Colors: Add color to your cards and your boards. Color code them to make them stand out.
- Projects: Group related sets of boards into projects to avoid clutter. It's like having multiple copies of the app.

Features

* Unlimited list boards
* Tap on any card to additional notes, a due date, or a colored label

### 5/5 — Truly free and simple

*2024-10-07, version 1.1.5*

I've downloaded several to-do, task, planner type apps to get myself organized. Tried them, deleted them, but this one is a keeper that I’ve had for many years. There are no in app purchases nor any ads and is TRULY FREE.  This app is from the good old days; that being said, there have not been any updates for many years. If you’re looking for a simple To-Do List that only takes up 4 MB, Get this.  Super easy to use, add tasks, label, shift them around, assign colors, archive or delete when done.

### 5/5 — I use it everyday...

*2024-08-05, version 1.1.5*

Liked it when I got it a few years ago. It turns out the more you use it, the more reasons and ways! you find to use it. Its on my and my husbands iPads. So helpful. I have one list of boards for Groceries with a board for each store I use regularly. Another list for Entertainment with.separate boards for books, podcasts,movies and music. Another for Parts with boards for products i’ve bought that need model numbers and specific replacement parts or batteries. So many uses!,!!! Thank you for this app. Really- I use it everyday- still! 11/26/22 - Still my everyday go to app, so many ways to use it! Wish I could get it on my iPhone...sigh.g
8/3/24 Still my #1 favorite!! !

### 3/5 — No iPhone app

*2023-09-21, version 1.1.5*

I really like this app but wish there was an iPhone app to sync with.  Without iPhone sync, I can’t use it.

### 5/5 — Simple and effective

*2023-03-14, version 1.1.5*

In a world that seems more and more complex each day, I am welcoming the simplicity of this planning app. I am using it for work and personal projects. More than a pen and paper, and without the clutter and distraction of useless additional bells and whistles that I just don’t need. I have the projects add-on and each project is set up with Action, In Progress and Completed. Dragging items from one column in to another is super easy. Would love to be able to add my own images for backgrounds. Very happy 😊

### 5/5 — Nice little app

*2022-10-05, version 1.1.5*

The concept is simple but quite useful.  I use it in a non-conventional way to stretch it to my way of thinking. I was very pleased that it was ‘strong’ enough to become one of my daily task management tools.

### 5/5 — Taskboard is Brilliant

*2022-07-31, version 1.1.5*

I love this app. It’s quite simply one of the best apps out there. For my sanity alone you need to develop this for Mac and iPhone too. I will quite happily pay for this app across all platforms. Simple and easy to use.

### 5/5 — Great simple, easy to use job organiser

*2021-11-16, version 1.1.5*

Steven has done a great job with this app. I have used Trello before which is similar to this app. However Taskboard is way easier to use so I am very happy with it and will use it for many home projects to come.

### 3/5 — App crashing while trying to print

*2021-10-23, version 1.1.5*

I have been using the App for several months, but after the IOS 15 update when I try to print the App crashes.
I emailed the developer 3 days ago (as per instructions in the App) but no reply as yet 😕

### 5/5 — Great!

*2021-01-03, version 1.1.5*

I’ve have this app for 6 months now, and it has honestly helped me so much! You should get it. I promise!

### 3/5 — Hello Support

*2020-12-17, version 1.1.5*

I like the app, it is not over complicated for my projects, home & garden. However it is 5 years old and despite the developer saying support is at hand. I am still waiting for a reply.
The added features @ £4 are good value but the apparent lack of upgrades is probably not good enough for business projects. The developer has a number of other useful apps but all are 5years old.
