About

Life's a Gantt

Features
Read full description

Life's a Gantt is a real tool that solves real problems. It's a timeline-based task scheduler that handles location-aware task planning with actual drive-time calculations, flexible time constraints (not just deadlines), and local-only data storage. Set a location for each task and get actual drive-time estimates. Plot tasks on a timeline so you can see overlaps before they happen. Define flexible time constraints - start tasks at a specific time, finish before a deadline, or complete them between two times. Not everything fits a simple due date. Features - Timeline view with drive-time estimates between tasks - Flexible time constraints (start at, finish by, finish after, etc.) - Repeating tasks that don't schedule until they're needed - Conflict warnings when tasks overlap - Pin important tasks to keep them visible - Search your tasks - Task completion metrics - Local storage - all data stays on your device ABOUT * Data is stored on your device locally, and uninstalling will delete all your data. * Terms of Service ( https://cycosoft.com/lag/terms ) * Privacy Policy ( https://cycosoft.com/lag/privacy )
