Tasks is a flexible task manager built for Apple devices. Start with a simple to-do list, then add structure only when you need it—with projects, subtasks, tags, priorities, custom statuses, Kanban boards, collaboration, and powerful automations. Your work is rarely just “to do” or “done.” A task might be in progress, waiting, under review, or following a workflow unique to your team. Tasks lets you shape every project around the way you actually work, without overwhelming you upfront. START SIMPLE. GROW YOUR WAY. • Capture tasks quickly and organise them into folders, projects, and subtasks • Add tags, priorities, task types, notes, links, images, PDFs, and other details • Create custom statuses for any workflow • Use fixed or completion-based recurring reminders • Build Smart Lists with powerful filters across all your projects • Find tasks, comments, and project information with advanced search • Start faster with project templates and helpful tag and date suggestions SEE WORK MOVE FORWARD Turn any project into a clear visual workflow with Kanban. Move tasks between custom statuses, or let completing a task advance it naturally through your flow. From a personal checklist to a multi-stage project, you can always see what is happening and what comes next. AUTOMATE ALMOST ANYTHING With more than 50 App Intents, Tasks works deeply with Siri, Shortcuts, Spotlight, and system automations. Create, edit, clone, search, and organise tasks and projects without opening the app. Build workflows around dates, recurring rules, locations, tags, priorities, statuses, comments, and collaborators. COLLABORATE WITHOUT THE OVERHEAD Share projects by email or public link, assign work, add comments, and keep files with the tasks they belong to. Only the person sharing a project needs Tasks Plus—collaborators can join without purchasing their own subscription. MADE FOR THE APPLE ECOSYSTEM Tasks is designed for iPhone, iPad, Mac, Apple Watch, and Apple Vision Pro, with reliable CloudKit-powered sync across your devices. • Interactive Home Screen and Lock Screen widgets • A full Apple Watch app for capturing and completing tasks from your wrist • Share and Action extensions for creating tasks from other apps • Focus Filters, rich notifications, and Time Sensitive alerts • Keyboard, trackpad, drag-and-drop, and multi-window support • Native dark mode, Dynamic Type, and accessibility support • Face ID and Touch ID protection for private projects • Import from Apple Reminders and Notes • Export and import complete backups using the .tasks format • URL schemes and x-callback-url support for advanced workflows PRIVATE BY DESIGN Tasks is built with privacy in mind, with secure CloudKit-powered sync across your Apple devices.

Stop retyping the same message over and over. AppPostIt lets you save your go-to replies, comments, and captions once, organize them into categories, and insert them into any app with a single tap — right from your keyboard. No more copying and pasting from a Notes app, and no more retyping the same allergy warning, FAQ answer, or business reply for the hundredth time. HOW IT WORKS Save a post — Write out a reply you use often (a group rule, a product FAQ answer, a canned customer service response, anything) and save it under a category. Enable the AppPostIt keyboard — A quick, one-time setup in your device Settings. Insert anywhere — Switch to the AppPostIt keyboard while typing in Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, Reddit, Messages, email, or any other app, tap your saved post, and it's inserted instantly. WHY APPPOSTIT Works in every app and browser — since it's a keyboard, not a separate app you have to copy from, it works anywhere you can type. Unlimited categories — organize your saved posts however makes sense to you. Nothing leaves your device — your saved posts are stored locally, not on a server. Fast — built for people who post the same kinds of replies constantly: community managers, group admins, small business owners, customer support, and anyone tired of retyping. Get started free — save and insert your first several posts at no cost. Unlock unlimited posting with a one-time purchase whenever you're ready.
