Plan&Control combines a modern planner/task management app with a bit of gaming fun. Whenever you create a simple to-do list, more advanced project or a routine you may link it to a space base - it will grow along your project. But beware! Tasks that are overdue degrade your base. Simple reminder or a complex project? Lacking motivation? Plan&Control has got you covered. MAIN FEATURES The app provides three different types of projects that you can use to organise and plan everything from simple chores to complex enterprises: • simple projects - for quick, uncomplicated task lists like grocery shopping • advanced - if you need a multilevel project structure with additional stages and subtasks • routines to track repeated activities - daily workouts for example. Each project type may be linked to a space base development to visualise your performance. There are 3 scenarios*: • distant outpost - build an outpost in a distant galaxy • orbital base - space base somewhere in the depths of the universe (available in paid version only) • mining colony - plants and industrial facilities extracting resources from one of the planets (available in paid version only) All scenarios use unique animated graphics accompanied by sound effects. The style resembles isometric view strategy games. --- Beside the fancy gaming experience Plan&Control offers the best features of task managers and to do lists. Each task may be assigned a priority level or a colour badge to help you organise things visually and mentally. Projects have deadlines and alerts. Routine activities additionally require frequency like daily, weekly, monthly etc. or even "every working day". You can store your data locally on a single device or sync it with others through iCloud. Additionally you can now exchange tasks with the Reminders app or export them to Calendar. Even the most tedious task may be fun. Go ahead - turn your gardening project into a space base! Questions? Feedback?
