Manage is a personal project management app that helps you organize your work into simple, focused projects. Instead of spreading your work across separate apps, Manage brings everything related to a project into one place — tasks, dates, documents, files, notes, and more. Every project gives you the tools you need to plan your work, track progress, store important information, and stay on top of what needs to be done. With version 2.0, Manage has been redesigned with a cleaner interface, faster access to common actions, support for project collaboration using iCloud Sharing, improved notifications, and Apple Intelligence features including Smart Today Summary and Magic Input for tasks and events. Our promise Manage is a one-time purchase. No subscriptions. We never track you or sell your data. We only collect anonymous crash and error logs to help us identify issues, fix bugs, and improve the app. Key concepts Projects Manage is built around projects. Each project acts as a simple workspace for everything related to a piece of work. Task Lists Create task lists to organize your work into different phases. Add tasks to plan, track, and complete your day-to-day work. Docs & Files Keep documents, files, and notes related to a project in one place, so everything stays organized and easy to find. Events Use the built-in calendar to keep track of important dates, deadlines, reminders, and project events. Collaboration Share projects with others using iCloud Sharing and work together while keeping your data in your own iCloud account. Apple Intelligence Use Smart Today Summary to quickly understand what needs your attention, and Magic Input to create tasks and events faster. Manage is designed to stay simple, private, and focused — giving you the right tools to get things done without unnecessary complexity. CONTACT: Email us -> manage@techulus.com Twitter -> @techulus
