About

Capta

Features
Read full description

Capta helps you capture everything on your mind and turn it into concrete action, following the GTD (Getting Things Done) method. CAPTURE IN SECONDS Type or dictate: every idea, request or reminder lands straight in your Inbox. You can also pull in items from iOS Reminders, or add them from the home-screen widget. PROCESS YOUR INBOX Turn each item into a next action, a project, something you're waiting for, or a someday/maybe. Add contexts (@computer, @phone, @errands), areas, energy level, estimated time and a due date. PROJECTS, CONTEXTS, AREAS, LISTS See your next actions by context, by area or by project. Projects without a next action are flagged, so nothing gets stuck. Waiting-for and someday lists keep the rest out of your way. SHARE PROJECTS Invite someone to a project by email and assign actions to them. PLAN WITH YOUR CALENDAR Give an action a date and time, and Capta creates the event in your iPhone Calendar, so your commitments stay in one place. WORKS WITH PLANIKO If you also use Planiko for your day, scheduled actions stay linked: complete the event in Planiko and Capta updates by itself. WIDGETS AND IPAD Your next three actions and quick capture on the home screen, and a layout made for iPad too. Your data syncs through a personal account, with no ads and no third-party tracking.
