Plan your tasks by day. This Week is similar to a calendar but every day is a list instead of an agenda. Put tasks into any day of this week or next week, or just add it to the "Later" list! HOW IT WORKS With This Week, tasks don’t use time of day. You can plan your day by rearranging tasks into an ordered list so you can do them one by one. This new approach to planning your to-dos is designed to fit real life. Other apps want to appeal to enterprises so they add lots of scheduling, calendars, and other enterprise features. This Week is designed for our personal lives where we may know what tasks we'd like to do on a given day, but not exactly when. OTHER FEATURES ● Time-reminders ● Geo-reminders ● Sub-tasks ● Photo attachments ● Drag & drop to rearrange Need a reminder for something? This Week offers both time reminders and geo reminders! Get a notification at a particular time or when leaving or arriving at a particular location. Use sub-tasks to make grocery lists or shopping lists for a particular store, without making your main list explode in length! Attach photos to your tasks. Need a paint that compliments your couch? Attach a picture of your couch to your “Buy Paint” task! PRO MEMBERSHIP (Available as an In-App Purchase) The free version of This Week was built to work extremely well for users. All the fundamentals from This Week v1.0 are free! We chose to start with "Themes" as the only Pro feature so that everyone could still enjoy the core features of the app we've worked so hard to create. As we roll out new abilities, like syncing and Siri integration, some of those features will require a Pro Membership. As two indie-developers with normal jobs and bills, we also appreciate the support!
