Parker Planner Classic is the legacy version of Parker Planner created in 2012 and is no longer supported. We want to still make this app available for a while for those who purchased it. Soon, however we'll be removing it from the AppStore as all our efforts will be spent on Parker Planner, a free to try and subscription-based productivity app. Welcome to the Parker Planner Classic, thank you for downloading this app. Super fast two-tap entry. Quick and easy to-do list. Notes that pin on the day you make them. Parker Planners began in 2006 as a paper planner company. Our products started out as pocket-sized and that’s why it converted to iPhone so well! This version of the app is no longer actively supported. Please see Parker Planner in the AppStore and bask in the glory of sync across devices, Reminder Sync, and multiple device support! Link to new app - http://apple.co/2mugEfe
