Chaos Control is a personal organizer that will help you manage your goals, to-do lists and tasks in both your business and personal life. People don't usually achieve impressive results simply by being good at task management. It's the ability to set legitimate goals that makes the difference. Just write down your desired outcomes to make them real. This simple technique helps you to prioritize your goals before acting on them. Chaos Control is a task manager based on the best ideas of GTD (Getting Things Done) methodology created by David Allen. Whether you are running a business, launching an app, working on a project or simply planning your holiday trip, Chaos Control is a perfect tool to manage your goals, juggle your priorities, and organize your tasks to get things done. And the best part is, you can handle both heavyweight project planning and simple daily routine like shopping list management in one flexible app. Also, Chaos Control is available across all major mobile and desktop platforms with seamless sync. HERE IS HOW IT WORKS: 1) MANAGE YOUR PROJECTS Project is a goal combined with a set of tasks you need to complete in order to achieve it. Create as many projects as you like to write down all the desired outcomes you have 2) ORGANIZE YOUR GOALS Create unlimited number of projects and group them by category using Folders 3) USE GTD CONTEXTS Organize tasks from different projects using flexible context lists. If you are familiar with GTD you would just love this feature 4) PLAN YOUR DAY Set due dates for tasks and make plans for any particular day 5) USE CHAOS BOX Put all the incoming tasks, notes and ideas into Chaos Box in order to process them later.
