After entering your task’s description all you have to do is tap one button to set when the task is to be performed. View your current set of tasks only, or all your tasks - you decide. View current tasks only: It can be distracting to see tasks that aren’t due yet. DelayTask only shows you the tasks whose date or time has been reached, hiding others from view. For example, if you press “Tomorrow” the task will disappear from your “Current” list, only appearing again the following morning. If you want to view future tasks you can do so by tapping the “All” button. Use natural terms for dates: Rather than enter dates using a calendar you use natural terms such as “Today”, “Tomorrow”, “Next Week”, requiring less thinking on your part. Avoid assigning all your tasks to the same day: When a period of several days is selected such as “This month” or “Next week” DelayTask will look at the dates in that range and assign the task to the least busy date in the period selected. Swipe and tap to delete tasks: No tapping to mark a task done and having it continue to stick around. Just swipe and tap to delete forever. Uses the full screen on the iPhone 5. Add repeated tasks: Instead of removing your task entirely it is instead moved the number of days you request.

Record time, master time, and live a self-disciplined life Our App can only do the first of the above three points. We hope that you can get the other two points by yourself after using our App~ [This is a simple time recording assistant] - You can continue to time even if you turn off the background - All you need to do is to remember to open the timer and click "end timer" when you complete a task [This is a simple time statistics assistant] - "Work", "Study", "Sleep"... You can label the time you record - Pie charts and timelines can intuitively see the time usage of a day (Eating, sleeping, playing games, which one takes more time?) [Normal mode and focus mode] - In "focus mode", if you exit the App, the timer will be interrupted. I hope this small auxiliary function can help everyone concentrate more~ This is really just a small tool, but I still hope that this App can play a little role in improving everyone's self-discipline. Finally, if you have any questions, praise or complaints, you can send us an email~ We will reply as soon as we see it Email: xwz@zhyuxwz.com
