Most to-do apps forget that life repeats, and that you don't do it alone. TaskAnt doesn't. Set a task once, share it with the people you live with, and tick it off. It comes back exactly when it should, and everyone can see what's due, who's on it and when it was done. Feed the cat, take your tablets, water the plants, put the bins out: TaskAnt keeps the whole household in step. SHARE THE LOAD • Connect with partners, family or housemates using a simple code • Share a single task, or a whole group like Home or Pets, including every task you add to it later • Assign tasks to one person or to everyone • See who completed what, and when, in the shared history • Changes appear instantly on everyone's phones • Everyone sharing a task gets its reminders, so it never depends on one person remembering • View-only or edit rights, your choice NEW: COUNTDOWN TIMERS Put the washing on, tap the timer, and TaskAnt tells you when it's done. Share it and whoever's home gets the "Time's up" reminder. • Start a timer from the app or with one tap on the Countdown timers widget • Pause it, add or take off time, or change what's left • Time Sensitive reminders that get through Focus, then every 10 minutes until it's done • Repeatable or one-off: tap + New timer on the widget for a quick one SEE WHAT NEEDS DOING • Overdue, due now and coming up, at a glance • Due, Groups, Days and Timers views, plus search and filters • Paused tasks wait quietly until you need them SCHEDULES THAT FIT REAL LIFE • "Every 3 days after I last did it", or a fixed schedule: daily, weekly, monthly or yearly • Pick the time and time zone • One-off tasks for everything else • Snooze when life gets in the way LINKED TASKS Cleaning the litter tray also means scooping it? Link tasks so finishing one completes the other. WIDGETS YOU CAN TRUST Tick tasks off or start timers right from your home screen. A ticked row says "tap to undo" and records the exact time you tapped it. UNDO FOR EVERYTHING Completed the wrong thing? Snoozed too far? Every action shows what happened, with Undo right there. REMINDERS THAT HELP • Notifications when tasks are due, with Complete and Snooze right in the notification • Optional sync with Apple Reminders • The app icon badge shows how many tasks are overdue KEEP TRACK • Full completion history, with notes • Today, this week, streak and on-time stats • Works offline and syncs when you're back online • Export and import your tasks Your household, in sync.
