App Planner is a simple way to store, organize, and manage your app ideas in one place. Built for developers who want a dedicated system for storing app ideas and tracking development progress. Create an entry for every app idea and track its progress over time. Whether an idea is still just a future dream, actively in development, or already live, App Planner makes it easy to see where everything stands in one simple dashboard view. You can also store important details like descriptions, categories, supported platforms, monetization type, and open development tasks. Task management is built directly into your app planning workflow. You can create tasks and assign priorities so you always know what’s complete and what still needs done. App Planner Pro helps you plan versions and releases. You can map out future versions, set deadlines, and track progress from one release to the next. It’s easy to see what versions are live, what’s in development, and what’s planned next, making it easier to build apps with the future roadmap in mind. App Planner is designed specifically for app developers. The interface is clean and distraction-free, the workflow is fast and intuitive, and every feature is focused on real app development needs. There’s no clutter and no unnecessary tools, just a better way to plan and build apps. If you have lots of app ideas and you want a place to store them so you don’t forget them, or you are a developer who wants a better way to manage and track your app projects, App Planner is for you. β€”β€” Here’s the simple breakdown: App Planner (free) - Store and manage unlimited app ideas. - Attach app icon, categories, platforms, monetization methods, detailed notes, and tasks. - Full task management capabilities at the app level.
