Taskly +
Read full descriptionHide full description
Taskly is a task manager and home maintenance tracker. Use it alone to stay on top of your to-do list and home upkeep. Share it with your household, roommates, or friends. Assign work, and know when it gets done. New: your credit cards may owe you money. Taskly+ tracks the credits that come with your cards and reminds you before they expire. TASKLY+: USE THE CARD CREDITS YOU ALREADY PAY FOR Premium cards charge real fees and pay you back in credits: dining, rides, travel, streaming. Miss the deadline and the money is gone. Taskly+ tracks it all. - Pick the cards you carry. See the credits that come with them. - Get a reminder before a credit expires. - Mark credits used and watch your savings add up. - See when a card has earned back its fee. - Subscription credits can track themselves. Taskly+ is $4.99 a month or $29.99 a year, with 14 days free. Looking at your cards, their credits, and the yearly value costs nothing. TRACK BENEFITS, NOT CARD DATA Taskly never asks for a card number, a bank login, or your purchases. You only pick the card products you hold, and that is all we ever know. WHY THERE ARE NO ADS Most card advice online is a wall of ads, because ads are how those sites get paid. We charge for Taskly+ instead, so our only job is keeping the information right. Every card shows its official source and when we last checked it. YOUR OWN TASK LIST Make tasks for yourself and never lose track of what to do. Add due dates, set them to repeat, and see only what is urgent on the Active tab, with no clutter in the way. MAINTENANCE ITEMS WITH COUNTDOWN TIMERS Track jobs that come up again and again, like filter swaps, appliance care, and safety checks. Each item shows a countdown, so you always know how much time is left, and when a job comes due it moves into your active list on its own. ASSIGN TO OTHERS, REQUIRE PROOF Connect with anyone who has Taskly and assign tasks to them. You can mark a task so it needs a photo before it counts as done, and without the photo there is no checkmark. Great for chores, home jobs, and anything you need to see done. RECURRING TASKS THAT RUN THEMSELVES Set tasks to repeat by day, week, or month. They come back on their own each time, so you never have to make the same task twice. KNOW THE MOMENT THINGS HAPPEN Get a nudge the moment someone gives you a task or marks one done. No more checking in to find out. YOUR DATA, YOUR PRIVACY Taskly uses iCloud to keep your data private and safe. Sign in with Apple means no password to recall and no new account to make. No ads, and we never sell your data. THE FINE PRINT Card benefits are set by the card issuers and can change at any time. Taskly is a tracking tool, not financial advice, and does not guarantee that any credit will post. Confirm current terms with your issuer. Card and program names belong to their owners and are used only to say which card is which. Taskly+ renews on its own until you cancel in your App Store settings.
