Tasker vs Friday Folder

Tasker is a task manager and day planner built on one principle: your plans are yours. Everything lives on your device and syncs only through your own iCloud - there's no Tasker account to create, no server that sees your data, and no tracking. Ever. It scales from a quick checklist to running your whole week. PLAN YOUR DAY, NOT JUST A LIST - Give each task a time estimate and energy level, then let the day planner pack a realistic day within the time you actually have - and tell you what won't fit. - "Available now" shows only what you can truly start: nothing deferred, nothing blocked, nothing waiting on someone else. - Defer/start dates keep future work out of sight until it's actionable. STAY ON TOP OF EVERYTHING - Projects with target dates, progress rollups, and flags when something falls behind or stalls. - Daily and weekly reviews surface what's overdue, due, newly active, or stuck. - A customizable board - rename, recolor, and reorder your own columns. - Recurring tasks with habits and streaks. TASKS THAT KNOW WHERE YOU ARE - Pin a task to a place and get reminded when you arrive or leave. - "Available here" answers the only question that matters in the moment: what can I get done right now, right here? AI ASSISTANTS YOU ACTUALLY CONTROL - Delegate work to AI assistants with a clear trust ladder, spending budgets, and quiet hours. - Every action they take is a plain-sentence request you approve, with a receipt you can undo. - Bring your own AI key - it stays on your device, and nothing leaves it unless you say so. WRITE THINGS DOWN - Built-in Pages: a lightweight wiki for notes, plans, and project docs, exportable to PDF, Word, or text. - Attach files, images, audio, and video to any task. PRIVATE BY DESIGN - No account, no sign-up, no ads, no analytics. - Your notes can be end-to-end encrypted with a key only your devices hold. - Syncs through your private iCloud database - your data is never on our servers, because we don't have any. MADE FOR IPHONE, IPAD, AND MAC - Native on all three, with quick capture and completion through Siri and Shortcuts. FREE, WITH NO CATCH Every feature is free. If Tasker earns a place in your day, you can leave a tip to support development - but nothing is locked behind it. Tasker is made by PurvaKalpa Studios. https://eswarvenigalla.substack.com/p/tasker-privacy-policy https://eswarvenigalla.substack.com/p/tasker-terms-of-use

Forward school email to your family's private address. Every notice becomes a clean task list — nothing to type, ever. Friday Folder is the only family app that works when nobody opens it. Give your school one email address, and permission slips, picture days, spirit weeks, and field-trip fees turn into tasks — signed, paid, packed, and worn on time. HOW IT WORKS • Your family gets a private forwarding address — add it to the parent portal once, done forever • AI reads each notice and pulls out exactly what a parent must do: sign, pay, pack, wear, RSVP • Attachments count too — the flyer or permission slip in a PDF or Word doc is read like the email itself • Every task links back to the original notice — see the exact sentence it came from • Snap paper notices with the camera, or share emails and PDFs straight in EVERY MORNING AT 6:30 One push with what has to happen today, per child. Short enough to read at a stoplight. SHARE THE LOAD Invite a co-parent or grandparent. Helpers can check things off; viewers just see everything. No extra subscription — they share yours. BUILT FOR REAL FAMILIES • One shopping list and one signature sweep across every child • Family calendar that catches conflicts — both kids, same Thursday, 1pm • Kids at different schools? Mail from each school routes to the right child • Never guesses which child a notice is for — it asks • Add any school event to your own calendar with one tap • Notices with nothing to do are filed and searchable, not lost Friday Folder is a subscription with a free trial; plans are shown in the app. Billed through Apple; cancel anytime. Your family's notices are yours: never sold, never used for ads, never used to train AI models. Delete everything anytime.
