SkedPal

This app is a 💯 game changer. I will never not recommend this app. I STRUGGLE with organization. My life and job are dynamic and a Calendar AI is amazing. I am learning about Asana, and I think that integration will be great. Only thing, I wish there was an Apple Watch app. I got my first Apple Watch a couple weeks ago with the purpose of staying organized. In SkedPal I have not figured out how to get alerts 15 minutes before the next event. It has to exist somewhere. If I could have SkedPal on my watch with notifications I would be golden.

Pluses: good rescheduling; tasks in outline form works well with my brain; potentially very powerful; tweaks in colors of tasks and events is helpful; solid calendar integration. Minuses: not very intuitive, steep learning curve (I gave up several hours in and after 10+ videos); had issues with seeing notifications on iOS and Web apps; iOS app does not match the Web app and hasn’t been updated for over a year; natural language processing is far from complete vs similar apps; expensive.

Don’t waste your time like I did. This app and it’s NLP trash are not helpful. I couldn’t even get through the setup before I aborted this app. At the moment I’m trying to reach support to see how I can delete my personal information from their servers and EVEN that is difficult!! OY!

The concept and execution of Skedpal is amazing. The reason I give this 3 stars is because the app itself lacks many important features. Almost all of the settings have to be changed on a computer. Adding sub-tasks is either nonexistent or hidden somewhere where i can’t find it. The UI on the website is clean and intuitive, but on here it feels cheaply made.

Not user friendly at all. No decent instructions or tutorials. Chaotic.

I’ve been using SkedPal for a few years now, and the computer program was just what I was looking for—a way to say what I want to do for projects and regularly occurring tasks and then be told how much I need to work on them to get the tasks done. Or, when I’ve been overachieving and can’t get everything done. This companion app doesn’t have a lot of the functionality of the computer software, but provides my daily agenda at a glance so I know what to work on, and permits rescheduling on the go. The new scheduling tool is awesome, and gives me a greater say in how to prioritize when everything doesn’t fit in my schedule. One thing I would like to see is the ability to do partial completes from the agenda when only some of a task is scheduled for the day.

This software has really helped with my planning ability. The new planning guide on beta looks really good and is quite effective. The modern life needs a task scheduler and doing it manually by hand or with outlook is very time intensive. This software has some missing features like partial completion on the iOS app and adding notes to specific instances of recurring tasks but the ecosystem is sound. Would definitely recommend. Hopefully the price doesn’t go up as it gets better.

I tend to use the desktop app as much or more than mobile but am very happy with both. This app is worth every penny in my opinion

I love the idea of this app, and it’s just what my ADHD brain needs. It is pretty complicated and has a lot of different functions, however, and I hope they’ll develop more training material for understanding it. What they have is thorough and extensive, but I find it overwhelming. I would like a clear progression of text and/or videos: SkedPal 101 with just the basics, then more that walks you through different elements of it. Either that or an online course, which I’d pay for. I know curriculum development is expensive. But I like this app because it can help me with my short-term memory problems and my general overwhelm, and these same problems make it challenging to learn the app.

This app is amazing, especially when paired with calendar and the desktop version, but it needs a more compact and organized view. The current view shows each task as a large rectangle, when I'd like to see something akin to standard reminder app lists, such as 2Do, Reminders, etc... where each task is only a single line, and is only extended if there is extra information or if the user sets an option to make all tasks appear larger.
