Scrolling by flick can move text - Ugh

lowell. on

United States

Still a problem - and fatal for me. Using the scroll bar feature works well and can quickly move from top to bottom of a file be sliding your finger tip from top to bottom of the edge of the screen. But the normal method of scrolling up or down on an iPhone remains how Steve Jobs demonstrated it in 2007. Flicking up and down the screen. 14 years of muscle and brain memory is really hard to stop using. And this is Taskmator's failure. I regularly see some random bit of text flying up the screen to a new location without doing a "tap and hold" to select the text I want to move somewhere rose. The problem with the super speed of dragging to the top of the document after just starting to drag seems to have been fixed. So the inadvertent move does seem constrained to be modestly local to the starting location. When I do use tap and hold it seems to have a significant delay before popping the text up to move. This is good and I wonder how flicking can get past this delay. Perhaps if tap and hold to move is set to only work when the text is STATIONARY. Just thinking. I will not give up on Mac TaskPaper as it is one of the most creative apps ever introduced. I use it every day and a lot. Thank you to Jesse Grosjean. Just duplicate TaskPaper on IOS and you can have a real winner.

Dropbox doesn't work; Files app integration is dicey

Doodaddy on

The direct Dropbox integration doesn't work at all -- maybe it was abandoned when the Files app integration got added? Or so it would seem. Sadly, the Files app integration is quite bad; syncing doesn't seem to happen. Also (maybe related?) there's some weird lagginess if you turn off Apple Reminders integration. This app might be okay if you're only working with local files on your iPad, but if you want to store your Taskpaper files in the cloud. Essentially, this seems like abandonware. Stay away.

Keeps crashing. No updates. Was this abandoned?

TheGreenGoose on

United States

I’m frustrated by frequent crashes and menu options not working. Edit: where do I find version 3.9994? The last iOS version 5.46 is 3 months old. Edit 2: tried contacting the developer but received no revert ☹️

Very good

Well thought out.

One of a few indispensable iOS apps

Brobdignagian on

I was slow to accept TaskMator because of its visual paradigm. When I make a task list on paper, each item has a check box and I check that when it’s done. If I strike through the task, it means I decided against it - decided the task wasn’t a priority. TaskMator, like other TaskPaper apps, strikes through completed tasks, which makes less sense to me and makes my record of completed work harder to read. TaskMator just works so well that it won me over anyway. It’s simple, easy, reliable, synchronized across all my devices, and the tagging mechanism makes it easy to filter my lists to see what I want - quicker and easier in most cases than a “real database” app. I use TaskMator not just for task tracking, but for other lists like groceries, packing lists, and items I am collecting. It’s one of my most-used apps.

Developer Stands By His Work

Mikeybd on

United States

I have been using task paper for 8 years with my job. It’s critical to what I do, and there is nothing that replaces it. Taskmator is an excellent app, although last year it took a while for it to be properly updated. Although Amit doesn’t get a lot of money from this app, he still supports it. I would pay much more for it, it’s that important to me.

Many strengths, some weaknesses

angusmci on

First, the good: this is a much-needed app, filling a gap created when the developer of the original Taskpaper app abandoned iOS to concentrate on the Mac version. The text editor Editorial, which seemed like the best alternative to the original Taskpaper, appears to be abandonware now: the developer hasn’t upgraded it to work with Apple’s Files, which is pretty much a dealbreaker these days. Enter Taskmator, which can read and write Taskpaper files, and is fully up-to-date with the current set of iOS technologies, including Files. It presents the files attractively and clearly, and provides all the basic tools you need for working with them. If you happen to like the Taskpaper format — a simple plaintext format for to-do lists — then this is the app you want. Now the bad news. First, it’s not entirely stable. I’ve managed to hang it a few times, most often when using the ‘Move …’ menu. Second, the UI could be better. On a desktop app, I’d say that it was “mousey”: lots of mouse-clicks are needed to get anything done. I’m not sure what the equivalent is for a mobile app: “fingery?” “touchy?” So, for example, adding a new project heading requires you to press the ‘+’, which creates a new task item, then click on the new item, then click the ‘…’ icon to bring up the menu, then choose ‘Item Type …’ and finally choose ‘Project’. That’s a lot of clicks just to make one new item. And you haven’t even put it where you want it, which requires a whole new set of clicks. This could definitely be handled better. Items can be moved, re-ordered and re-parented using drag and drop, which is a reasonable way to do it. However, on my phone, I sometimes found that the drag system either didn’t respond at all or responded suddenly and unexpectedly, resulting in the item being dragged to the wrong location. Maybe Up/Down and Indent/Outdent buttons, as seen in some other outliners, would work better. You can, of course, also use the ‘…’ pop-up menu to move items, but that’s not ideal. Given the absence of competition, these aren’t exactly dealbreakers, but it does mean that working with Taskmator is a lot less efficient and enjoyable than it could be. The results are nice, but everything takes longer than it needs to.

I don’t typically leave reviews but

I’m trying to get into using TaskPaper after using every other todo list over the years. I was looking for an iOS client and this seems like the best bet. Good lord this thing crashes every 5 minutes and is so finicky, I accidentally mark things as done constantly due to the poorly implemented gestures. Gonna try Drafts 5 instead. Buyer beware

Had high hopes...

theitsmith on

I had high hopes for this app and what it promised to offer for TaskPaper enthusiasts. But the iPad version of this app wasn’t at all useful—even for this review, the app doesn’t correctly present the keyboard; I had to adjust my orientation to get the keyboard to display correctly and to be useable. Using the app, I was never able to work on a single TaskPaper document-the interface is simply unusable. I’m using an iPad Air 2 with iPad OS 14.3. The iPhone version works alright, but the interface feels very dated. I still use TaskPaper concepts, but I no longer use these dedicated apps.

Nice app but for 2 things

johnnyappleseed001 on

United States

Amit, thanks for making this app. It’s a very nice app but please consider my suggestions. Thank you! 1. Please make it more difficult to accidentally grab and move items when scrolling through the task list. I accidentally grab and move things all the time when scrolling, and then I have to figure out if I indeed actually moved it and if so where in the heck I grabbed it from. It’s a reoccurring royal pain. Please make scrolling more user-friendly. 2. Please do something so that we do not lose our data when syncing with iCloud. I totally lost my entire Taskpaper file when syncing to iCloud with Taskmator. I’m a grown man, and I almost cried. User Tip: I highly recommend that all users backup your Taskmator files by selecting and holding the file name and then selecting “Duplicate.” Better safe than sorry, and it’s relatively easy to do.
