This app is filled with all kinds of powerful features that make entering, planning, and managing your tasks smooth. What’s great is that this app can be used for the most simple of task lists or you can use it for more complex tasks and still stay organized and well managed.

Getting to Know the Tools
The Do - Task Manager app has a strong focus on making task management quick and easy and as part of this the task entry itself is incredibly user-friendly. The quick add tasks feature makes it possible to add a task from any other location in the app. There are task filters that you can apply (due date, priority, tag, or context), create projects and then group the tasks in these projects, assign and clear tags and contexts, and set up alerts and reminders for each of the tasks you've entered. As you work through your tasks and complete them they will then be kept track of in your logbook so you can always go back and take a look. If you want to delete a task or a full project, just swipe from the left to the right. Task and file sharing is possible through iTunes, SMS, iMessage, Facebook, and Twitter.
