Lunatask: A Better To-Do List 4+

Helped me get my life together

This is THE best habit and task tracking app I’ve ever used. I have ADHD and can easily fall out of good habits if there are too many moving parts to keep track of. Having my journal, notes, relationship tracker, habits, AND tasks in one app is the best thing ever. The informative clarity available through the changes log and the sincere communication and receptive attitude via the Idea Portal make it clear that Mike sincerely cares about providing a product that will help people. The free version alone is overwhelmingly worthwhile on its own. And the paid versions are reasonable prices. [not to mention the student/educator discounts offered]. User friendly graphics and user interface. Clear and non-condescending explanations for each component. I feel empowered through Lunatask!! A heartfelt thank you for such a wonderful product. <3

I LOVE IT

I am a senior in high school, have severe ADHD, and have had so much trouble with organization in the past, but this app is a game changer! I am still on the free version of the app, but am considering paying for premium, as I already love the app so much!! I love how you can create good AND bad habits to track. I also LOVE how you can drag your tasks into the calendar and change the amount of time spent on them. It helps me to not be as overwhelmed when starting work. I also love how you can track your mood and put notes in for the day!!

Suggestions:
-I think having a calendar that extends into the future so you can add in scheduled appointments in the future could be really helpful
-Adding more moods such as stressed, tired, unproductive, motivated, and excited could be really fun instead of just having emotions on a range from happy to sad
-Making it so that when you have checkboxes for sub-tasks in the notes of tasks, if you check one or more of the boxes, it changed the status to in progress or shows the percentage of completion or something

I LOVE THIS APP

Developer Response ,

Hi there, thanks a lot! Did you find the emotion picker? There are currently 54 emotions you can attach to your mood (look for "add more" button above the mood picker) – the ability to add your own custom emotions is coming to Lunatask next year. Showing more days on the calendar also gets mentioned quite a lot. We will be improving that shortly, starting with the ability to see tomorrow (given so many people like to plan their days in the evening ahead). I love your third point – if it does not produce an annoying jump as the task moves up the list, let's add it. Timers already do what you say – starting the timer marks the task as started automatically too!

Best to do app I’ve tried

I’ve tried so many to do apps. I was frustrated with all of them and was considering writing my own to do app. Finding Lunatask spared me having to do so (so far). It works like I think, in Areas and Goals, and provides freeform markdown notes. And it provides a “what should I do next?” list, immensely useful.

It’s not perfect. It lacks in some filterability. It doesn’t do projects great (not a big for me with my personal productivity, I just link to project boards or wherever as needed) or dependencies (but I don’t think that’s its goal). And I think the pinned features is misguided in its current state, it can’t pin tasks across Areas. I’d give it 5 stars if it offered a way to pin or somehow prioritize tasks across areas.

But it works well enough, better than all others.

I'm glad to save you some time – these things take a while to build!
