I am eagerly awaiting the iOS lists feature. I will gladly be a beta tester for this and other mobile features if you need it.

Thanks for the Monthly Progress Report. The Android App is shaping up well.
Unfortunately still no new features or major improvements in the Task tab of TD on the Web. Please think of improving the main function of TD. Thanks. |

I am quite glad to see that the upcoming Android app update will fix the issue of not being able to sync without turning on auto-sync. It's something that has annoyed me for some time, happy to see it resolved. The Android app has definitely made so many strides since you took over that app, keep it up!

Agree that more focus is needed on the task tab . Would be interesting to know how many people actually subscribed [paid ] to get access to the outlines and lists and habits features . They are nice but I'd be surprised to find they're your bread and butter .
Everyone I tell about toodledo is impressed with the power , but they don't stick with it and they don't subscribe because of the appearance . |

Could update caused failing login on new device setup/old device with a changed user login email, and 2 factor turned on - I turned off security, etc. new password, still nothing on known good (in past) ios and now new Ipad - looking forward to new features - if they don't affect existing functionality!

If the functionality is the best on the market but it's not pretty enough, functionality should win over. If it doesn't... I don't even know what to say to that. Maybe take another look at your priorities? |

Unfortunatelly, that is not how market works :-) So we need nicer ToDo's to get more Toodledo customers, to make Toodledo more profit, to allow Toodledo to make you happy :-) This message was edited May 08, 2015. |

We are right in the middle of a redesign that will make everything prettier. We are nearly done with Outlines and Lists and will be moving on to Tasks and Notes shortly.

This is good stuff. Not many companies would publish a quasi-scorecard like this. While I'd much rather have indented subtasks in iOS, I understand the need to focus on UX.
With the endless configuration options (which is GREAT) it is imperative there's not "Advanced" forms with buttons to "Super Advanced" forms with a button to "Double-Secret Advanced" forms (simply as a way to place new elements for new features)...where functionality is present yet lost due to lack of UX focus. I look forward to the re-skin. |
