Help & FAQ
Is the application free of charge?
Downloading the application from the AppStore is free, but you will only be able to create 10 tasks. This will allow you to try the application and see if it fits your needs.
When creating the 11th task, you will be given the opportunity to make an In-App Purchase in order to remove this limit. If you decide to make this purchase, you will then be able to create as many tasks as you wish.
How can I restore an application I purchased?
If you lose your in-app purchase because the app was accidentally deleted (or install it on another device), or if you had to restore your device without a backup, the application won’t recognize your first in-app purchase but you are able to unlock it again for free.
On the app Settings view:
-
tap on the “Buy Full Version” / “Buy Now” buttons: during the process, you will get a message telling you that your previous in-app purchase has been restored, and that you won't be charged again
-
or if it is displayed, hit the “Restore in-app purchase” button
Important note: make sure that your device is connected to the iTunes account you used for the first in-app purchase.
Your in-app purchase will be restored, and you won't be charged again.
You can restore your in-app purchase on up to 5 different iOS devices, using the same iTunes account. More information about in-app purchases at:

How can I create a new task?
On the “Day” tab, hit the “+” button at the top left of the screen, or on the “Task” tab, hit the ‘+’ button at the top right of the screen.
Each task is characterized by:
start and end dates (the task will be valid during this time span, and automatically postponed if not completed by the end date)
-
a status: ongoing, late (but still ongoing, i.e. not pending), pending, completed
-
an alert, if you wish to be notified before the task begins or ends (you can choose between the start and end date in the application settings)
-
a priority level (high, medium, low)
What is a task lifecycle?
When you create a task, its status is “ongoing”.
When its end date is earlier than the current date, it changes to “late”.
It is possible to put a task on standby using the “pending” status: the task is on hold and is no longer displayed in the daily, weekly and monthly views.
Once completed, you have to change the task to the “completed” status (see next section).
How can I terminate a task?
Once an ongoing task has been successfully completed, change its status to “completed” on the task’s detailed information screen.
By default, the closing date is set to the day you complete the task, but you can modify it via the “Completed date” label.
How does the application postpone late tasks?
When the end date of one of your ongoing tasks is earlier than the current date, this task will be automatically postponed to the current day and flagged as “late”. A red icon with an exclamation mark is displayed to the right of the banner.
How is the duration of a task calculated?
The duration of a task corresponds to the number of days between its start and end dates for ongoing or pending tasks.
For completed tasks, the length is calculated using the completed date instead of the end date.
By default, the application calculates durations by taking each day of the week into account.
You are nonetheless able to include only weekdays (from Monday to Friday): simply go the application settings, under the “Tasks / Durations” category.
How is the task list sorted?
By default, the task list is sorted by end date, in chronological order.
You can modify the criterion used for sorting in the application settings, under the “Task / Display order”. Other choices include the task name, the priority or the start date.
How can I create a “day note”?
The application enables you to associate a comment, which includes text and can include a picture, to every day. You will thus be able to remember a specific event or important information for that day.
On the “Day” view, hit the blue “Day note” label at the bottom right of the screen, then enter your comment and optionally attach a picture.
How can I link a contact to a task?
Select your task, then the “name” section.
Tap the “Select Contact” button, then choose the contact in your address book. He/she is now linked to the task.
Once a contact is linked to a task, tap its button to:
remove the link from the contact
replace it with another contact
send him an e-mail (if the contact has an e-mail address)
call him (iPhone only, if the contact has a phone number)
When the task is completed, the app asks you if you want to send an e-mail to this contact.
Saving and transferring data to another device:
How can I save the application data?
Application data backup is a built-in feature of your iPhone-iPad and iTunes, as long as you regularly synchronize your device with iTunes on your PC or Mac.
At the beginning of the syncing process, iTunes saves the following data from your device:
Contacts and Contact favorites
App Store Application data
Application settings, preferences and data
Music, videos, photos, etc.
When you change your device, or even with your current device, you are able to restore that backup with iTunes. You will thus be able to retrieve all the data and content saved during the last syncing.

You can also use the “iTunes Database export” feature (see below) to run an individual backup of your application data. Be careful to properly save the “Database_Export.db” file on your PC or Mac.
