Planner for iPad - Weekly Calendar and Tasks

Planner for iPad puts your weekly agenda and todo list on the same page. A calendar on the left, a list of tasks on the right. New features just added (see below) and on sale for a limited time.

This format is very popular in many bound paper planners. Its a comfortable way to stay organized. The tasks stay put no matter what week it is, and you can cycle between your current, someday, and completed tasks. My wife used to move a post-it note with tasks on it from week to week; she inspired the layout.

Planner integrates with the built-in Calendar app to provide event alerts on the default calendar. Manage your life from the app; since the events show up on the regular calendar you can see your events and reminders on your phone or desktop.

You can enable sync to import events from the built-in Calendar app. If your Calendar app is set up to sync with Google Calendar or MobileMe (or others), those events will show up in Planner. If you make changes to them, theyll be syncd. The color of imported events is determined by your settings in those applications (ie, if your MobileMe events are green, theyll be green in Planner and you wont be able to adjust their color from within the app).

Quick entry: you only need to type a word or two to create an event or a task.

Planner tries to make it easy for you to plan your week and get more done. It doesnt have dozens of task categories, tags, a half dozen status lists, and mandatory workflows. Youre better off with another app if you need that; this one will never be busier than you.

* Note that you have to create each event and cant specify a recurrence period in this release.
