Appreciate the feedback. What do you like about Strongbox's model? Is it the availability of a lifetime plan?

That makes sense for a solo project, but there are three of us working on this so it's helpful to use CI/CD.

Thank you so much for the feedback and suggestions: > 1. totally encrypted/syncing etc (iOS in the roadmap ;) We're considering offering an encrypted cloud service, or alternatively, integrating with Dropbox/Google Drive.

Yes, I've wired it up to work with Github Actions so it's automatic now - but it wasn't easy.

Yes, we have a mechanism to notify the user of updates and other important messages - they just show up like a special type of task (which can be marked done, or snoozed). It's checking this URL: https://nowdo.org/msg.j

Absolutely - with NowDo you just hit Ctrl+Opt+A (from any app) and type the task, hit enter - and then you can safely forget about it and get back to what you were doing. Making it as easy and non-interruptive as possible to add tasks was a

It's a similar concept, but that only allows you to specify one task at a time. With NowDo you have a "queue" of tasks, as you mark each as done the next one is shown.

Thank you, I've added the multiple task selection to our issue tracker. We could add a feature that will load/store the task list to a specified directory like Dropbox or Google Drive, I'll give this some more thought.

There are, what makes NowDo unique is that I've whittled the feature set down to an absolute minimum - based on over 2 years of prototyping and usage. With NowDo the lack of features is its most important feature.

There was a tool called "OneTask" about a decade ago that I really liked and which served as a lot of the inspiration for NowDo. Unfortunately its creators fell into the trap of adding a bunch of features which ruined it IMHO. It&

I'll give a web version some thought - we do plan to create Windows and Linux versions but perhaps a web version should be a higher priority.
