On the other hand, TodayToDo is flexible App. Users can change as they wish, once users choose tasks to finish on a day and paste them on a screen. Users can change Work Time and commencing time based on a facing reality.
TodayToDo has its own screen to ease prioritizing
It is needless to say however, beginning with more important thing is also a key issue to manage time. To make it happened, users have to commence in accordance with a priority among things to do. This is easy to say, but tough to realize.
In order to achieve prioritization, TodayToDo has its own prioritize screen where users can set due dates and relative importance between ToDoItems. On it, drag and drop work visually, so users can do prioritizations of ToDoItems by sight.
With an estimated Work Time above, these two more information become sort keys on TodayToDo. The order of sort keys is days left by Due Date first, time period of Work Time second and relative importance between items having the same Due Date and Work Time.
Now then, users can find tasks mentioned in priority order from the top on a screen where you exact items to do on a day. By this function, users no longer need to worry about forgetting nor missing items to complete by each Due Date.
Moving between screens buy one&two-finger swipe
TodayToDo has Diary screen where Calendar events and tasks are shown all together. Users choose ToDoItems on Item List screen and move to Calendar screen.
In order to choose tasks appropriately, users can move between these two screens by two-finger swipe. Owing to this swipe function, users become able to have look at empty time slots in between Calendar events and recognize approximate time length available to proceed tasks on a day.
In addition, users can move from day to day by one-finger swipe on Diary.
Paste tasks Semi-Automatically
Once users choose tasks for today by touching items’ check boxes, tasks are pasted on Calendar screen semi-automatically by putting a button to Calendar screen.
After this, users are able to change commencing time and let estimated Work Time become a target time period on Calendar screen.
Because users can do these visually, it is easy to set and change later again according to the latest circumstances. Again, TodayToDo is flexible App in order to enable users to complete tasks efficiently and shortly by managing users limited time.
Working hour and lunch time setting
TodayToDo has a function to fix Working Hour on week days. Please be reminded, selected tasks are pasted semi-automatically. It means, tasks are pasted during Working Hour only.
This Working Hour could be fixed on Diary Screen by clicking “Rock Icon” at the top.
Daily lunch time could be set as users wish. Lunch time period is mentioned on Calendar Screen.
If some task is pasted over lunch time, its length will be extended for a length of lunch time accordingly.
In a case, empty time slots are not long enough for selected items, the lowest item in priority will be pasted on the next day.
This mechanism is helping users not to work too long without awarenesses. This is the main reason why TodayToDo is capable to keep work-life balance at an appropriate level for each user.
