Overview

PopTask is a task manager for iPhone, iPad and Mac where the input is a sentence rather than a form. Typed or dictated, a task like a meeting reminder for a specific time parses into a scheduled item with the right date, duration and list, in the time it would take to open a scheduling picker.

Tolerance for messy input is the design point. Typos, shorthand and abbreviations still resolve to the intended task, which matters because the moment a capture tool demands precision, users stop capturing.

Two-way sync with Apple Calendar, Google Calendar and Reminders keeps it inside an existing setup rather than becoming another silo. The Apple-only footprint rules it out for anyone on Windows or Android, and the app is free to start.

Key features

  • Plain-language task capture by typing or dictation
  • Automatic scheduling from the parsed sentence
  • Tolerance for typos and shorthand input
  • Sync with Apple Calendar, Google Calendar and Reminders
  • Native iPhone, iPad and Mac applications
  • Free to download and start using
