PaperTrail - my native TaskPaper client for iOS/iPadOS

I’ve been really busy over the summer. Probably the most productive year of my life to date.

I just launched my latest game, built-in to the Comet web browser from Perplexity.

I’m still working on Dottie, my pixel art app.

And I’ve also created a native iOS/iPadOS TaskPaper client called PaperTrail.

TaskPaper is a format/spec for plain text todo/outline lists. It has support for tags of various types, group tasks by projects, search and filtering, plus shortcut keys to speed up working with your tasks and lists. There’s an official macOS app (it’s great) but no official iOS/iPadOS app.

So I made my own.

It’s already quite feature complete and does more than I need it to. I’m now adding features for the community of other users.

I will eventually sell it on the App Store, but until then you can try it on TestFlight: https://testflight.apple.com/join/w1fCkmcg

The only big things I need to add are the concept of children so I can do collapsible sections by project- or sub-list, and a more freeform search query system. I’ll also keep polishing the details and try to make it work like the macOS app as much as I can.

Congratulations on making this progress and plugging this hole in the market! There was TaskAmator app; but I didn’t find that one very useful. I just use it on occasion for checking my todo list, not for editing it.

Thanks! That’s exactly the reason that pushed me to make this. Some improvements and changes coming soon to this, before getting ready for proper launch.

How does one collapse a section in your app?

Currently, one doesn’t.

Coming soon :slight_smile:
