Would have been five star if has syncing. When you create a file. That file is in the local app of that device. It’s not synced to another device. Not in iCloud either. You have to export it into iCloud manually. And then you think the changes would just reflect in the iCloud file right? Nope. The iCloud file is a copy of the in-app file. So when you open the file in iCloud on another device, it would be the version of the file at the moment you exported it. And you would have two copies on two separate devices.

Sounds confusion right? Because it is.
It’s basically the same saving and syncing mechanism from early 2010s, but without the save button beyond export.

Workaround for syncing:
1. Make sure you export the file to iCloud when you done working or viewing a project on each device, and export the file to replace the old file.
2. Close the app after you have exported, as your edit won’t then be saved on the iCloud copy.
3. When you open that file on another device, it creates a local in-app file. You are no longer working with the iCloud file. So export and replace the iCloud file afterwards, and close the in-app file, so that you don’t accidentally mistaken it as the newest version when you have worked on another copy of the file on another device.

In 2026, this is still how the “syncing” mechanism of this works. Tell me if I’m missing anything.

I assume it’s not a difficult fix, to just have one source of truth.

Otherwise the app has been great. But the lack of syncing, or even saving creates too much risk in the PM work.

I need control over duration units

Thompson Danny B • Feb 24, 2025 ★ 5

Great app. My only wish is that it would print/send filtered reports. But still great app. I use it everyday

I share a project between iphone and ipad, a complex gantt trscking the building of our house.
I think it is outstanding. I’d like a way to highlight days where no work was done. I’d also like a way to put multiple milestones on one line.
All in all, it’s quick, intuitive, powerful, and it has nice output functions.
Good for tracking progress, easy to update steps as time elapses.

@Vlad@ • Feb 11, 2023 ★ 5

Very nice and handy app. Maybe need an option for iPad and iPhone not allowing to change a chart on the first touch. Accidentally happen when you want to manipulate the chart.

Marvellous Contractor • Jun 13, 2022 ★ 5

Nothing compatible with others! Good easy and organize to share with other!

Ferrpo • Sep 20, 2021 ★ 5

It’s rare for an app of this quality to be available for a 1-time purchase. It’s absolutely worth the plunge. Gantt charts can be quite complex, so it’s remarkable how intuitive this app makes managing them, particularly with how small my phone’s screen is compared to an iPad. I am a market research professional and have been using the app every day for a year as a personal tracker for the status of survey fieldwork. I can’t speak to any collaboration features or the desktop app, but for my purposes, it gets a strong recommendation.

Update: the developer responded with inane cut-and-paste. Clearly my review is titled to acknowledge the issue. My point is that I am certain most serious users are iPad, and Apple store shows your iPhone version first or only. My review stands because you dont have the integrity to boldly say this is this the wrong version for iPad.

I purchased this APP for my iPad and the first thing that I noticed is that the APP is not only optimized for iPhone, but that if you do not own an iPhone, the APP will still run on your iPad, but it will be cumbersome and difficult to use.

Personally, I always carry my iPad with me. The thought of trying to use Gantt charts on a tiny phone screen is really anathema. What real function could you hope to gain?

Now that I am an older gent, I don’t use my phone for any financial or business inquiry. All of that is done on my iPad where data can be displayed in a functional fashion.

To me this version, is a total gimmick. If you see it first on the search list on Apple store, keep scrolling down, they have a superior iPad version that is twice the price, but actually works the way that the iPhone promises but does not deliver.

If you accidentally purchase this version this version and want to upgrade to the iPad version, there is no Customer Service or Support. The seller is unresponsive. Their site says that you can purchase both, but no refunds. I have tried, but in the long run, I paid almost $30 for the iPad version. I like it, it works great.

STAY AWAY from this version. Please.

I love the app. I use it everyday. I wish I could see more than 5 projects in the “today” button. I would pay for the upgrade if it were available

zontarone • Jun 27, 2019 ★ 5

Easy, Intuitive. I can easily organize our construction projects and email PDFs to my employees. I also use it to track upcoming projects and prospects. Worth every penny!

Zadokite • May 27, 2019 ★ 3

This is very frustrating. I use my iPad to search for an app that does Gannt charts, and the iPhone version of this app comes up first. It seems to do what I need, so I buy it, only later so I find out that it’s NOT a universal app, and that if I want the iPad native version, I would have to pay something like $18 to get that! It’s ridiculous that this shows up first when I’m searching from an iPad and doubly ridiculous that it’s not just a universal app that runs on all my devices! Very disappointed, feel ripped off, and never buying anything from this developer again.

Sconnelly4 • Dec 30, 2018 ★ 1

I’ve tried everything and searched everywhere, and there is not button or option to link tasks. Even after figuring out how to add the predecessor column, I still can’t add any predecessors to it. This is one of the most basic and critical functions required for project management. Major bug here that there must be many complaints about. Please fix.

HS62 • Nov 4, 2018 ★ 5

Now that my sync issue with the app has been solved, I’m giving the app 5 stars. Does exactly what I need it to in a way that’s more intuitive and actually syncs much better than OmniPlan which I used previously.

tonytruong0320 • Oct 21, 2018 ★ 4

I’m a Technical Project Manager, Product Manager and ScrumMaster. Having this app on my phone really helps me plan, maintain and adjust resources when I’m away from my laptop. The UX feels like Microsoft Project without the complex overhead. I’ve been using this for nearly a month to manage personal and work relate projects. It’s simple to use, intuitive for beginners and have the common used fields out of the box. The major issue I have and the reason stopping me from giving it 5 stars is that the app crashes when trying to add two or more resources. The crash is constant and very annoying. Luckily the last change does get saved before it crash so you don’t have to redo things.

1. Horizontal scroll without rubber bands effect.
2. Would it release a windows or a web version?
3. Would it support import/output “gantt project” files?

Redlimit835 • Jun 29, 2018 ★ 4

Can only schedule tasks in whole day increments. Very limiting for detailed breakdowns. Looks and works well but I can make the same level of detail faster in excel.

Draxx4789 • Apr 25, 2018 ★ 5

I really enjoy using this app. It’s intuitive, visually appealing, and very usable on an iPhone sized screen which is difficult to accomplish when working with this sort of content. Worth much more than the price.

restaurationarchitect • Mar 28, 2018 ★ 5

All I expect from a planning app.

boldcity • Feb 22, 2018 ★ 4

The limit on 4 levels of deep-ness in an outline is limiting for larger projects. Outlines shouldn’t have forced limits on depth.

I’m going to see how the sub-projects work for us, since they have that as a feature... But in my mind I’d rather just collapse a group when I don’t want to see its details and expand it when I do want to see its details.

Frozencoastie • Aug 13, 2017 ★ 5

This is a simple, effective and surprisingly powerful scheduling software that can be used in lieu of MS Projects (and on the mobile platform). Since graduating, I have used on real world projects as a consultant, keeping myself more organized and efficient.

I would like to see a more precise scheduling options that would allow to schedule tasks as hours instead of days to complete a single tasks. But the overall usability of this app results in a 5 star rating.
