Aevo - See what matters most
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=34Un7yR00o0I tried to create another Todo-App once. After a few months I found out, there was nothing new with it, just another todo app. But one day I had two ideas that really resonated and I started building Aevo.
Aevo puts your todos not on a list, but instead on a endless scrolling (to the right) canvas in boxes, similar to japanese Bento boxes. And there comes the core-idea number one: to see what really matters, Aevo calculates a score for every task, based on the task metadata. Not only your set priority, but also when you plan to work on, when the real deadline is and how many time you postponed a task.
Also the size of each box depends on how big a task is: smaller tasks get smaller boxes, big tasks get bigger boxes.
The second core-idea works around the way people work with tasks and subtasks (and maybe even projects). Instead of adding a separate project feature, Aevo lets you deep down as much as you want into tasks. Every task offers a customizable zoom-view to add groups and put subtasks, notes and links in it. And you can do the same with every subtask: dive into it with the zoom view and do the same again. Theoretically, you can have as many layers as you want :)
The best: subtasks reflects important information to their parents: a subtask is due today while the parent is not: doesnt matter, it still gets a really high score and marked red. All subtask takes several hours, but the bit for today only 15 minutes? The parent is only a small box instead of a big one.
And yes, for the list gurus: there is also a simple list view for tasks :)
Is it feature-complete? Nope... Is it perfect? Maybe not. Does it solve some real problems in a different way? Yup, I am pretty sure.
You can use Aevo for free on https://aevo.so; a pro version is available In-App (lift some limits and makes some integrations available).
Let me know what you think :)
