GQueues

I have been a loyal GQueues subscriber for years, well over a decade. It should be a five star app, and in all but one crucial respect it’s a terrific app with a terrible name but one flaw that the owner/developer has stubbornly refused to address: despite numerous entreaties, Cameron refuses to develop an Apple Watch app. I’m okay with his Google-centric approach, but c’mon already, you have an iPad and iPhone app that both work great, how can you not have an Apple Watch app given the huge installed base of Apple Watch users? I have asked for this many times over the years, and they have always said that they have other priorities and don’t know when they will get to it. Really! Despite the fact that Apple Watch has been out for 7 years and has millions and millions of users. Enough is enough. I’ll upgrade to 5 stars when Cameron finally gets with the program.

I've used this program for 10 years on my desktop, iPad and iPhone and grow with the program along the way. It's ability to sort, change colors, tags and the ability to drag-and-drop items are the most important things to me on a desktop. The addition of being able to dictate into my iPhone and those projects go into my inbox is especially attractive. Probably the other important thing as far as productivity is that I can dictate the note with a date and time and it will populate into my Google calendar. Response from the company ifs quick and helpful.

GQueues is an excellent web app because of its simplicity, powerful functionality, and efficiency. With the latest update especially, the mobile app preserves these qualities despite the limitations of a mobile environment (e.g. no keyboard shortcuts). The customer service is also surprisingly good. The founder has personally responded to my issues a number of times and gives the impression that he cares deeply about the experience of his users. One thing I would appreciate is an option to have a less compact queue view where the full text of longer task names are not truncated, since scrolling is easier than going back and forth to the task view to see more than ~40 characters of the task name, but this is not a major issue. Al in all, I find the app indispensable for capturing new tasks and ideas, and GQueues is, at least for me, the best software overall for personal productivity.
