Kanbana: Organize Everything

I first acquired this Kanbana app when it was Get and no in-app purchase needed. Then it became Kanbana with Pro as an option. I really found it useful in that the interface was not distracting, I could create a new card, re-organize stack sequence, and change card colors very quickly. I liked that I could enter an idea, and not have to wade through any layers of organization. Functionally, I could choose a color for my cards, and make the stacks arrangement what ever was convenient as I completed projects or priorities changed. After a while, color choices for new cards became limited, but the cards I had in those colors were not affected. The number of cards I could create was limited to 20. I have more than 20 cards because I adopted this Kanbana app when that limitation was not in effectWhen I was no longer able to add new cards, as I completed a card, I changed the original content to “Placeholder” and did not delete the card. I recycled the placeholder card by adding new content.The recent entire make-over of the interface has rendered the user interface very slow. I can’t rearrange stacks now. In attempting to rearrange cards in a stack, There is a delay of three to five seconds before the board responds to a gesture. Maybe a new iPad Pro would allow Kanbana Pro to work very quickly. For now, I am taking the precaution of manually migrating one my board (free version only allows one board and 20 cards.) to a different application before my current installation of Kanbana become completely unusable.

I LOVE this tool! I tried out several alternatives but none had nearly as nice of a layout or were error prone. This application is simple, aesthetically pleasing, and, most importantly, functional. My only complaint would be the payment options. I don’t mind paying for the usage of the app because it provides so many benefits but I don’t think I should be forced to pay monthly or yearly installments for some of the premium features. It would be nice if the developer could introduce a small lump amount to purchase a professional license with fewer benefits than premium. The main ability I want is to be able to manage separate task boards. I don’t need the other premium features so it is annoying to pay a monthly fee for things I don’t need.

I’m a project engineer who uses this app daily. It’s simple, sleek and works well. TBH maybe my favorite part of this app is that it DOESNT suffer from feature creep/bloat. I tried other popular kanban apps and that was one of the main reasons why I switched and stayed on Kanbana. Pros: -Sleek design. Easy on the eyes. Love the font and background. -Easy to use/start using. Very intuitive. -Easy to move tasks and columns around. Can move tasks to other Kanbans -Autosaves after editing tasks. (Although this is standard I think for most kanban apps.) -Different colors for tasks! While this is a simple addition, some of the other apps I tried didn’t have this, was difficult to change on the fly due to bloat, etc. -Multiple device sync with premium! -Multiple kanbans with premium Neutrals: -Rarely, there are graphical glitches during editing tasks. It always reverts to normal after you finish editing them. -Can’t change background. I like the background so nbd. Cons: -None to mention. Additional Features I’d like added -While simple is better and the reason I use this app, I would like more colors. (If GUI space is an issue, colors could scroll horizontal with a swipe when editing tasks.) -Maybe text formatting (tables, bullets etc.)? But then you begin to crowd up the interface... But yeah love the app! Fits my purpose perfectly
