SkedPal

I’ve been using this app for years. I am pretty all over the place, so there have been moments/months in my life when I haven’t touched it at all. But since 2017, I’ve been looking for an app that does everything that this app does & I keep trying other ones, but find myself back here again! It does have a learning curve, but if you want to take advantage of the tools, you gotta learn how to use them! I have also bothered support many many times with questions & best ways to use the app how I need & they have always been so responsive and wonderful. They want the app to succeed as much as you want it to work for you! Happy to be back again. Took me all of 20 min to set up my recurring tasks, daily routines, etc. There’s honestly nothing else on the market like this app, I’m still surprised it hasn’t blown up more.

I’ve been using SkedPal for a few years now, and the computer program was just what I was looking for—a way to say what I want to do for projects and regularly occurring tasks and then be told how much I need to work on them to get the tasks done. Or, when I’ve been overachieving and can’t get everything done. This companion app doesn’t have a lot of the functionality of the computer software, but provides my daily agenda at a glance so I know what to work on, and permits rescheduling on the go. The new scheduling tool is awesome, and gives me a greater say in how to prioritize when everything doesn’t fit in my schedule. One thing I would like to see is the ability to do partial completes from the agenda when only some of a task is scheduled for the day.

I love the idea of this app, and it’s just what my ADHD brain needs. It is pretty complicated and has a lot of different functions, however, and I hope they’ll develop more training material for understanding it. What they have is thorough and extensive, but I find it overwhelming. I would like a clear progression of text and/or videos: SkedPal 101 with just the basics, then more that walks you through different elements of it. Either that or an online course, which I’d pay for. I know curriculum development is expensive. But I like this app because it can help me with my short-term memory problems and my general overwhelm, and these same problems make it challenging to learn the app.
