Never forget a return visit again or be frustrated trying to find you paper notes!

Ratings and reviews

Good app! I use it almost every day! Only minor issues I have is that it's not so clear how to use this app with Territory Helper (e.g. importing/exporting and synchronizing territories-Tutorial?) Also it would be nice if the scheduler calendar feature would allow individual duplicate schedule entries for different months and days without having to always highlight and copy several days each time for every month/week (slow process). Thanks for your hard work, practical and productive app!

I really like the app and find it very useful. The only caveat is entering numbers in the Number/Letter field. When entering houses I think this field should default to numeric input. That would negate having to toggle from the alpha keyboard to numeric. Better yet, why not enable a setting to allow the user to choose their preference. Just a thought. Thanks.

This app is so useful in keeping track of my time and placements! Thank you for all the hard work you have done to make it available! I do wish there was a way to keep the timer from closing by mistake. There have been times when I had the timer rolling and I mistakenly closed it out somehow, before recording my time. I wish that when the timer is going, if anything prompts the timer to close, there was an "Are you sure?" prompt. Otherwise, I love this app! Thanks again!
