Wasted all this time setting it up only to find out you can't share anything to it. God don't they know what the internet is about? Another stupid, one dimensional app that can't see people doing anything outside of itself.

Ravennah Black

When I went to login with the same google account I use on the web version.... it told me there was an authorization error. Uninstalled then reinstalled.... same problem. There's no point in using this app if I can't login to the same account in both places....

Webapp and iOS versions are great... For Android is ridiculous, don't have canvas mode etc. Please develop a better version for Android.

Jianlin Chen

Better update

Trevor Paddock

Not enough functionality in the free version to make it useful. There should be a low-cost home version. Home users don't necessarily need all the functionality of the business version but should at least be able to create multiple projects. I see great potential here but you may want to revisit your plans re. how you intend to make money. I would be willing to pay a one time fee, but not a subscription. Uninstalling for now.

Hi David, Sorry to hear your not happy with the app. With a free account, 5 people can collaborate within the same project. Regarding other sharing features, I'd love to hear your thoughts, so if you could send us an email at contact@droptask.com, I'd really appreciate it.

Ravennah Black May 5, 2017

Think Productivity May 10, 2017

Webapp and iOS versions are great... For Android is ridiculous, don't have canvas mode etc. Please develop a better version for Android.

Think Productivity May 10, 2017

Sorry to hear this, we've been actively developing the Android app and with the aim to deliver an excellent experience. Unfortunately the Android app doesn't have the canvas view at the moment, but we're planning to add it in a future update. If you would be interested in speaking to a member of our team please get in touch at contact@droptask.com

Jianlin Chen April 2, 2017

Hi Trevor, thank you for taking the time to try DropTask. We appreciate your thoughts and will take them into consideration :)

Grace H. Wang January 26, 2017

Love the app! The Kanban view took some getting used to after using the canvas view on the website app, but after a while, it became intuitive and second-nature. I do nearly all my planning on my smartphone, so having the android app has given my productivity a great boost.

Think Productivity January 30, 2017

Thanks Grace! So great to hear that it's having such a positive impact on your productivity. Be sure to drop us a line if you require any support :)

Klaudiusz Mozolewski February 22, 2017

It's works on my desktop but not on my smartphone. Authorisation error accrued?

Think Productivity February 27, 2017

Hi Klaudiusz, please would you be able to reach out to our technical team at support@droptask.com so we can resolve this for you?

Adrian Hill January 29, 2017

The stupid thing doesn't let me do anything. I try to create the 1st task and it tells me that I have the limit and that I must upgradecto pro to continue. Keep it - uninstall

Think Productivity January 30, 2017

Hi Adrian. I'm sorry to hear you feel this way. With the free version of DropTask you can create an unlimited number of tasks and categories within 1 project. Could I ask you to check that it's the project allowance that there is a limit on please? If you have any trouble please reach out to us at support@droptask.com and we'll be able to help.

Jeff Shamus January 8, 2017

Does not sync with Android As you can read in a lot of these reviews the app does not sync properly with Android. It will sync sometimes, but most of the time you will have to uninstall the app and reinstall it to get it to sync to your web app. This product has a lot of potential I hope the developers and marketing folks get their act together before they go out of business. It appears their support is very quick to respond to these reviews...maybe they should not be so quick and focus on getting the problems fixed!

Think Productivity January 26, 2017

Hi Jeff, I understand your concerns and thank you for your feedback. Our developer team are continually working on fixes and improvements to the Android app - if you are experiencing syncing issues please would you be able to email our support team at support@droptask.com so we can investigate what's happened?

Lateefah Patterson December 20, 2016

I try to use one project but it said I already use it which I haven't. You can only use it if you're upgrading. I like their platform idea but their advertising is misleading.

Think Productivity January 5, 2017

Hi Lateefah, thanks for your feedback. Within the free version of DropTask we create your first project for you when you sign in, but don't worry you can rename it to whatever you wish, and create as many tasks and categories to manage everything that you need to do. Upgrading to Business is optional, if you're looking to create multiple projects.

Darko Benšić November 22, 2016

Main functionality - sync with Andorid devices does not work. Site doesn't have normal support information. Very sad... This application is not useful for people who want to have status of project on web and mobile. Great idea but very, very bad implementation. Ex paid DropTask customer.

Think Productivity November 24, 2016

Hi Darko, thanks for taking the time to leave us feedback. I'm sorry to hear that you're experiencing sync issues on our Android app. Our team will be able to look into this immediately - please can you get in touch at support@droptask.com.

November 29, 2016

The free version is useless There's literally no point in installing the free version - you can't add a single task without being asked to upgrade. I just want to trial it, because so many task management apps are rubbish. I won't spend so much money unless I'm sure it actually works.

Think Productivity January 4, 2017

The free version of DropTask allows you to create an unlimited number of tasks and categories within 1 project, and is simple and effective with access to all of the features as found in the 'free' section of this table: www.droptask.com/features/. We would be more than happy to assist with a Business trial, please contact support@droptask.com.

Linda Gombert October 17, 2016

Meh. I needed productivity tool to keep track of projects from both desktop and smartphone. Desktop version was ok until they updated it a few months ago. Now the font is so tiny I can't read it unless I'm zoomed in on individual tasks (on a 24" monitor that I can see just fine while doing landscape designs). Kind of negates being able to see the big picture. Ended up removing it from the phone because it was almost impossible to read. Never was able to even determine if synching was a problem as mentioned by other reviewers. Sent feedback and got the standard "we'll look into this right away" response, but nothing seems to have changed in the months since. So, basically, not useful.

Think Productivity November 4, 2016

Hi Linda, thanks for taking the time to leave us feedback. We've recently released improvements to the visibility and legibility of text within the app. Please let us know if you would like to revisit DropTask as we would be more than happy to provide further support. You may contact us at support@droptask.com.

Brad Melendy September 14, 2016

Won't sync with web I liked the concept, created an account, put some tasks into the web interface, logged into the mobile app and there is zero content. Also no way to create a task from the mobile app. Makes the app of no value.

Think Productivity September 28, 2016

Hi Brad. Tasks can be created from within the mobile app - perhaps our support team could help you locate this feature. If you email support@droptask.com, our team will assist. The sync should also be working as long as the internet connection is secure. Here's a link to our HelpHub with more about DropTask: http://support.droptask.com/

Chris Greenslade October 7, 2016

Not ready to use Looks good but not easy to find anything that works.

Think Productivity November 4, 2016

Hi Chris. Oh no, I'm sorry to hear this. We're always looking to improve the usability of our app and aim to keep the navigation as simple as possible. If you'd be happy to discuss this with us further then please drop us a line at support@droptask.com. We'd appreciate any feedback that you have as we look to put enhancements in place.

Alex Aravandinos September 5, 2016

Almost there... The app is a lot better since the latest overhaul but it still has syncing issues which is very frustrating. I add a task on the app, I can see it on the web interface but it's nowhere to be found on the app... even after it refreshes its data / re-downloads the whole project...

Think Productivity September 28, 2016

Hi Alex, many thanks for taking the time to review us again - so pleased that you like our latest update. The syncing issues you've mentioned are totally unexpected - our technical team can look into resolving this right away. Can you send details to support@droptask.com please?

Cosmina Gherghe September 1, 2016

Amazing! As a designer, keeping track of what you do and carefully managing your time is essential, Droptask helped me leave boring lists behind and stay organised in a way that is visually stunning.

Think Productivity September 28, 2016

Thanks Cosmina!

William Weyer August 29, 2016

Seems like a good idea but it does not work The project button doesn't create a new project. I clicked on the help and support button and it took me to a page that links me to downloading the app. This is a waste of time

Think Productivity September 28, 2016

Hi William, thanks for taking the time to leave us feedback. I'm really sorry to hear that you've encountered some technical issues. We will look into this right away - what's the best email address to contact you on?

time to migrate else where latest app and web version has created too many issues with project management and it looks like time to upgrade to a better system

rohit nagia August 6, 2016

Was much better earlier. Was doing the trial version and quite liked it. But the latest update is very bad and hangs most of the time. Needs to be undone. Am looking for a better app now. !!

Think Productivity August 17, 2016

Hi Rohit, I'm really sorry to hear that you've experienced some issues - we'll take a look into this right away. Please email us details at support@droptask.com so we can investigate further.

Steve July 31, 2016

I used this app all day every day. Now, with the latest update, it sucks and I'm looking for something else.

Think Productivity August 17, 2016

Hi Steve, thanks for your thoughts. I'm sorry to see that you've been disappointed with our latest release. If you could send details to support@droptask.com I'm sure that a member of our expert team will be able to help to ensure you get the most from our service.

Christian Doan June 30, 2016

I really wanted to like it :( I was really looking forward to using the clever circle arrangement of tasks. But the app runs way too slow to be usable. It takes seconds just to change views. If they can make it fast and snappy like a to-do app should be, I'll certainly try it again.

Think Productivity August 17, 2016

Oh no, we can look into this ASAP Christian. Please can you send details about your device and the version of Android that your phone is running to support@droptask.com. A member of our technical team will investigate so that we can look to resolve this for you.

Fail An app that NEEDS a connection will fail inevitably. It did. It froze. I exit! It also lost the data. And its confusing

Think Productivity June 3, 2016

I am sorry to hear you experienced a problem with the app freezing. DropTask 2 is currently under development and will be released over the coming months, introducing a brand new app for Android.

Really nice visual Task View I like the app and the site, but tagging tasks does not work on my device. Note 4

Think Productivity March 11, 2016

Thanks for your feedback, it's wonderful to hear you really like the visuals :-) Sorry, to hear you're having problems with tagging tasks. If you continue to experience issues then please email us at support@droptask.com so we can look into for you.

Sai Krishnan December 22, 2015

Poor sync app - lost my entire planning in a jiffy I initially liked this app for its visual representation and offline options. But I had crested more than 100 tasks when I was offline over 3 days. Even though my mobile was online serval hours during the past 3 days this app did not sync the data - even though it is not great I am okay with it. But when I opened it when I was online all my planning went off in a jiffy and I am back to the 2 test tasks I created for testing this app. Very poor syncing. I don't see any option right now to get my work back

Think Productivity March 11, 2016

Oh dear, sorry to hear that you've experienced some unexpected behaviour Sai. We should certainly be able to help with this, can you reach out to us at support@droptask.com please?

August 18, 2015

Really wanted this to work-now it does Recent update solved my problems. Thanks to the Dev for informing me. This is a mighty powerful collaborative task/project manager. The graphical UI sets this app above all the others in terms of visual info and ease of use.

Think Productivity August 20, 2015

If you are still experiencing problems with the app, please contact support@droptask.com with further details so we can look into this for you. Thanks for the updated review, pleased to hear that this has been resolved now and everything is working as it should!

Karen Merrill May 10, 2015

One word, "Awesome!" If you easily get distracted and feel unproductive, this app may be a solution for you! The gmail integration is an added plus for this program! I began running my entire business with this app, this year and I feel so much more productive.

Noura Al-Hazzani April 5, 2015

Excellent Program So fun, and helps a lot.

Lisa Reeve March 9, 2015

Disappointing compared to chrome app I have the Chrome app and i love it. The android version seems to crash often and the view options are poor. Given the different screen environment, on android i would like a way to view all tasks in a project, or all tasks regardless of assignment. I hope the droptask team continues working on this app so i can improve my rating.

Think Productivity March 11, 2015

Hi Lisa, thanks for your feedback. The Android app is under development and updates will be made in the near future. If you continue to experience problems with it crashing then please let us know at support@droptask.com.
