HQ: To Do
“What’s the point of a productivity app, if it keeps you from
being productive?”
HQ was uniquely designed to help you spend less time managing your tasks and projects, and more time actually getting them done! Quickly manage everything from simple task lists (like groceries, to-dos, checklists, etc.) to larger, time-sensitive projects. Set deadlines, estimate and track time, color-code and filter YOUR data to suit YOUR needs using our trimmed down, lightning-fast and stylishly simple UI.
> Delightfully different.
We designed this app from the ground-up to be as pleasant to look at as it is useful. HQ has a visual style all its own, and doesn’t simply reuse the same set of standard visual components that most apps use.
> Built for speed.
Optimized to provide you with the speediest method to keep your life organized. Using our dead-simple UI and shallow structure, you’ll never be more than a tap or swipe away from where you want to be. There is absolutely ZERO bulk, heft, or unnecessary bells & whistles to keep you from achieving maximum productivity bliss!
> Thumb friendly.
Imagine an app where you can comfortably perform most tasks using only your thumb. HQ is that app. We made sure to use the entirety of the screen real-estate to maximize the size of EVERY tap-able, swipe-able and otherwise interactive part of the app. If we couldn’t pull it off with one hand, while sauntering down the street with a coffee in the other, we made it bigger, or we cut it. If we couldn’t pull it off with one hand, while sauntering down the street with a coffee in the other, we made it bigger, or we cut it.
Feature-light? More like, feature-right.
HQ features everything needed to manage and organize large projects and lists, but stops short of the “feature overkill” associated with the majority of productivity apps. Stay organized by separating your heftier “projects” from your day-to-day “lists.” Assign priorities and due dates. Color-code projects and lists to suit YOUR taste.
