Review tasks from notes

Edit titles, set start/end dates, remove any you don't need, or add more. Sort by date once you've set them, then confirm to add to the schedule.

Help

Look for a small "?" next to a field for a quick explanation. For anything broader, here's a start:

What's the difference between "Task jotting" and "Notes / ideas"?

Task jotting is a disposable scratchpad — write down tasks there, click "Build as task list?", and it clears itself. Notes / ideas is for anything else (decisions, links, general thoughts) and is never cleared automatically.

What does a project's "Manager" mean, and how's that different from a task's assignee?

The manager has full control over the project's tasks — editing titles/dates/assignees, adding or deleting tasks. A task's own assignee(s) can only update that one task's status, nothing else, unless they're also the manager.

What does "Coverage per unit" mean when adding a material?

How much area one unit of the material covers (e.g. one gallon of paint, one box of tile) — printed on the specific product's own packaging, since it varies by brand. The app can't guess this for you.

What's the difference between "Estimate" and "Actual" for costs?

Estimate is planning-stage — what you expect to spend. Actual is what you've really purchased/paid. The Costs tab totals both separately and shows the variance between them.

How is a project's "Progress" percentage worked out?

Each task counts for a fraction of the total: "done" counts fully, "in progress" counts as half, everything else counts as none. The percentage is that sum divided by the total number of tasks.

How do I report a bug, suggest something, or invite a teammate?

Use the "Feedback" tab up top for bugs/suggestions/praise. To invite someone to your team, go to People — "Invite a teammate" for your own team, or ask the admin for a signup link if you're looking to start your own team.

New property

Can't do that

New project

Assign any number of people to this task.

New material type

Estimate material — just the material and how much you'll need. Cost, vendor, and links get added later in the Costs tab.

No surface set yet.

Edit material

Total: $0.00

Surface area

Measure the area you need to cover. Most surfaces are simple rectangles — a wall is just length × height. Add one row per wall/ceiling and the app sums them.
