I’m looking to replace my physical notebook daily todo lists (I know there’s something unique about physically checking tasks out on a notebook, but sometimes is not so practical so I want a good digital alternative). Is there an app out there that is really up to the challenge?

My flow is as follows:

For each day I write the date and the tasks I really want to tackle that day.

I also have a “week” box at the side with things I really want to tackle that week but don’t have a fixed day yet.

When on a given day I can’t get to a task I will put a down arrow next to it to signal it should go on the next day, then on the next day I re-write it (this would be nicely automated in an app).

Similar happens with “this week’s” tasks.

I’ve been using Apple notes for a while when my physical notebook is not at hand, is fine for the most part but not ideal.

The features that’d make an app the perfect candidate are:

1. You can with one click start writing the tasks for TODAY 2. Same as the above for the tasks of the week 3. Tasks not done are automatically carried over to the next day/week, with a label showing how many times it’s been delayed 4. Tasks can be dragged and dropped between today and this week 5. Done tasks can be hidden or showed with a label showing when they were marked as done

Let me know if you know of an app that has these features, if you’d be interested in building such an app, or if you’d be interested in using such an app.

Our small team is quickly outgrowing Trello boards, so I'm looking for good options for software project management tools.

In the past I used to love PivotalTracker, but it seems to be a bit outdated and lacking some features, like the ability to have custom statuses, as I'd like to have statuses like: "In staging", "Tested in staging", "deployed to production" (interested to hear how you approach this steps).

ClickUp and Clubhouse look like the best candidates from what I've evaluated so far, and they both have the added value of being flexible enough that could be used to manage the other company projects outside of development.

I'd rather don't got with Jira as it (in my experience) can be slow, and feels like overloaded for a small team.

What software do you use for managing your software projects? how happy are you with it?
