An application that stands out as a LIFESTYLE ACTIVITY REMINDER.

It provides a number of CALENDAR and TODO list (scheduled, with date/time) functions.

Among other parameters, events are assigned IMPORTANCE – which, internally, is translated into URGENCY. This, in turn, is presented to the user by heat-map color schemes (brighter colors for higher urgency).


=== iOS 8 status ===

- the app is fully tested on iOS 8 (should be obvious, but still worth noting)

- work on its further adaptation for iOS 8 is in progress


=== Detailed description ===

Algorithm of the application, and presentation of events, are based on integration of three features:

1. events are arranged in one single hierarchical (groups, three levels) list view

2. the events (and/or groups in their parent views) are ordered by due date

3. URGENCY of events (and/or event groups) is represented by COLORS which are adjusted based on IMPORTANCE of every event – relative to its progress in time (configured per event)

This concept provides a simple method to assess status of an event in a quick and straightforward way.

To make things even more interesting, events can be organized in a hierarchical structure of groups.

A group typically represents multiple events – possibly events of the same category. Think anniversaries as a typical example – nicely “hidden away” in a group (so the parent view is not cluttered unnecessarily), yet not out of sight – and therefore impossible to be missed.

TODO tasks can be scheduled (awaiting completion/acknowledgement), then – after the acknowledgement – re-scheduled automatically.

Repeat count can be configured for any event type, expired events can be reused easily.
