Simple-Calendar VS tasks

My go to for those sort of app replacements are Simple Mobile Tools. https://www.simplemobiletools.com/

calender

Simple mobile tools shows its definitely possible [0]. Simple gallery pro has 110k reviews, for example.

Agreed here, though.

I would be wary of using their calendar app. It has had a long-standing bug in basic timezone / DST handling:

Most custom ROMs don't seem to use the AOSP dialer anyway. I've mostly seen forks with some nice features Google's dialer still lacks (called recording, for one).

AOSP hasn't been a useful Android distribution for years. Luckily, you can make it useful through third party apps like the Simple apps: https://www.simplemobiletools.com/

Simple Calendar - what it sounds like; supports sync

I'm curious, did you mean https://tasks.org/ or something else?

Kalender mit CalDav und der App "Tasks" auf Android

Tasks.org: Open-source To-Do Lists & Reminders (version 13.6): Fork of Astrid Tasks & To-Do List

tasks for Tasks.org mobile

I thought it was a great idea to find out how certain features are implemented in other people’s projects. I know two open-source apps that are similar to what I want to build: uhabits and tasks.org.

I think it really depends on what your definition of "productive" is.

Let me try and quantify it. I looked through my apps that I installed from F-Droid, then looked at their GitHub issues and picked one [0]. I bet I could implement that in less than a week with 0 Android development experience.

> Every Android version is basically a reboot in many parts of the framework, the device fragmentation is hardly any better than J2ME days, several features are only documented via samples or Google IO talks, Gradle plugins require rewrites between upgrades, and each Android Studio release is a box of surprises what quirks it has.

Does any of that really matter if you're hiring someone into an existing org? Doesn't Android have amazing backwards compatibility? I'm sure I have some dice app from 2012 that still runs. The company is probably targeting some version of Android and isn't changing to the latest one every time a new version is released.

Edit: and neither do some other features such as 'Filters'. I was aware that some of the features would not sync since that was mentioned in the tasks.org website. But I did not expect this to happen since the website specifically says that tags are synced with DecSync CC.

I just kept bringing up replacing Synology with Nextcloud because of the reminder sync issue and the superior web app. If you don't rely heavily on reminders then its not a huge deal. You can read more about this at https://github.com/tasks/tasks/issues/1802

I've been trying out a TON of GTD-related apps over the years and recently settled on tasks.org to complement Google Tasks. Honestly, this is an amazing app, but it lacks features that I really want: A Web interface and integration with other applications. Then a week ago, I moved to Todoist, and while it worked great and provided much of what I wanted, its free account limitations were apparent. Bummer, as I didn't want to pay what they ask for a premium account.
