We've done a lot of upgrades to the app and have decided to release it for free for anyone to use.

Please see the video at the Playstore link for a quick overview.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.personizer…

It is a simple way to sort personal tasks into a more user friendly format, especially good for those who are naturally disorganized in life, or those who are busy dealing with other people.

This is a new style of personal organizer as it leverages the mobile phone data to provide personalized categories from your contacts list , which are used as labels to group tasks by. Similar to how labelling emails into folders works, but with Contacts people as the labels means you can visually see the tasks category from the contacts photo, and also jump to access the contact profile during the process of completing a task, and then optionally let the other person know when you've done it.

All your data is stored privately on the phone and no one but you can see it.
Playstore link has full text description + photos.

We're based in Brisbane and always keen for feedback, especially to make it easier to use. Appreciate any reviews or likes aswell, thanks.

  Thanks OP. If you don't mind me asking, what advantage it has compared to android's built-in google calendar?
  Because I have been using it as my todo-type application.

    Yes, also what's the comparison of this with google keep for notes and to do checklist too

      The main difference is Google keep allows you to make custom categories and does not provide a way to categorize tasks by person, like Personizer does. Personizer is focused on tasks, but it can also be used like a dynamic Rolodex - notes for contacts.

      Google keep is cloud enabled (multi device). Where as personizer is not currently web based,it is solely phone device based, which means you dont even need an internet connection to maintain personal organization. If there is enough user demand we'll offer a cloud system including a web login and multi device access.

      The checklists are only 1st level for now, but we'd like to add subtask checklists in future, for example subtasks for shopping list. Myself I use it for shopping list, just keep the one task open, and then edit the items in the long notes section, and have that task "Starred" which means it always shows at the top of the General section.

      thanks for the interest.

    The app wont replace the existing calendar, it uses the default phone calendar to post tasks into an event. That's done in the Edit task window, turn on the Calendar event.

    For example you might have a task;
    Call and make a meeting with Carl.
    Then you can convert that to a calendar event. Post it to the calendar, edit the event name to say "Meeting with carl", then press back to go back into Personizer, press save on the task, and now the calendar event is linked to the task. And personizer will know you have a meeting coming up. The app can't read from the calendar, but if it posts to it then it knows about the event. And can then show it as part of your schedule in the Table view. And that task will have a calendar icon to show it is linked to the calendar event.

    So if you use it to make all your calendar events then you will always know what your schedule is. But there's also a quick link from the app to launch default calendar and check on it that way aswell.

    Let me know if any further questions or comments.

    Ok. But the app only stores your data securely in a local phone database so chances of getting hacked is only via your phone nothing on the cloud, even we can't see your tasks it's all local.

  Genuine question:
  As it is now free, what's in it for you? Our personal data? Similar to most of Google and Hotmail services?

    Usually more downloads -> more visibility -> more downloads of paid version later

    Right now, nothing is in it for us it's just a labour of love. The person centric nature of it is a better method philosophically and psychologically but it requires to look at personal organization through the lens of task completion by way of the people involved (accountable to or responsible for) which is different to the more traditional objective based outcomes centered on time and task, which ignores the very important who. The who provides the motivators; if I do 'this' it will affect 'them' and 'me'. The time and the objective are important but not as important as the who, that's why they are included in there.
    So app's workflow now becomes; Who -> What -> when.

    Where as a calendar is; When -> What /Who.
    And a traditional todo is; What-> When/who.

    But time is a variable cog and doesnt provide a center reference, and a human initiated task is never an isolated object in space, a task is always connected to a person.

    Hopefully it will become a popular organization system and that would then enable us to add new features such as;
    repeatable tasks
    cloud storage/backup
    subtasks checklists.
    custom category tabs (e.g. social life, work, family).

    and offer a subscription service so the data is accessible through any device.

    We cant see your data at all , its only on your phone.
