Hi! I noticed a few things that should be simple to add and would be nice.

1. List names get cut off if they are too long, and the only way to view the full name is to go into the renaming menu.

2. It would be very nice to be able to use the crank to scroll through lists instead of just the D-pad.

3. It would be nice to either rename or delete the Inbox list.

4. It seems like the sound for checking and unchecking a ToDo item should be swapped.

The app is very nice and I like it a lot! These would just be some nice quality of life changes, but by no means do you have to add them. Thank you for making this!

Hey, Thank you for your feedback. I’ll look at them, but right now, I have a quick tip for 3. As you probably noticed, this app is strongly opinionated, and that’s why based on GTD (and Things app) inbox list is called Inbox, so I’m not planning to add an option to change that in UI. But you can easily do that in data mode. Connect your playdate in data mode, head to data/com.hydrasoftworks.pocketplanner directory, and open todos/data.json in a code editor like VS Code or Notepad++. You will find the line "name":"Inbox",. You can change Inbox to something different there.

Thanks! I hadn't heard of GTD, and looking into it is swaying me towards leaving the Inbox as is and trying it out haha

In that case, I’m strongly recommending https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1633.Getting_Things_Done for you. :) Speaking about productivity, this may be the most important book that I read (and I like productivity books). It’s not mindblowing, but I’ve been using GTD with https://culturedcode.com/things/ for many years, all thanks to reading David Allen’s book 15 years ago.
