Setting up tasks is easily done and booked down to its bare essence which is nice. However, I think not being able to re-order tasks is a big hole in the feature set. It’s funny to say but adding that one feature might actually make me consider this as my go to to-do app.

Pros: - Good color theme - Minimalistic - Fast - iCloud sync Cons: - Animation is not very fluid - Maybe too minimalistic (more options) - "Syncing to iCloud" notification everytime it changes screen is rather annoying All in all, some improvements and potentially a great app!

I love this app. The only thing that is frustrating is that the syncing between iPhone and iPad isn’t happening (could be user error but I don’t know yet so it still gets 5 stars). What I love: 1. Manual Input: At first I was bothered that I couldn’t duplicate tasked across multiple days but what I have found is that it creates a simple filter for things that add value to you. If you care about something enough to type it out and spend five seconds on it, it should be in the app, if not it is probably not worth the energy. Things I would do without a list, i don’t input because it is not needed. This leads me to list non-standard tasks that are not habitual which is what I need. 2. No sort feature: other than getting stuff done. I love that the way this app functions best is by simply crossing stuff off your list. The more that happens the better this becomes. It built to look backwards but to drive action today. 3. Basic: This app is as close to a pad of paper as possible on a phone. You can barely change anything (color) but the app will stay true to itself. 4. Space Constraints: Related to sorting, I enjoy that the app doesn’t reformat based on the number of tasks. If you have a lot you won’t be able to see them, hence encouraging the doing of tasks not just writing them down. Summary: I love what this app doesn’t bring to the table. It isn’t Asana or Trello (great apps with great/different purpose) with boards and Gantt charts. This app is upper and it is simple, it is beautiful, and it is just right for what it wants to be, minus syncing.

This app is gorgeous, simple and intuitive. I could only be more pleased if there were a way to set repeating tasks and if the tasks are could be re-ordered once entered. That said, Upper is just a joy to look at and use, and it's the tools that actually get used that do us the most good.
