Octopus: Planner, Goal Tracker18.2.2 - App Store

Octopus is a daily planner, to-do list and goal tracker app that helps you organize daily tasks, plan your day, and track your goals in one place. Create task lists, set reminders, build habits, and turn big life goals into a clear daily schedule. With Octopus you plan your day with intention.

BOARDS FOR EVERY WAY YOU PLAN

* Share a task board with friends or your team and work on it together.

TWO-WAY SYNC WITH GOOGLE & ICLOUD CALENDARS

WHY PEOPLE STAY WITH OCTOPUS

Most planner apps are either too simple (a plain to-do list) or too complex (project management overkill). Octopus hits the sweet spot: powerful enough to manage goals, habits, and projects - simple enough to plan your entire day in two minutes. That's why people who start with Octopus keep planning with it months later.

PLAN YOUR DAY. TRACK YOUR GOALS. GET THINGS DONE.

Octopus combines a daily planner, task manager, goal tracker, and habit builder in one productivity app. Stop juggling separate to-do list apps and goal journals - plan, track, and achieve everything in a single space.
