Benjamin – Task Manager and Calendar Inspired by Benjamin Franklin for iPhone App Reviews

Works well, helps a lot if following the Franklin Covey routine. Would be a lot better if it supported badges for tasks due today though.

Great app for those that are familiar with the old Franklin Covey software. So far, very happy with this app but would like to see the following: - badge support to show how many tasks are due today - cloud support so that I can access my tasks from both my iPhone and iPad - easier way to go from todays tasks to the next day (eg swipe screen to move ahead a day) Would give 5 stars if supported badges.

I would also like to see an easier way to move ahead to the next days tasks for review purposes. Not fussed about badge support but would like to see cloud access for sharing across devices. Excellent way of continuing to use the Covey methods.

Great app. Very in keeping with the Franklin Covey system. Would like to be able to more easily get to future daily tasks with a swipe. Would also like to see all tasks on screen at once. Also there is no easy way to see on which days you keep notes. An index page for that would be nice.

A really good app, I use it daily. In the spirit of the Franklin method, could you add a weekly view for project tasks? Ideally, could you add a monthly view of project tasks, by project Thanks so much

There are way more user friendly and convenient apps for this price

Does not support ios 9, 10

Asks for an additional 1.99/mo to sync. Not up to date with retina UI.

I was so thrilled to see this app. I can finally follow 7 Habits planning digitally! Like others there are a few additional paper planner additions/tweeks here and there that would be nice. Hopefully it is still a work in progress and will get updated. I would like to see a toggle to hide completed tasks in the Project folders.

Love the application

This app has pretty hood potential, but apps like todoist and evernote are walking away from Benjamin. Cmon...no updates since 2014...seriously??? Dont the developers care about the app? No web or pc versions forces you to go through hoops to cut and paste links and other things found on out PCs. Give us an update that gives us a web version or even a pc version and it will be 5 stars. I have stopped using benjamin and will use todoist and evernote until benjamin delivers #1. an update; #2 an update that makes the product competitive. I will hang on to the sync and the app until end of July. No update by then..."see ya later!"

This is hands down the best Franklin Covey inspired tool !!! Hands down it is the best and worth much more then they charge

Ive used the Franklin for years and this is the new generation of being prepared.

Takes a bit to figure out the navigation, but menus are logically arranged so it didnt take too long before I was using it full time for my planning and task management purposes. And being able to sort tasks not only in Active Tasks vs the Master Task List, but then being able to manage active tasks into priority groupings (A,B,C), as well as within each grouping (what I call my work order), is incredibly helpful (just like the original Franklin planner). If youre accustomed to the physical Franklin planning system, this as close of an app as youre gonna find. I am glad I took the purchase risk; it has been a great tool to help me plan, stay focused, and stay on-task.

Loved the paper version and so glad to have found the app! Agree with some of the other suggestions for updates. I would like to be able to rank the tasks in a project file. Using it daily - very helpful!

This is awesome but there needs to be a notification option to remind you of a task or event. For some an e-mail daily of the task and events due that day would work as well.

Would like to see next appointments from locked screen. Press home key 3-4 times to display upcoming schedule.

I was looking for an electronic means of using the A1 priority system, and this app does an excellent job. It took me a couple days to work out the best process to quickly enter and manage tasks, but a few weeks in Im up and running smoothly.

Almost as good Franklin/Covey paper version. I wish I could use it with a tablet and a laptop!! Good app nonetheless.

I am using this app on my iPhone and syncing with my iPad for backup. I have been using a prioritizing system like this with a paper planner for nearly 30 years, and this app is a great adaptation to mobile. It is stable and reliable, and the developer regularly adds thoughtful features.
