Two things would make this app perfect: 1) When adding tasks, to have the ability to add to the bottom of the list instead of the top. 2) The ability to move tasks up and down the list. Excellent job. Thank you!

Good app concept. Couple of suggestions: I have experienced the mass deletion of tasks when clicking "Add New Task", esp. while another task is running and the board holds 6 or 7 items. Have also had the timer lock up when I try to edit a time while that item's time is running. It just won't restart unless I remove the app and then re-add it. And when a task is complete & hidden, it still shows up in the clipboard export CSV. How do you delete the tasks already marked as Done? Good little app though, seems to be useful for tracking my workday. Thanks!

Super dooper gadget. Works great, but I just saw that the list disappeared. However, I can't complain about a "freebe." I suppose that in conjunction with a spreadsheet that will store progress at the end of each session it will be fine as there will always be a backup.

Pretty fabulous. I've wanted something like this for several years and never got to writing it. Nice job. (if it integrated with JIRA tickets and time tracking it would be an epic tool)

How to adjust this gadget for linux? thank you.

Amanda  
Same here...whenever I try to add a new task, any other tasks I'd already added will disappear! Help!

Great Idea - would be exactly what I need, but you need to Work out the "bugs" 1) No check but deleting entire task with checked done 2) Copy entire list to csv (does not work). NOW it seems to work, but NOW when I add new task - the entire list is deleted - this is a worse bug!!

Doesnt seem to work under windows 7 :(

Very nice idea, and I was really enthusiastic about using it, until I added a task and the whole list got wiped out. Since that event the gadget started to behave erratically, for instance, when I check an open task, it doesn't mark it as a finished task, it just disappears the task!

Ack! I added one more task and the entire list disappeared - HUGE FLAW. Other cons: -can't change order -can't view deleted tasks Pro: useful to be able to time a single task that you're not worried about losing. Fundamentally, good concept but needs much better execution.

Love this but just had a problem. Is there a limit to the number of items you can keep on a list? For some reason I clicked several times on "Add New Task" and - poof - my entire list vanished. Any advice?

 
To those who keep requesting it, you can already change the time by double clicking on the time elapsed label.

I too love this gadget and like others, would like to be able to edit the time.

It would be nice to be able to recover old deleted tasks

it would be much better if it was integrated with google tasks

It's really great -- just what I've been looking for: a to-do list with a timer. BUT the only thing I didn't like is that I can't move the tasks -- change their position. This gadget would be perfect if it had this feature. And of course -- priority levels. But anyway, love this gadget. I think it's a must-have one.

I like it. Althought, I do not use timers, so it would be useful if there was an option for enable/disable timers so there is more space for tasks.

 
Great little gadget. Really love it. Would love to see it record start and stop times as well as elapsed time. Would also be great if it had a programable audio alarm so you could get a feel for how much time is passing.

Very nice gadget!! If I could make a small suggestion - it would be very nice to override the time. Sometime I forget to stop the tracker and then it would be nice to change the time.
