WeDo is a new task application with a very social side

Reminders, Google Keep, Todoist, Wunderlist, Any.do, Clear and many others: the huge list when it comes to applications dedicated to task organization.

Is there room for one more?


WeDo app icon: Your second brain.

Personnel responsible for WeDo he believes so, and for a very simple reason. The new app has a more social footprint than its competitors, making it easier than ever to invite people who are in or out of the app, to join lists, collaborate on tasks and chat in the integrated chat. I have been testing WeDo for the past few weeks and now I come to everyone's aid to answer a question that doesn’t want to shut up.

at first glance, the (good) WeDo design is printed: the app finds a good balance, without being visually heavy and full of options, like Wunderlist, but also moving away from the extreme minimalism (expense of resources) of Clear, for example . The primarily white and sparse interface has a welcome vibe, but it still presents all the (many) features offered.

One of WeDo's main concepts is that of Tribes (Tribes), that is, groups to which people can be invited (either inside the app or outside, from their contact list, via SMS or email) and organize, delegate and complete tasks together. The user can have an unlimited number of Tribes and each of them can have an unlimited number of users just your good sense of knowing how far this will be manageable will therefore govern your use of the app.

The bottom three tabs share WeDo on their main screens. In the first one, Home, the user finds all his notifications within a certain Tribe. In Tasks the tasks themselves appear, also separated by Tribes. The third tab, Chat, self-explanatory, presenting the chats within each of the Tribes (can be several, with different members in each).

I was a little surprised that the application is totally separated by such Tribes, in the sense that their tasks, notifications and chats do not mix, being necessary to select each one of them to verify these things. It would be nice to have a way to at least view all of your pending tasks, regardless of Tribe where she is.

Regarding the art of organizing and completing your tasks, WeDo fulfills your purpose with pleasure, presenting all the necessary resources to do it in the simplest possible way. It is possible to add reminders, due dates, sub-tasks, delegate responsibilities, add notes and create entire lists of tasks, private or public, for everyone to collaborate. At this point, WeDo is a more beautiful version, but similar in features, of Wunderlist.

In my tests, the application presented some operational problems, but this part is understandable, since WeDo is still in beta stage, the developers hope that “Founding users” (the name given to those who still join in this phase) give feedback reporting the problems encountered and suggestions for the app to improve more and more until it is mature enough to be released to the general public.

Want an invitation?

For now WeDo is running on an invitation system, but, as always, read the has its advantages: the guys provided us with a code so that the first 1,000 of you, our readers, if they so wish, have immediate access to the application and also become “Founding users”!

To do so, simply download the application, available for free on the App Store for iPhones / iPods touch, and, when creating an account, enter the code MM1000. That's cool, isn't it? I hope you there.
