As you know, Ukraine, where our entire team is from, is currently fighting against Russia for our freedom and democracy. This war has affected every aspect of our lives, but we continue to work and want to update you on the current situation.

In our blog we talk about how we are working during the war, how you can help us, and what are our future plans. 

We also invite you to discuss the new features for the desktop-version!

I am really happy to read that you try to continue to work on MLO under the depressing circumstances in your country.
All the best for the team and of course for all Ukrainian people!

Regarding the V6 feature feedback, I have a clear favorite: The separate Notes window.
If you are looking for a beta tester or more detailed wishes regarding this feature I will be happy to assist.

Really glad you are all safe. Desperately sorry to see your homes and communities destroyed. Hoping for peace as soon as possible.

Dear MLO Team

Just a week ago I realized, that MLO is developed by an Ukrainian team.

First I want to thank you for this exceptional great tool, which I use on Android and Windows for about six years now.
Since the early nineties I tested and used so many task managers, organizers and project planing tools, I couldn't put a number on them. Then I discovered MLO, which was a revelation somehow.

I always knew, it's possible to develop a software like MLO, unifying all the features one needs, but scattered over hundreds of apps. Sometimes I was pretty close to start such a project myself *kidding*. Anyway, now this wasn't necessary anymore, thanks to you guys.

MLO is the best, most versatile tool of this kind! And since the first day of using it, I'm totally convinced by your work.

It's a bit difficult to change the subject at this point, but truly I hope that you, Alyona, Andrey and the whole team behind MLO, is healthy and save ... at least as far as it's possible in a such crazy and horrible situation. It's just utter madness and so hard to believe, a war in Europe is going on again.

I know that people all around the world are thinking of the Ukrainian people and their bravery. And we all look forward to the day Ukraine is free again. I'm positive this day will come ... hopefully very soon!

I also hope the governments everywhere will do everything possible to help ... still more than they do now.

All the best thoughts and wishes!

COMPLETELY AGREE, with all of this!  (I mean, except only the "kidding" note, because as I've told Andrey before, I really DID write my own similar outliner-based task-list app in 2004/2005, before finding MLO in 2007!)

And yes, I think Silvan expresses very well what many of us are feeling, that these events are so shocking and every day so many of us around the world are all hoping and worrying that the whole team behind MLO is staying healthy and as safe as possible.

Thank you also, Andrey and MLO team, for the blog-post update on everything going on there.

-John

Please start new topic with proper subject and I have input on that when you do. But it does not belong in this thread, which is the MLO team showing they have not stopped working because of the war. They are not giving up!

What a trip.  I didn't even know you guys were based in Ukraine.  The Whole World supports you, my friends.  Stay strong and keep being awesome!

God bless and keep you all safe until someday we can have a conference in kharkiv.  As for features I would like to see added to the Windows version of MLO,. I would love to see a separate window for events and appointments displayed as a calendar that could stay on top in the All Tasks and Due Next 7 Days views.  This would really help with setting due dates for tasks related to upcoming events.  Keep up the great work!  I have toyed with other task managers.  MLO is on a league of it's own.

I agree with you that integrating calendars would be a worthy release, implemented exactly as you say.  Phase I might be a calendar viewer.  Phase II would be the ability to add new appointments, including recurring ones.

 

Take Care,

I will look forward to seeing a calendar window that can bet set to stay on top of the workspace when updating or adding tasks.  Maybe a potential start point would be converting tasks that have times attached automatically onto cake dar entries.  Just a thought.  Keep up the great work.  Best time and task manager available.
