Thank you for the idea.
QuickPlan is being enhanced continuously, we have released more than 30 versions in the last years.
iOS is opening more and more, and to keep QuickPlan focusing on the project schedule, would you help to check if you can manage the information of the contacts in a contact app, I think it is not very complicated to search the contact when needed.
We have many features in our willing list, and you may find the price of the QuickPlan app is super lower ( less than 1/5 of the same kind with at/above the acceptable level of quality). Right now the non-core features are not prioritized.

Pencil on iPad not perfect
Apple Pencil (new version) on newest iPad Pro 11 is not functional in a number of functions. Maybe it would be good to test it. Like: collapsing or expanding groups on the triangle does not work.

En français...
Le lundi est le premier jour de la semaine
Le calcul du coût du travail devrait aussi pouvoir se faire à la journée.
Est-il possible de lié au calendrier? Ou d’inclure les jours fériés? Les vacances des ressources? Les coûts d’investissements? Il serait aussi intéressant de pouvoir inclure des livrables, des risques... etc...1 voteAdminMobilinked

Thank you for your ideas. Would you please help to check following my comments?
- Project calendar
The work, effort, and cost are calculated by the working-days. https://quickplan.app/documents/ios/user-manual/task-maintenance/task-fieldsTo control which day is the working day, please check https://quickplan.app/documents/ios/user-manual/project-properties/calendar
- Delivery and Risks
QuickPlan is the app for the project schedule that is not the only document for a project. I’d like to suggest you manage the deliveries and risks using other tools (in other documents)Philip

Adding Attachments to Tasks
It would be really useful to be able to add attachments to tasks, either Word, Excel, Pages, Powerpoint, Images etc

Thank you for the idea.
There are 3 URL columns (https://quickplan.app/documents/ios/user-manual/task-maintenance/task-fields), we can use it to link a task with a URL. For example, we can store a file on Dropbox and create a URL to the file on the dropbox. If you are using QuickPlan on the Mac, you can also link the task with a file.
Attaching files in the project schedule will cause performance problems as the project file will be very big.

IOS Magic Keyboard Gestures (Mousepad)
It would be great to take advantage of the magic keyboard mousepad with basic gestures
e.g. change task hierarchy with two fingers to the right or left
This magic keyboard really change the way to use the app
So I’m wondering if you have something in mid about this topic
Thanks in advance

The column titles can be edited and renamed. Unfortunately when it comes to printing or generating pdfs, it defaults back
The renaming should be carried through to be correct in the printing and exporting.

Ability to add additional Flags
I would like to be able to add additional flags for instance I may want one called C and pick three colors the lettering helps tag what it is tied too.
In the case above —- for simplicity sake it is tied to a regulatory item related to Controls on a project.

Export/Print Critical Path
There needs to be an ability to export / print the critical path tree.
This is a key aspect of demonstrating the logic to clients.The only alternative at the moment is to make a copy of the programme then manually change the colours to match the diagram the programme creates. This is laborious and a waste of time since Quickplan already does the work.
Please add the ability to print the Critical Path version.1 voteAdminMobilinked

The feature is available now for the iPad version, would you please help to check the details at https://youtu.be/N1X1h6G8RvA ?
For the macOS version, as this feature is not available, I’d like suggest if you can sync the project to iPad and then to export it to PDF for your needs?

Thank you for the idea.
The “task” in the calendar and a project schedule are NOT the same concepts.
My understanding is that your purpose is to maintain tasks in the QuickPlan app and the Calendar app, and the tasks will be sync.
But the “task” concepts are NOT the same; actually, the data in the task are not the same. Sync will lose data, especially the most important parent-child relationship.
Would you please help to check an article at https://quickplan.app/questions/general/project-schedule?

Minor customization in preferences
Would be great to have the option to disable the animated top menu (for faster shuffling things up and down); really, all animations; to default to opening a new task when it’s created, and with a blank title for more rapid entry.
1 voteThank you for the idea.
I think you are using QuickPlan on the iPhone, and want to disable the menu animation on the top. We are considering if possible to move the menu to the bottom and make it be visible always – a very big change.

Resource vs task table in excel export
A view I am missing is to be able to see which resource at the top is needed for each task on the left. There would be one column per resource and the percentage would be at the intersection of the row and column. Total resource would be provided for each column and row. There is no timeline.
1 voteThank you for the idea.
The exported excel file contains 3 sheets, the resource allocation report is one of the three.
I am afraid I did not get your point, would you please help to share more details?
And we have a free Mac app at https://quickplan.app/tools for resource reporting, it may be what you are looking for.

Data Entry
Most project starts with data generated from a spreadsheet, to this end, there should be an option to import information into the application from a a CSV formatted file. Otherwise too much time is spend with data entry that is time consuming and boring.....This option should be an essential feature inherent within the application.
1 voteThank you for the idea.
QuickPlan supports import from MS Excel file, would you please help to check the details at https://quickplan.app/documents/ios/user-manual/integrations/excel ?

Task Predecessor
Task linkages are limited and need to allow typical relationship for undertaking Start-to-Start, Finish-to-Start types etc. relationships. Otherwise the application can’t be used for serious implementation which is a shame....

D-day date range
Is it possible to change the calendar to a D day basis. In other words, task 1 Stanton on D day and lasts up to D+7 (seven days). Please advise.
1 voteThanks for the idea.
Our understanding is that:
- In the beginning, you want the FIRST day of the project NOT be specified
- When needed, you can define the project’s first day to make the project real.QuickPlan supports to change the project start date for your needs:
- Please start to plan and assign the task to a specific date you want
- Change the project start date when needed (by tapping the project name on the toolbar)Best Regards,

Would you please help to check following my comment?
- Contact Manager
A:
QuickPlan supports to import from iOS / macOS contacts (https://quickplan.app/documents/mac/user-manual/project-properties/members)- Timer & Expense Tracking
A:
I think our free app may be what you are looking for, at https://quickplan.app/tools/resource-report. If you are using the app on the iPad, please export the project to an Excel file, and you will find the resource and cost report.- Customization
A:
Our design purpose is to help the users do rightly. We spent much more effort to add the limitation for the design purpose (we have more articles talking about it on the website) than implementing it without limitation.Best Regards,
Philip
