DeskPlan : Get your schedule in order by creating tasks and appointments on the long run and make them active in custom days with this portable app
There are an abundance of activities you need to keep track of on a daily basis, which might make you forget about some personal appointments. On the bright side of things, having to deal with a computer has its advantages, in the sense that you can rely on specialized applications like DeskPlan to create a list of tasks to track.
Advantages of a portable app
A cool thing, for starters, is that you can see what the application is all about from the moment it reaches your computer, because you’re not taken through a setup process to make it work. As such, you can even deploy it on a USB flash drive to have all your tasks with you, while keeping the health status of the target PC intact.You’re first asked for a directory to save all your data, so choose carefully, especially if you plan on using the application on the go. There aren’t any default tasks created, but it doesn’t take much time and effort to fill in required values for time, or the message to deliver. A calendar is also there to help set tasks on the long run.
Set up tasks for different days
There’s the possibility to have only particular days targeted for your events. This means that most tasks you create are recursive, but this is only if you choose to activate them in weekdays inside the creation process. As mentioned, you need to also set the date, as well as the exact time, with a text message to show up on trigger.Only tasks in the current day are displayed in the window. However, there is a day selection option to view future, or past activities. Alarms are active by default, but this can easily be toggled from the window, or the tray icon menu, in which the application resides when not directly used.
A few last words
Taking everything into consideration, we can state that DeskPlan is a straightforward tool you can use to set up an abundance of alarms for events, even on the long run. Even if it can feel a little rough around the edges, it’s worth your while thanks to portability, and overall ease of use.
