Intuit Weaves Together Life's To-Do's
Free App for iPhone and iPod Touch Allows Consumers, Small Businesses
to Manage All Their Projects in One Place
MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
Weave,
a free application for iPhone and iPod touch that helps people manage
personal and business tasks from the palm of their hand, is available on
the App Store.
The 4.5-star rated app from Intuit Inc.
(Nasdaq: INTU) goes beyond merely managing to-do lists. Weave works
seamlessly across iPhone and iPod touch, giving hundreds of thousands of
users in more than 100 countries a better way to track life's daily
projects. It also includes sharing features that enable easy
collaboration with other people on a project and up-to-date information
wherever they need it. With Weave, users can:
-
Create to-do's with optional notes, due dates and alerts.
-
Manage activities with reminders and high-priority indicators.
-
Share projects and tasks with other Weave users, and allow anyone to
make edits and update progress.
-
Send email updates directly to non-Weave users to keep them posted on
the progress of a project.
-
Track income and expenses in multiple currencies, along with time
spent on any given activity.
The easy-to-use app helps anyone who wants a central hub to stay
organized—from small business owners who want to monitor workplace
activities, to parents who want to stay on top of family events and
tasks.
"It's not surprising that so many people around the world use Weave,
given we all have tasks in our lives that we could do a better job of
managing," said Dan Wernikoff, senior vice president and general manager
of Intuit's Financial Management Solutions Division. "Juggling work and
personal commitments is difficult, so we designed this intuitive and
beautiful application to simplify the business of life."
Works the Way You Need It
Weave's built-in project progress indicator helps Jillian Knox, owner of
Etsy store Joules Jewels
Vintage, allot her time throughout the day.
"Weave is my personal assistant," Knox said. "I wake up to the alerts
about what I have on the books for the day, receive notifications about
the to-do's that others have already completed for me and keep track of
my expenses and time spent at trade shows, which eliminates hassle at
tax time. It saves me a lot of time because I can check things off in
the car between tasks."
Artist and father, Kevin Clarke relies on Weave to help him focus on the
things that matter most to him — his business, Bug
Under Glass, and his family.
"Weave allows me to tackle my daily to-do's in a fun and easy way.
Whether it's reminding me to pick up diapers or monitor important
deadlines for the events I attend, it helps me stay organized and get
things done," said Clarke. "I also like that my wife and I can track
chores together with the sharing feature."
Serial entrepreneur and crafter Even Howard uses Weave to manage
projects for two small businesses in addition to her Etsy store, Nadene,
and as a result, is finally able to ‘unplug' after work.
"Nothing beats having the to-do's for all my projects, from all my
businesses, integrated into one clean, simple format," Howard said. "As
a small business owner, being able to let go of work is a huge challenge
and this app lets you do that. I can write down the millions of tasks
floating around in my head, rest assured that it's on my schedule, and
move on!"

Weave is available for free from the App
