Onplana Tasks for Windows
Microsoft Store or download
Your Onplana work, in the system tray.
Lives in the system tray. Add a task from any app with Ctrl+Shift+Space, hear the moment an agent needs you, and keep working offline.
Windows 10 (1809) or later, 64-bit. Free.
What it looks like
Captured from a build of Onplana Tasks for Windows. The title bar is the one the app draws itself.
- Global quick-add hotkey
- Agent and reminder notifications
- Offline changes sync when you reconnect
- Open an .mpp, .xer, XML or Excel file and see its tasks
Add a task without leaving what you are doing
Ctrl+Shift+Space from any application opens quick-add. Type the task the way you would say it, press enter, and carry on. The cost of capturing something is low enough that you actually do it rather than deciding to remember it.
Know when an agent needs you
When an agent finishes something for review, or asks a question, a notification tells you at the moment it happens rather than the next time you open the web app. The tray icon carries your open count so a glance is enough.
Keep working with no connection
Completing, reopening, snoozing and re-prioritising all work offline and sync when you reconnect, so a train or a flaky hotel network does not stop you clearing your list.
Bring someone in without leaving the app
If you own or manage a project, invite people to it from the app and give them a task. Someone already in your workspace gets it at once; someone new joins as a guest, and the task moves to them when they accept.
Questions
Can I use it without an Onplana account?
Yes. Choose Use without an account on the first screen and your tasks stay on this computer. Sign in when you want your agents, projects and team, and the app offers to move those tasks into Onplana.
Does it start with Windows?
It can. The app runs in the tray rather than the taskbar, so it stays out of the way, and you choose in its settings whether it launches at sign-in.
Does it cost anything?
No. Every Onplana Tasks companion is free and included with every plan, including the free plan. It is a companion to your Onplana account, and you can try it without one: your tasks stay on the device until you sign in.
Do I need it to use Onplana?
No. Everything it does, the web app does. The companions exist so the work you have been assigned is one click, one keystroke or one swipe away instead of a tab you have to go and find.
Will my work sync?
Yes. It is the same account and the same data, so a task you complete in a companion is complete everywhere, and a task assigned to you in the web app appears here.
The rest of the family
Same account, same work, wherever you are. Every one is free.
