Tasko!

hello again friends! it's been a few months since my last post, and a lot has happened in that time, i quit my job and started working on this new project i'm about to show you, its called Tasko ! a personal tasks manager for Android :)

so, the idea in general is to create personal tasks, set how much time you would like to work on each one, for example: 1 hour of guitar practice a day, or 2 hours of yoga every week. then, when starting to work on your task, you click a play button and the app starts counting time.
the tasks can be either daily, weekly or monthly, and will relapse accordingly.

Ok forget what i just said, just look at the tutorial, you will understand everything :)

Step 1.
when first opening the App, it should look like this,
this is the main screen, here you can see a sum of all your tasks.
to add a new task, click the + button in the top right corner.
Step 2.
fill in all your task's details, here i made a guitar practice tasks, 1 hour every day.
click save.
Step 3.
a new task has been added to your list. click play and start jamming :)
 there's some more features like leveling up, and also creating a "tick" task (a task with no specific time), you can see in these screenshots:
and that's it! it's been mostly a learning experience for me and an addition to the portfolio, this version is going to be free to download. i have plans to add an achievements system and maybe charge some money for it :P but we'll see.. 
before i upload it to Google Play, i still want to make a beta cycle, so if you want to help out, send me a message and i'l send you the app, and just email me if you catch a bug :)
this app has not been tested on anything but galaxyS2, and i know there's problems with the display on some devices, but try it anyway :D 
Cheers!
