PowerUp at Mac App Store analyse

PowerUp is a new kind of productivity tool based on the simple concept of progress bars.

Wouldn’t it be great if you knew exactly how much further you had to go on a particular project? With PowerUp, you always know, every step of the way. And progress is based on steps you create, so you have complete control over how your progress is tracked. Each project has a giant progress bar that shows the status, based on your results. And its icon in the Finder represents the current state of the project, so youre always up to date!

PowerUp is based on the personal experience of dozens of freelancers, whose performance directly affects their livelihood. It uses time honored tradition of progressive checklists. But PowerUp updates your progress for you, allowing you to concentrate on your list. It’s simple, fast, and efficient, because it had to be!

PowerUp also borrows heavily from the video game industry, and brings 25 years of progress, shields, magic, power, and health bars into the real world. Sure, that glowing diamond will replenish your life essence, but can it get you a raise? Using PowerUp can!

PowerUp’s Focus Mode helps you concentrate on specific tasks. Just click an item you’re having problems finishing, and the main progress bar will only track progress for that item. It will give you a fresh perspective on what needs to be done first, and keep you focused while youre working.

You can easily rearrange items by dragging and dropping items around. Drag an item onto another item, and it becomes a child. Drag it back out, and both items revert to their previous state. The progress bar watches all of this, and updates itself accordingly.

Hint: if you copy an item in PowerUp, the percentages and hierarchy are copied along with it. So you can easily email or update someone on your progress, with accuracy and detail.
