User Reviews

The app shows a lot of promise, and I purchased on the strength of using TaskPaper, and happy to support independent devs. However there are several UI bugs that keep me from making proper use of it. Happy to report them and provide feedback, but the only way to do that is via social media. No email address or proper reporting system in place. Heck, even a GitHub issue tracker would be worlds better. I’m not going to futz around with reporting on social media. If that changes, I’m happy to change my rating.

I got an email from Jesse Grosjean and immediately bought PaperTrail. I’ve been looking for a decent TaskPaper app for iOS since he discontinued the official one. I am having issues with the one main document that I use with this. Works fine in the macOS TaskPaper app, and also in Taskmator for that matter. I am wanting to reach out to the developer but the only avenues are Twitter, Bluesky and Mastodon. I shouldn’t have to use social media to reach out to the guy. Developer, if you are reading this, put an email address or a support form on your website. Please.
