@gadgick Thanks Nic! Ping me at chris@sprout.io if you'd like a personal walkthrough in setting up via Zoom. We have a Google Calendar integration in the works that give you more complete view of your day for daily planning.

@bjmendelson Thanks for the eloquent description of your experience 🙏 When we first started working on this, finding a good way to save and share a curated collection of links was the focus (like a syllabus). It later evolved to help take action and do more with those saved links oppose to collecting dust.

@manas_sharma 🙌 Thanks Manas, we really appreciate it!

@manas_sharma Congrats! Happy to checkout it out. Will do so now.

@ziggy_crane1 Thanks for critique Ziggy! I respect how Basecamp can take an inherently complex product and break it down simple ways. Folks interested in Basecamp likely wouldn't be interest in Sprout (vice versa). Basecamp does a wonderful job giving medium size teams, that struggle to grok it's organizational workflow, a pre-built solution to reduce workplace complexity. The core workflow is completely different. Sprout focuses on providing an excellent solo/single player daily organization experience. It requires lighter, faster, daily planner to process the overwhelming amount of information we process on a daily basis. This consumer experience can be shared with your team. The non-core lipstick visual stuff changes on a weekly basis. We've already completely revised the public site 5 times – it will probably change again next week 😂 I'd love to hear any critique of the core workflow if you're willing to try it out – it's free. Ping me at chris@sprout.io if you'd like a personal demo via Zoom.

@ziggy_crane1 @watlandc this may have gone lost on you Chris, but since you seem to be keen on professional feedback.. The fact that you speak so nonchalantly about essentially duplicating another product’s visual language and design — visibly, although far from as mature and as balanced — speaks more about your initiative than you seem to think. Ziggy didn’t call out how Sprout flows, what it tries to solve or how. The fact that you made no effort to acknowledge his question, in itself sends a message that I believe you might want to try and see the value of. User experience, IxD and visual language is as important a piece of IP as everything else. Since we all build things based on how functional ideas can solve for specific problems, the way that visual interfaces and languages interact with the human eye is just as meaningful. Just as “one’s own”. >>> This one isn’t yours. In one way or another, people will surely find something interesting in your solution. So, make it truly yours. It’s a great base and I’m sure you can do a lot better. So, be better; and try to listen more along the way. Sure, there’s a lot of garbage that our ears are preferably best left without. However, the trick is to adjust your sensors to try and capture value from virtually everything and everybody, as much as possible. His comment to you was VERY valid. You’ll do great and your life will be much MUCH easier. All the best.

@deepak09 Thank you so much for checking out Sprout! Regarding the `visual design` Hey, Pinterest, and other apps that take take a minimal simple approach to reduce overwhelm were inspiration. I plan on spending more time on the visual design front of Sprout to experiment more, innovate, and settle into a more unique visual language. 90% of time with Sprout as been spent crafting the product workflows – striving to solve my own needs for a simple, minimal-looking, yet powerful – daily planner. I reached a point where the product is sticky for me and I don't see a replacement. I'm interested in getting more feedback on how it works for others. If you're willing to share, I'd love to hear any unfiltered feedback on how well it works for you as a daily planner. No worries about hurting my feelings :) btw – it looks like you're working on a lot of interesting stuff and I wish you luck on those endeavors. 🙌

@watlandc Hey Chris, I have begun creating leaf's and setting up my project on Sprout! So far, I love it. It needs a few more functionalities like Export Leaf and Boards (Like trello inside a Leaf). But I'm going to keep using this! If you want to connect with me, check scrollme.today/deepak

@deepak09 Thanks for the feedback! I'll track the exporting of leaves/trees request. Just checked out your page and followed.

@carolinanmd Thank you Carolina! We feel the same way. We found that it was hard to build a daily routine with other organizational tools out there because they're just not – fun to use? We would rather have a product that you use 80% of the features daily oppose to only using 20% (with an additional 80% of features only creating noise).

@zeng 🙌

@saasdesigner Thanks Bren! One design pattern that I've seen before, but Hey seems to have reinvigorated is the bottom toolbar. It reminds me of the buttons on a F1 race car steering wheel – available at your fingertips, but out of your way as to not distract. I checked out your PH profile – just followed for growth tips 🙌

@cyszewai We're grateful that these latest features have been helpful. Thank you for you feedback.

@watlandc Will there be any new features in the upcoming months?

@cyszewai Yes, a notable feature that we've received a lot of feedback on is our upcoming Google Calendar integration. Currently, when planning tasks for your day and upcoming week you have to open your calendar separately to view your non-task events. Opening the calendar separately adds friction and things can slip through the cracks. The Agenda will remain simple as it is now, except you will have the option to enable your Google Calendar events to display directly above next 7 days of your Agenda. By combining your Sprout items and Calendar Events on the same page, you have only one place to check to get a more complete view of your day and upcoming events. Most to-dos apps expect you to schedule a due date for everything you do, they don't honor the difference between your "events" and "tasks". We intend for Sprout to do a better job better delineating and centralizing these two types of information. Unlike most to-dos apps, we already delineate between "When" you want to work on something and "Deadlines" (which are used more sparingly). You can of course select which of your calendars you would like to appear on your agenda. Related, we also have an "Agenda Email" in the works. If you have events or items on your Agenda, we'll send you a daily Agenda Email showing your plans for the day (which you can of course opt-out of). I hope you love these new features!

@cyszewai congrats on the launch 🚀 I believe my days are going to be more productive, will share this with my team as well 🙌

@shankarling_kalashetty Woot! Can't wait to hear how it works for you. If you would ever like a personal walkthrough via Zoom, ping me at chris@sprout.io.

@sowmya_k_s Thank you 🙏

@eunca That's a great use case for Sprout. I just did the same for a recent holiday trip. If you try it out, please let me know how it works for you. btw - just looked at your PH profile. Your Benefits With Friends site sound really useful. I often want to throw out a question outside of of my network, but there's really no service that does exactly that. Just jumped on your waitlist.

@watlandc Thank you Chris for checking my landing page out :D As you saw, I just have a landing page built, and I'm trying to figure out where to get my first handful of audience who would be interested in such product.

@jennifer_primard Thank you! This is our focus, so we're very glad to hear it 🙏

@greg_mckibben Thanks Greg! Your feedback in using the product has a been super helpful.

@john_guidos Thanks John! I really appreciate you sharing your feedback. 🙌
