I love this app for my classroom. I wish it was available for my laptop. I do cast it to my screen in my classroom, but it would be more convenient if it were assessable on my laptop.

Love it. I use for my cleaning list and it's works perfect for what I wanted.

It was a nice app. My only comment is about it's look visually. I suggest to have a much lighter pastel of colors on the wheel and not so formal looking image. Like a child game visual
