By combining your INBOX, TO-DO list and CALENDAR in ONE APP, Handle gives you the power to focus on the important things and the peace of mind to know that you’re on top of your life.
*** Why Do You Need Handle? ***
Your most important decision today — and every day for the rest of your life — is where you focus your attention next. Not all emails are equal, not every to-do is top priority, and sometimes there are just more important things to do in life. That’s why we made Handle.
Deeply integrated with Google email and calendar, Handle lets you stay on top of everything that matters to you in one place, whether its an important email requiring action, a project-related task, a team meeting, or personal to-do like stopping by the dry cleaners after work.
/// Supports Gmail ONLY /// Currently, Handle only supports Gmail for connecting your inbox. We’re working hard to add support for Exchange and other email services. Coming soon!!
/// Cloud Sync requires Dropbox /// Syncing your to-dos between devices or your desktop is done via Dropbox to protect your privacy. A Dropbox account is required for syncing.
*** Key Features ***
To-Do Timeline -- Organize and prioritize everything in one place with your To-Dos Timeline.
Inbox Actions -- Instantly turn your emails into to-dos or appointments with just a swipe.
Contextual Reminders -- Reminders based on time or location help you focus on the most important things you can do.
Integrated Calendar -- Quickly schedule reminders or events right from inside Handle
Projects -- Make progress on your long term goals by grouping to-dos into projects
Chrome Plugin -- Handlebar allows you to use Handle at your desk.

Excellent Productivity Tool

Terrific combination of to-do and calendar app. I have moved completely from my traditional calendar app on iPhone to Handle.
It's a shame this has been abandoned ?

This was a great app with lots of potential. Sad it's not getting updated.
Genius

TL;DR - It’s still in a league of its own, even though it’s sadly been abandoned. The world needs this, I hope it comes back. It’s brilliant and effective. The only todo I’ve found truly useful (and I keep up with the latest and greatest). It’s an ambitious app integrating email -> todos -> calendar in a very elegant manner. There are fast tools to triage and organize tasks, and easy daily scheduling of events and todos in single timeline. It’s very well thought out, the features and flow of this app are outstanding. There’s nothing else like it, from a “pure” product perspective they really knew what they were doing. It’s tragic it was abandoned. It’s still pretty functional in its current state (development stopped over a year ago, and multi-device sync isn’t supported), but it’s exciting to imagine where it can go if it took off... I really hope the developer resumes and succeeds changing the game with this awesome approach he pioneered.
Nothing else like it

One of the best productivity apps I’ve ever found. Haven’t seen anything else like it.
Great app but hope it continues to be updated?!?

Very useful app. with many unique features I haven’t been able to find in other apps. Thanks for the hard work put forth in developing such an excellent productivity tool!
Handle.com is for sale

It looked like it'd be a useful, streamlined app but when I went to attach my Gmail account, I got a "domain for sale" page. Is the app still supported?
A few steps away from perfection

Update? Abandoned again long time since update, wondering if app will be around soon ...;( It needs a desktop app that mirrors the phone experience...when using online it's just tasks separate from email as a sidebar in gmail, just junky... But I am using it on desktop less and less... Because it's a winner on the phone. Less features than CLOZE and others but the essentials are exactly where u need them and the clarity of the calendar view with today's tasks it's the cleanest and most logical. The few things that would be ideal additions are a way to default view of choice when u open app (calendar \ today would be better for me then tasks), the inclusion of an automatic archive with "completed date" of project tasks (kind of essential in business to track) ...and the long awaited search function to find a missing mail without flipping over to Gmail app. Give me those and 5 stars all the way.
Complications

The only thing that would make this app better is if it would have a complication to be added to my Iwatch screen. Love it.
For work
Annoyed userrr!
Great to make sure I don't forget things for work! Love the music it plays when you check something off. I would enjoy if it gave a "scheduled" date instead of due date.. if that makes sense. Also wish it gave categories so I could make multiple different lists
