Great in version 1.0, lots of promise for future – Tot Pocket Review

I’m going ahead and giving this 5 stars because I already find it 5 stars worth of useful, although see below for a couple of suggestions for the future. I’m a heavy nvALT / 1Writer user for text snippets and such (h/t Merlin Mann) and I thought at first this was like a less-functional version of those. But having used it, I can see that it has different use cases. It doesn’t replace those apps for me, but it turns out I still needed Tot in my life. For me, I like the fact that it has 7 dots, and there are 7 days in the week... so right now I am using Tot to map out my to-dos / notes for each day of the week. Previously, this job was accomplished either by a messy, rotating series of nvALT notes or a bunch of index cards, but Tot seems like a simpler and cleaner solution. You already have my money and my five stars, but here are some suggestions for the devs for future versions in case you want six stars in my heart. Apologies if these already exist and I missed them somewhere... I haven’t been using the app super-long. * Configurable number of dots * Support Control-Tab and Shift-Control-Tab for navigating between dots (or make the shortcut configurable), for those of us who immediately tried to use the web browser shortcuts * This one’s a bit weird, and I don’t feel as strongly about it... but for those of us who might use this as a week-ahead planner, maybe add an easy way to rearrange the order of the dots (e.g. when Monday’s over, it might be nice to be able to move my “Monday” dot to the end of the list) Thanks for making this!
