Tasky ★ 199 10 APPLICATION

Tasky is a native Android todo and notes application written in Kotlin with Jetpack Compose. It provides task management with date/time reminders, daily repeating tasks, a recycle bin for deleted tasks, a notes feature, Material You dynamic theming, Lottie task-completion animations, sound effects, and offline zip-based backup/restore. The app is fully offline, privacy-first, and published on Google Play with multi-language string resources and fastlane metadata. Architecture is a single-module Android app following MVVM: three Room databases (todo, deleted todo, notes) with DAO/Repository/ViewModel layers, Jetpack Compose UI with Navigation Compose, DataStore for settings, and AlarmManager + BroadcastReceiver for notification scheduling. Boot and date-change receivers reschedule pending notifications. The primary data flow is: user creates task → Room insert → Compose observes Flow → UI updates; reminders are scheduled via exact alarms that fire a BroadcastReceiver posting a notification. Code quality is mixed. The structure is reasonable (clean package separation, Room schema exports with auto-migrations), but notable issues exist: duplicated notification-rescheduling logic between Recursor and BootCompletedReceiver, deprecated onActivityResult APIs, hardcoded UI strings bypassing string resources, allowMainThreadQueries on all Room databases, no meaningful tests (the instrumented test asserts the wrong package name and would fail), and a build.gradle referencing a stability_config.conf file that does not exist in the repository. The app was declared EOL and recently revived for minor updates only.
