Once loaded with your information, MLO goes to work and generates a simple list containing only the next actions that require your immediate attention. This list is updated auto-magically once you complete a task, or simply when it’s dinner time.
What else makes MLO so powerful? Behind MLO products there is a long history (since 2004), a team of responsive developers and a strong community of users who are truly serious about their time and tools they use. It is their honest feedback that makes MLO apps packed with carefully thought out, powerful, yet easy-to-use features.
