Following up on the category requirement comment - if I hadn't read the parent comment here first, when trying the app I probably would have walked away concluding it didn't work.
The first button in the bar is create a new task. That's the first thing any visitor will click. If you try to create a task there is no category available, no hint they are required or important, no reason why I'd care what category the task is, and the error state is indicated by a green highlight - the universal signal for "everything is good." All I would have seen is, hmm, I can't make a task, this must be broken. Move on.
I mention all of this because the app looks like a fantastic new tool and I suspect this small issue would have a much bigger impact on adoption than you might anticipate as the author of the tool.
