Dublin, OH – FourthFrame Technologies has announced a new iPad app for managing action items: SG Action Log. SG Action Log expands the Simple Genius Apps suite to the ubiquitous domain of action item management. With a design based on the popular app SG Project (formerly Project Pad), SG Action Log is likely to be met with a warm welcome from business managers who leverage action item management as a tool for success.

Action Item Management has come to iPad. “This is such a common activity in business that we were surprised at the lack of support for it on the iPad,” said Ty Jacobs of FourthFrame Technologies, designer of SG Action Log. “We are confident that Project Managers will embrace this new app but it doesn’t stop there – action item management is a simple but powerful discipline for any team manager and leads to success.”

SG Action Log helps managers maintain a list of actions with due dates, specific owners, a priority, and a history of notes. This ensures that tasks don’t fall through the cracks and that action owners are held accountable for achieving stated goals on time. “Not rocket science,” says Jacobs, “but experienced managers know the power of this discipline”. FourthFrame saw a perfect fit for action item management within the Simple Genius Apps suite, which is designed to bring mobility and simplicity to management activities. SG Action Log has a look-and-feel similar to FourthFrame’s popular SG Project app, lessening the learning curve for users of the suite.

FourthFrame is also committed to growing the Simple Genius Apps suite, so this second member is just one step down that road. And their approach of continual refinement based on customer feedback from real-world usage should ensure the future of Simple Genius Apps as a popular set of tools for real business on the iPad.

Device Requirements:
* Compatible with iPad
* Requires iPhone OS 3.2 or later
* 2.5 MB

Pricing and Availability:
SG Action Log 1.0 is $9.99 (USD) and available now worldwide exclusively on the App Store in the Business category.
