Feedback on new landing page

A simple all-in-one to-do list app for tasks and projects | Tidily

The app is a minimal to-do list app that offer the main use cases of apps like Trello, Todoist, Teuxdeux etc but in a much simpler way.

Is the message clear from the page?

    Hey Biraj,

    All-in-all I like the feel of the landing page because the spectrum of colors you chose goes against the current trends, and the illustrations are the right type of naive for my taste.

    You achieved two different contrasts between the fonts in the headlines and the content - I applaud you for that, exceptional job.

    Let me list a couple things that I think would add to the visual appeal:

    • The page at first glance seems cluttered, I would work on the spacing and margins.
    • Change the blue favicon to orange or brown.
    • Since you're going for simplicity, I would definitely avoid those bevels and embosses on the buttons. The very most I would add is a subtle gradient, but barely noticeable.
    • I would avoid the blue headings in your presentation video, because it breaks the poise feel of the page. Remember, your page is a shade of orange, and blue is the complementary color of orange. So if you use a blue with a tonal value higher than your darkest orange on the page, and with a chromatic value higher than your highest orange, it becomes intrusive and disturbing for the viewer. I would say that based on your site the darkest tonal value of your blues should be around 2 - or 3 at the most.
    • I would experiment with some very subtle hover effects and transitions, maybe some wispy drop shadows as well, but the key word here is subtle.

    Alright, that's that from my side. Take it with a grain of salt, I might be just blabbering nonsense :D

    Keep up the good work!

      Thanks @andreigaspar for such a in-depth feedback !
      you have some excellent points I'll definitely work on those.
      Also glad you liked the oldy look , I was a bit scared to try it out against all the current trends.

    It might just be a matter of personal taste, but I found the animation a bit too fast. It was a distraction when I was reading the page copy, and a little too quick for me to understand what was going on, when I tried to watch the animation itself.
    IMO the page would work better if you slowed down the frame rate a bit. But, like I said, that could just be me.
    Good luck.

      You are right , they are a bit sped up in order to keep the file size small. But I will work on it.
      Thanks for the feedback :)

    "Powerful but inexpensive"

    The "but" implies that one of these are negative.. it should be "Powerful and inexpensive"

      Glad you liked the design and thanks for the feedback! I wanted to keep a retro look but with a modern touch.
      I'll definitely work on those 3 things, specially thanks for pointing out the pricing scrolling... I missed it on my testing.
