The Advocate DiaryQuick to add
Add tasks from the Tasks quick action on your home screen.
Everything that has to happen before the next date
Hearings are fixed in the calendar, but much of the work around them lives in an advocate's head. Writing that work down as tasks makes it far less likely that something is forgotten before a date.
Tasks are one tap away from the home screen, so adding one takes no longer than writing it on a slip of paper.
