A simple project manager for simple developers. Designed as a way to escape expensive and complicated management systems, Fox Issue Tracker strives to be an effective tool at keeping projects in order.
Track everything that matters—from simple titles and notes to subtasks, time estimates, due dates, linked issues, attachments, and resolution details. Fox gives you the depth you need without overwhelming you with fields you’ll never use.
Write rich, formatted notes with full markdown support including standard markup, code blocks, lists, and embedded images. Document implementation plans, highlight critical details, and keep technical notes right where you need them.
Log estimates and actual effort to improve future planning. Track resolution details to learn from completed work. The Kanban board automatically displays totals to help you scope sprints and understand workload at a glance.
View any milestone or version as a kanban board with columns organized by status. Drag issues through your workflow and watch progress unfold visually.
See estimated and actual effort totals for each column and the entire board. Make informed decisions about what fits in your current sprint and what needs to wait.
Organize work naturally: Projects contain Milestones, Milestones contain Versions. This simple structure maps perfectly to how developers actually ship software—no complex workflows or confusing terminology.
Issue Types, Statuses, and Resolutions offer ways to organize and control the flow of issues through the pipeline and tags provide cross-cutting organization for anything else. Tags work across your entire project hierarchy, making it easy to find related work no matter where it lives.
Find issues instantly with search across titles, descriptions, and tags. Filter by status, tags, or properties to focus on exactly what you need right now.
True native apps for macOS, iOS, and iPadOS built with Swift and SwiftUI. Fox feels at home on every Apple platform with proper system integration and platform conventions.
Your issues sync automatically across all your devices using iCloud. Work on your Mac, jot ideas on your iPhone, read on your iPad—everything stays in sync without third-party services.
Quickly import issues from external sources and accurately review their contents using the CSV importer.
Shortcuts allow for integration with the system to automate several actions and connect to other tools.
Integrate with the LLM of your choice with MCP integrations, available on macOS. Use Fox as a simple way to manage, oversee, and plan the milestones and releases of your automated tooling.
