![]() ![]() Spurred by Federico Viticci’s article on 2Do I thought I would give it a go. Having to do them one by one rather than all at once on my iPhone is real friction. I often find that a change of plan mid way through the day leaves me wanting to change the due date on 15 - 20 Misc tasks (that were on that day’s todo list) to my next free day. I didn’t notice this when I was using a Mac but on the iOS Omni client, when you want to change the state of a task (such as a due date) or process an inbox item, you can’t select a bunch of them and do them all at once. which gets me to my second issue.īatch processing. I might add 20 or 30 Misc tasks in a day and I don’t want to allocate them one by one to a project. In OmniFocus I have been getting fed up with having to go to the inbox and allocate this to a project. I want to say, - ‘Hey Siri, remind me to back up my Son’s phone tonight’ and for that to end up on my todo list without any further interaction or categorisation. ![]() Now that the iPad normally gets chosen for my travel bag rather than my Macbook, two particular issues have been bugging me with OmniFocus.įirstly, many of the tasks I want to chuck on to my list are relatively trivial, miscellaneous tasks that I want to get on my list as quickly as possible, without any friction. The catalysts for me considering a change of Todo app are actually the iPad Pro and Airmail. ![]() It’s never let me down but the fact that it sometimes seems to make harder work of recording and organising tasks than is necessary has been grating recently. I encourage you all to check out the new OmniFocus page on our site, to watch the app preview video in the App Store or on Vimeo, and to read our free user manual.OmniFocus has been a stalwart of my workflow across all of my devices for a long time. (Version 2.5 will bring the universal app’s landscape support to the iPhone.)

If you’re not sure you need to move from OmniFocus for iPhone yet, that’s just fine: starting with version 2.5, we’ll be updating the iPhone app in lockstep with the universal app so that they both get improvements at the same time.If you own OmniFocus 1 for iPhone or iPad, you can get the Pro In-App Purchase for free.Īnd, for those of you who already own OmniFocus 2 for both iPhone and iPad:.If you’ve been using OmniFocus 2 on your iPhone and would like to start using it on your iPad as well, you can buy the OmniFocus Universal Bundle using Complete My Bundle to preserve the money you invested in the iPhone app.(If you don’t see it right away, try restoring your purchases.) If you’ve already purchased Pro, that carries over too. If you already own OmniFocus 2 for iPad, you’re getting the Universal version as a free update today.To try to make the differences between the new Universal app and the existing iPhone app as clear as possible, we’ve created a little table listing supported devices and features:įor customers who already own OmniFocus, we’ve tried very hard to preserve your existing investment: OmniFocus Universal contains a lot of smaller improvements and bug fixes, too.

With OmniFocus for iPad in 2010, we added features like Forecast and a dedicated Review mode to take full advantage of the form factor. OmniFocus for iPhone was our first iOS (or rather, iPhone OS) app back in 2008. Today (April 2, 2015), we’re releasing the last of those universal updates: OmniFocus 2.1 for iOS! In March, we shipped OmniGraffle for iOS, OmniPlan for iOS, and OmniOutliner for iOS.
