OmniFocus 3

… that would erase your App Lock setting for OmniFocus and would crash the app when you try to add a password enabling App Lock when running on an iOS 14 device. It took a little while but I’m very happy with the results!

The watch app stops me from getting sucked into so much wasted time on my phone, but it needs to work. Apple’s bug that prevents long press from working without a forced reset of the app has affected the watch for some years now. It renders it unuseable. Please change the action to add a task from long press to absolutely anything else. A simple button is reliable. Pleaseeee. I want to use the app.

This app used to be amazing. I have relied on it for years and my LIFE is in it. Unfortunately now it freezes all the time while I’m trying to add a task. By the time it unfreezes or works, I have forgotten what I was trying to write down in the first place. I have had to reinstall it numerous times. It simply freezes all the time. Given the importance of a GTD to-do app like this one would think they’d work hard to make it reduce stress for subscribers , not add it.

This app and software is the gold standard for task management. Others are more flashy and get updated more frequently, but none come close to competing for some reason. Learning curve seems steep, but it’s a lifelong journey and worth the time. I’m a decade plus in. Left, tried everything else, always come back.

I’ve used OmniFocus for about 6 years now and I still love it. Many reviewing this app want it to be something it’s not. It’s a to-do list. However, it is the most powerful to-do app you will ever use. It is for organizing projects down to a granular level. It’s for people who have multiple facets of life and each needs its own special organization for their tasks. It’s for sorting related tasks into however you want to view them. It’s for alerting you about your tasks in any way you wish. It is insanely powerful and customizable. I use it for everyday to-do lists. I also used it to manage my entire last year of university when I was 39 and had a full time job and family. I use it for all of that too. This is the best organizing tool I’ve ever used. It especially helps me being bipolar and autistic when I forget about things I need to do. It always reminds me. Keep up the good work! I can’t wait for v4!

OMNI Group has regressed OmniFocus in removing the option for first day of week in their UI. But worse, their instructions to change the global setting instead reflect a grave technical error that will harm their users. The global setting in MacOS and iOS is for overriding locale-based date calculations and should not be changed away from the country’s default for cosmetic reasons. In particular, it will change week numbering and other similar operations, as ISO date libraries base those rules in part on the DOW start set by the locale. This is why Calendar and other similar apps have their own option to override it for display purposes only. That way your financial and business apps aren’t affected by your calendaring UI preferences. What OMNI has actually done here by conflating those needs and removing their own display-only option is to remove parity with other calendaring apps. There is now no safe option for changing the start day in the Forecast UI. Unfortunately, they don’t seem to understand that, and so have topped it off with stunningly bad advice to their users that will have potential negative side effects reaching far beyond their own apps. OMNI has been getting steadily worse at making great apps for real people for years. They abandoned any innovation of their core apps, switching focus to weak web versions and catering to the tiny number of power users who want extensive automation. Allowing a usability gaffe like this to regress their software out of parity (after many years of doing it right!) is an awful shame, but isn’t a shock given their trajectory. But explicitly instructing their users to change a global OS locale setting that shouldn’t be lightly modified in order to compensate for that regression is. And I truly think they don’t understand what a mistake that was. The mighty have truly fallen.

The dealbreaker for me is that I have to open the app for the notification badge to show. I need that red badge to know to click on the app - so it’s a catch 22. What’s the point of a reminders app that doesn’t remind you?

Absolute garbage, scam app. Paid full price to "buy" the already overpriced OmniFocus app when it was released, only for it to become quickly obsolete and no longer maintaining even the most basic function of a simple text editing & notetaking feature. Now when you go to open up that OmniFocus app, that you supposedly own, all it allows you to see is a "proof" picture receipt that you do "own" it that they then have the audacity to say can be used to gain a discount[!] on a future version for which they now want your [more, and more, and more] money. Which brings us, finally, to now, a time when the forty-fifty dollar iPhone/iPad app is now - get this - FREE. But only so for two weeks. And only so if you create an account with them, and hand over to them your credit card payment information, with which they can indeed very soon begin charging you with recurring dings that are even higher, forgetting for a moment the matter of frequency, than they were at the beginning. GARBAGE. Belongs in the trash disposal, or flush down the commode with the other human economic waste.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ get it now.
