Things 3 for iPad

One of the best organizers I have used , may be the best... the simple layout and the right amount of options make this app very efficient and easy to use

Wow. How sad. Normally I pay for an app I get it on my iPad and my iPhone. $20 for the iPad and now they want another $10 for the phone. No thanks.

This app has so many good reviews… i got it on iPad, Mac and iPhone… annoying paying for it on each app. The only one of the apps that updates immediately when I use Siri to input to my inbox is the iPhone. The other 2 apps take a day or two to show apple reminders in the inbox… rendering these ecosystem useless for me.

I learned the Franklin Covey system many years ago, and as part of that system, tasks are assigned a priority (A, B, or C) and then, within each category a numeric “sequence” (1 thru the number of items in each priority). If Things were to add this feature, I would give it a solid five star review

I've had T3 for awhile on mobile devices, but wanted to make the commitment by including the Mac, but found a review that pointed out the fact that T3 does not allow early completion of Repeating tasks. After downloading the trial version directly from the web site, I find this to be precisely the case. And, sadly this is a deal killer for me, especially considering the financial out-lay for full, multi-device functionality. I see that the UI is not even set up for this, which I find ... well, weird. It looks like it's probably going to take a major re-write of the UI to get this done, (just guessing), which means it's probably not going to happen anytime soon, unless a major, paid, upgrade is in the near future. For those searching for a different task manager, or, in the market for the first time, please be aware of how well laid out this app really is. This is reflected in the many happy customer reviews, and I can tell you that, if it were not for the lack of early completion of completed tasks, and, an apparent need for improved syncing (critical for me), I would be converting to T3 from Sorted3. I just started using Sorted last year and before that I used 2Do for many years for work and personal task management, and believe it is a unique and powerful way to manage your daily t0-dos. Anyway, don't let my deal-killer issue be a singular decider, this is worth a careful consideration in spite of it's inability to fully meet my personal needs.

Would appreciate over and above simple lessons on how to use the features of things (from the developers), but real examples of how the developers envisioned the utility of the features to make “us” more organized and truly fruitful in our day. I understand there are plenty of youtubes and other user videos available. What I would eagerly watch is the story of how a writer / developer uses Things for a project or daily activities, [story real or made up] … this is similar to teaching math problems in a standard text where the concepts are presented but the real power comes in the examples/application. (e.g., use Things by optimizing labels, sub headings etc) … I will continue to use this to the best of my knowledge and look to the developers reply with stories of “How “Things” can do that ….” Thanks for listening ListingForward

This is a well designed app. It’s frustrating that you have to pay another $10 to get the iPhone version though. It removed my reminders in the normal app when I imported them so now I need to either recreate them or buy the iPhone version in order to be reminded on my phone.

I absolutely love the versatility of this app. I use it for my to-dos relating to both my personal and professional life. This app helps me to stay organized so that I can get things done! I really like the home screen widget, and I use it on both my iPad and my iPhone. Once I am able to, I fully intend on purchasing this app for my MacBook as well! Buy it! It is a great investment!

This app has a nice Ul and is very intuitive but it does not have end-to-end encryption of your data, which leaves it exposed! This is unacceptable in 2024. While the app is nice, this drawback makes it unusable to someone who values security and online privacy. The developers need to add end-to-end encryption ASAP! Once this must-have functionality is implemented, I will gladly amend my rating.
