#USING OMNIFOCUS PRO#

For iPhone, iPad and Mac, Cultured Code has included intro projects that walk you through the apps' features, help you create an account and set up sync with Things Cloud. (If you want to do step 3, you'll need the Mac app.) Just like with Omnifocus, I find it really helpful to have both the Mac and the iOS apps. *Note: Ken from Omnifocus told me multiselect will be coming to Omnifocus for iOS later in 2017.Р”Р‡irst, buy Things 3. I love trying out new productivity tools. I am quick to support people who create high-quality apps. To make the same change to ten items is a huge, repetitive annoyance. Things 3 has multiselect on iOS, and Omnifocus does not.* This has been one of the most frustrating parts of Omnifocus for iOS. (As an example of its power, you can automate tons of stuff with their URL Scheme support but in my many years using Omnifocus, I've never taken advantage of that functionality.)

Omnifocus Pro is still the most powerful personal organization tool out there, but possibly because of that additional power, it's more difficult to learn and use. Omnifocus feels like too robust of a tool for my needs. For an app I use every day, this is important. Things 3 in my opinion does a better job of quickly displaying the information I want to see and reduces the number of taps/clicks to complete a task. Things 3 has a simpler, more sophisticated design. I've been using Omnifocus 2 for this purpose since it was released in 2014.Р”Вeciding to move my life to another app was a big decision for me. As I wrote in ' How I Keep Track of My Life'Р’В (one of my most-read pieces),Р’В I follow the Getting Things Done methodology for staying organized and thoughtfully prioritizing.
