You’re looking at US$79.97 to go all in on Things 3, which isn’t cheap, but it is more affordable than OmniFocus, which will be all yours for US$79.98 (Standard editions) and US$139.97 (Pro editions).Ĭultured Code is having a 20% launch discount until June 1st, so if you want to try it, this is a good time to get it.Īt the same time though, Things 3 is launching in a very different market today than Things 1.
#OMNIFOCUS IOS PRO#
OmniFocus costs US$39.99 for the Standard edition (iOS), US$59.98 for Pro (iOS), US$39.99 for the Standard edition (macOS), and US$79.99 for Pro (macOS). Fingers crossed.īesides being easier to get into, Things 3 is also easier on the wallet … relatively speaking. Also, my secret hope is that Things 3 will inspire The Omni Group to give OmniFocus a makeover. Not everyone needs the complexity that OmniFocus provides, and some will benefit from a focused app that balances usability with utility. Some people might see that as a negative, but I see it as a positive. The old conclusion that Things is prettier, but OmniFocus is more powerful, still holds true with Things 3. But I’ve grown used to the customizability that OmniFocus provides, and I don’t think I can make the switch. I want to switch to Things 3, for its delightful design and swift syncing. On OmniFocus, you can specify both a starting date and time, as well as an ending date and time. On Things 3, however, while you can specify a start date and time, you can only set an end date. For example, with my saved ‘Work’ Perspective, I can see tasks tagged ‘Office,’ ‘Mac,’ and ‘iPhone,’ all at once.ĭeadlines need timelines too. I’ve grown attached to Perspectives on OmniFocus, where you can save sets of contexts to look at. Saved tag selections would be even better. Apparently, you can select multiple tags with Things on macOS using CMD, but it didn’t work for me (a bug?). OmniFocus lets you do this, and it brings up a quick and easy way to see your tasks defined by location. I would have loved to see the ability to include Tags, or what GTD calls ‘contexts,’ in the sidebar. Cultured Code says they’re working on it. Talking about repeating tasks, there’s no way to create them now inside of projects in Things 3. However, I suppose you could schedule a Weekly Review in Things 3 as a repeating task. I’ve missed the Weekly Review. While Things has a handy placeholder for Someday/Maybe, it doesn’t have a built-in Weekly Review feature like OmniFocus does. OmniFocus doesn’t have a Someday/Maybe bucket, but Things does. I’ve missed Someday/Maybe. A ‘Someday/Maybe’ bucket is something that the Getting Things Done (GTD) methodology suggests you use to keep ideas. It’s a nice way to see your progress, and I found it motivating to try and ‘close’ pies by the end of the day. Things 3 introduces ‘Progress Pies,’ a neat visual representation of how close you are to completing a project. It’s a quick and easy way to schedule dates when writing tasks. Natural language processing is fun. You can use natural language for dates in both Things 3 and OmniFocus, but I’ve sometimes run into bugs while using this in OmniFocus. Tasks jump between Things on macOS and iOS in seconds.
#OMNIFOCUS IOS MANUAL#
I often have to trigger manual syncing for OmniFocus on my iPhone to get it up to speed, and even syncing on macOS takes a while when booting. Things Cloud is fast. Cultured Code’s syncing engine is fast. Both Things and OmniFocus let you organize projects into folders (Things calls them ‘Areas’), but Things 3 goes further and gives you Headings, another way to visually organize projects into clear hierarchies. Things 3 isn’t just designed to look good.
#OMNIFOCUS IOS FULL#
It’s colorful, spacious and full of delightful animations that make using the app a joy, something I could never say about the staid OmniFocus. Things 3 is delightful. Things has always been more beautiful than OmniFocus, and version three is the loveliest one of all. But from a long-time OmniFocus user’s perspective, I don’t think I’ll be switching back. I’ve been playing around with it since it was released two weeks ago, and there are things about it that I really like. That’s why it’s a big surprise that Things 3 is finally here. I’ve been using OmniFocus for the past four years and had given up on Things 3 ever shipping. Some people waited, others (like myself), moved on. This app has a history: it was first released in 2007, won an Apple Design Award in 2009, and Things 2 was released in 2012.Īt the end of 2013, Cultured Code announced that they were working on Things 3, and then … it never came.
