![]() ![]() Rather than seeing that task on your list every single day, you can instead set what OmniFocus calls a Defer Date.Įvery To Do app should have Defer Dates and ridiculously few do. Only, maybe you've decided you'll worry about that come tax season, or maybe it's just that you know your accountant is out of town for a month. There is never a point where you cannot go to, say, your Finances project and see that you need to ask your accountant whether coffee is a tax-deductible expense. ![]() Initially that is actually quite scary - you know you put the task in, but you can't see it. You can later fill out a task with more than half a dozen options that will help you find and do it laterīut OmniFocus will actively hide tasks until you need to know about them. Ultimately that's a boon because it means whatever you're doing, there is a very fast way to note down a task and get back to work. With capturing tasks, just entering them into the app as you think of them, and with processing or sorting them, OmniFocus has myriad different tools. There is a system, a To Do methodology behind OmniFocus and it's David Allen's "Getting Things Done." You don't need to read his book or even know it exists, but OmniFocus started out following his dividing tasks into capturing them, processing them, and doing them. And then you're likely to go on to the Pro version because its few extra options include one of OmniFocus's killer feature, Perspectives. Nonetheless, if OmniFocus is right for you, it's right for you everywhere and you are likely to start with the free trials, then expand to what are called the Standard versions of it on each platform. ![]() It's possible to solely use, say, the iPhone app, and never try the rest. Given the fact that they still stress that they encourage their customers to buy a license, it smells a bit funny.There are minor differences between these versions, but they're chiefly to do with adapting it to different size screens. Is there a release date for OmniFocus Web as a separate option? It sort of boggles my mind that the OmniGroup has put out the abillity to subscribe to the whole thing but not the individual OmniFocus Web option. With OmniFocus 3 having been released in 2018, I guess that OmniFocus 4 will not be released until several years from now, so it might be cheaper for me to go for the upgrades and to subscribe to OmniFocus Web, when it will be available as a separate option? Correct? Please ignore my questions if you consider them to be too off-topic: As an alternative, I could switch to the subscription route. And on top of that, I will have to pay for OmniFocus Web. In order to use OmniFocus 3, I will have to purchase the app on my Mac and on my i-devices which will cost me about 80 to 90 Euro (upgrade pricing from version 2). What I am not sure about is the licensing. OmniFocus Web is bridging the gap I experience when working at the PC at work, even if the web option is more basic. Yesterday, I installed OmniFocus 3 on my i-devices and learned to like it again because of the powerful possibilities the application definitely has. There are things I will miss in OmniFocus (no pun intended) like the very slick design. I have used OmniFocus (2) from 2015 to 2018. ![]()
