Great support for the weekly GTD® review. It also lets you create and edit your own project templates and design your own views (called ‘perspectives’). OF supports Evernote integration (copy EN note link into OF note field). Projects and tasks can be hidden from view until you are ready to deal with them. Tasks can repeat based on a frequency, or from a completion date. Omnifocus makes it really easy to collect and process your thoughts and tasks by providing a well–designed inbox, a quick entry app and a great clipping service that lets you copy from web pages and pdfs and send the material to the OF inbox. Projects can consist of parallel or sequential tasks. Subtasks can have multiple levels of indentation. Strengths: a versatile app that can change with your needs.

Granted, my illustration is a bit of a spoiler, but please read on if you want to find out which other apps made it into my top ten.Īt a glance: outliner–based task and project management app for Mac desktops ($79.99), with mobile versions for iPhone and iPad ($A20.99 and $A 41.99 respectively on the Australian app store). My ranking is exactly that: a personal top ten, reflecting my preferences (I like a nice UI), my approach to productivity (David Allen’s GTD®), my hardware (I am a Mac user), my needs (as a sole operator I have no need for team collaboration features or enterprise–based software) and my experience (I have tested ~30 task management apps over the past two years). Only ten apps will fit into a top–10 after all (I was reasonably good at maths at school).

Despite meeting those criteria, Things, a sana, FacileThings and several other pretty solid apps did not make the grade.

They are all compatible with David Allen’s Getting Things Done® (GTD®) methodology, capable of supporting basic to complex project management and with at least one mobile app (iPhone or iPad, ideally both). This time around I am opting for an unashamedly impressionistic approach: these are the task management apps I like best. The first time, in a quest for ‘objectivity’, I got bogged down in a treacly mix of scoring apps against criteria that were of my own choosing anyway. This is my second attempt at writing this post.
