OmniFocus 2 App Reviews

The worst thing about this software is that developers never listen and never implement something new. They rarely fix major bugs, never add features that are really needed. That makes this app very limited and buggy and very hard to use. The price is too high for this kind of an experience.

This is hands-down the best organizational apps. Has so many features and is very smart about organizing ideas. Its not just for tasks but its also a fantastic outliner plus study aid and all-around will make you a smarter person!

Omnifocus is a powerful, versatile, reliable, and multilayered application. Ive been using it as my primary GTD app for a number of years, and while Ive toyed with other apps, Ive always come back to this one.

I spent weeks going back and forth on trying Omnifocus. I tried every option you could think of before biting the bullet and downloading it. Now that I have I cant imagine using anything else. The app is fantastic and they are constantly updating it. Dont let the price scare you off. Its worth every penny!

Im still thrilled and amazed at just how good OmniFocus is on every platform: iPhone, iPad, Mac, and now Apple Watch. OmniFocus is my go-to app for running virtually everything in my life, work and personal. Great series of apps.

Still crash on Apple Watch

Omnifocus has been my daily organizational brain for years and has not let me down once. No data loss, no syncing issues. Its solid as a rock.

As a remote worker, Omnifocus keeps me organized. Whether Im on my computer or on the go with my iPhone. If you use Getting Things Done, Omnifocus is the app for you.

Only needed support once. Nicest support I have dealt with. Real people, an app I use most every day

Ive used this app for years, since the very first version on both mac and iOS. I check out the field from time to time, but there simply is nothing better.

The new 3D Touch features are nice. I only wish they could think of more ways for it to be useful. Still, this is a great update and an excellent app overall.

I use this every day, and its the most important app on my phone. The email-to-task functionality they offer server-side is super useful. And the watch complications are handy. Solid app stability wise, and responsive support when I have issues/questions.

I’m a GTD person, and have used OmniFocus since the beginning. While it is highly structured and can be difficult to learn, this is because GTD itself requires some serious orienting to a new way of thinking. GTD is not for everyone. But if you really “get” the GTD idea, you’ll find OmniFocus manifests it very accurately. I use the “PRO” version and if you want to really do GTD and be able to customize to your needs, you’ll have to go Pro. Whether the cost is appropriate is a personal decision. But I think it definitely is, mostly because Omni has OUTSTANDING customer support. When you have a problem, you get a rapid and thoughtful response. I would give this 5 stars as the program has been of incredible value to my workflow, but I believe there is one serious issue, however which is Omni has a protocol that will drop a device if it doesn’t sync in a while. My guess is this is a security technique, but depending on your usage, it can be a glitch for your workflow. For example, I use OmniFocus on my Mac and my iPhone 6. But I mostly use it on my Mac. I recently had a reason to not use my iPhone for a while, and when I tried to sync, the system had dropped the iPhone from being recognized. This meant I had to go through my HUNDREDS of action items to figure out which I had added to the iPhone so that I could re-add them after syncing with the Mac database. While the company gave me good suggestions for how to avoid in the future, I wanted to issue this as a warning to others: if you sync between devices, do NOT let more than a few weeks go by without making sure all your devices are synced. The fact there is no warning sent to the user that his iPhone will be dropped without his permission downgrades the experience to 4 stars for this otherwise great product and great company.

I must say that once you understand the app protocol it is hands down the best GTD.

This app has everything I need to rigorously implement GTD in my life. From location-based reminders to context sorting to projects within folders within folders, its an extremely functional tool. Worth the hefty price tag.

I love this app!

Whether you like it or not, Omnifocus just works. Its the pro tools of the productivity world. My life lies within OmniFocus.

Ive gone back and forth on Omnifocus. This time around I think its going to stick. Tons of intuitive refinements make it easy to incorporate into most processes.

Dont waste your time with this. It stinks. Forty dollars and you cant even customize your filters or views unless you pay another $20. Why in the world is this app so expensive. Plus I couldnt even get it to run. Crashes on my iPad

I couldnt get to the end of a productive, successful day without Omnifocus! I use it on my Mac, iPhone, and Apple Watch. Its quick, responsive, and unrivaled in the task management arena! Absolutely worth the money!
