My Last To-Do App

I have tried and discarded every major task and to-do app, always searching for some combination of features I thought I had to have but never found. I had tried the demo version of Omnifocus for Mac, but didn’t get it. It seemed too complicated. At my wits’ end and never having given Omnifocus a fair try, I watched some YouTube tutorial videos and saw some really interesting features. Then, coming into a bit of money, I took the plunge and bought the Mac and iOS apps. I was underwhelmed at first because of the limited sorting and customization features. The standard version is still a great to-do app, but it’s like a race horse stuck at a carnival giving rides to toddlers.

I went ahead and upgraded to Pro and now I am as close to productivity nirvana as I have ever been. Being able to create your own perspectives and having a ton more sorting options allows you to bend Omnifocus to your will and is worth all that extra money. It still doesn’t meet my ideal (unrealistic) combination of features, but it gave me so many more I wasn’t aware of and now love. So, I would advise buying it but only if you also upgrade to Pro.
