Captio: The simple app that just might change your life

by Josh Helfferich (Sep 30th, 2010)

Anyone who knows me will tell you that I have the worst memory. I also have a bad short-term memory. This makes it tough to remember the things that pop into my head throughout the day, and it makes it especially hard to keep track of tasks and other actions that I must take. I've wanted to use ...

Nozbe was originally a web-based application (still ...

First Look: Taska for iPad and iPhone

by Megan Lavey-Heaton (May 14th, 2010)

I'm by no means a power GTD user, but like a lot of you I am juggling different projects and need to find a way to organize them. When I was younger, I carried around a paper planner, but now I have an iPhone and an iPad in addition to my desktop Mac. The iPad on its own makes an awesome replacement ...

by Megan Lavey-Heaton (Mar 17th, 2010)

At the end of his latest blog post, Cultured Code's Jürgen Schweizer revealed that the company is working on a version of Things for the iPad. The announcement isn't that surprising, especially given that The Omni Group announced at the beginning of February that its software suite, ...

Put Things Off is an iPhone task manager worth owning

by Dave Caolo (Aug 7th, 2009)

I'll admit to being a productivity geek. For me, getting things done is almost as fun as fiddling with my system. After trying every app I could, I've come to a conclusion: Paper is where it's at. There's nothing more flexible and full of potential. You can make arrangements to meet a friend or ...

Things Touch 1.3.5 has been released along with Things 1.1 and, among a heap of bug fixes and UI improvements, you'll find a new feature for syncing Areas of Responsibility from your Mac to your iPhone (it's not yet possible to create Areas in Things Touch). The feature requires Things 1.1 on the ...

Friday Favorite: TextEdit

by Victor Agreda, Jr. (Apr 17th, 2009)

What's free, flexible, easy-to-use but powerful and can handle a wide variety of file types? Our good friend, TextEdit, an app that ships with every Mac. TextEdit is, of course, a simple text editing tool like Notepad or WordPad on Windows. But there's a lot more to "simple text editing" that you ...

Another fistful of apps: Ember, Headspace, myMovies, Nozbe, Juglir and LiveView

by Brett Terpstra (Apr 14th, 2009)

According to my completely unscientific research, about 90% of the TUAW mailbag is comprised of iPhone app announcements. In our continuing effort to not deluge you with iPhone app reviews, I present another "fistful of apps": 6 iPhone app reviews in one post. If you don't have an iPhone, you only ...

by Brett Terpstra (Mar 13th, 2009)

The Omni Group just released OmniFocus 1.6, and it's a big, big update. Current users are going to be pleased, even if they don't bother to page through the extensive list of new features and fixes in the release notes. I've never said anything to the contrary, but this is proof that Omni is ...

The Hit List 0.9.3 introduces repeating tasks

by Megan Lavey-Heaton (Mar 13th, 2009)

Potion Factory's The Hit List introduces repeating tasks to the GTD-style client, but in a pretty neat way. Instead of the traditional method of indicating how often a task should repeat, users can type directly into the "repeating" field, using natural language to describe when and how many times ...

Macworld Expo: Big things for Things

by Michael Rose (Jan 13th, 2009)
