Your System - Functions and Apps That Fulfill Them 3/7/2019

I made a Dynalist outline of my "digital toolkit" which is basically an extended version of my earlier contribution to this thread. https://dynalist.io/d/gPrYw1qBaugWZqm9HUW3zWj5 I would very much ...

Migrate from Dynalist to Outlinely 3/4/2019

Since this group is called Outliner Software, worth noting that the Goal Enforcer developers have a new (windows-only) outlining app: https://www.visualoutliner.com/ I don't use windows, but I thoug...

Migrate from Dynalist to Outlinely 3/1/2019

I try to separate out functions to different apps and thus largely avoid using Dynalist as a task manager. I use it mostly for taking notes, organizing my syllabi, and brainstorming new projects. I do...

Migrate from Dynalist to Outlinely 2/28/2019

Since they (finally) fixed the iOS app, I now use Dynalist exclusively. I was lucky enough to be grandfathered in to the older subscription rate, so I pay for Dynalist Pro. I also purchased a lifetime...

"Hook" app links related documents together 2/14/2019

Somewhat related, here are some decent free tools to get markdown links from webpages on Chrome and iOS: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/create-link/gcmghdmnkfdbncmnmlkkglmnnhagajbm https:...

Your System - Functions and Apps That Fulfill Them 2/9/2019

Paperpile is working on improving the search of your highlights within the app - especially if you use their built in highlighting tools on the web or in their (beta) mobile app. But I like to work wi...

Your System - Functions and Apps That Fulfill Them 2/8/2019

1. Brainstorming :: Dynalist 2. Random Notetaking :: Drafts (iOS and Mac beta) (send to Evernote, DayOne, and Bear) 3. Scheduling :: Fantastical 2 and Calendar 5 (for the great "Week View" on iOS) 4. ...

Sort of a poll: What is your favorite task manager/to do app? 1/30/2019

For me GTD is about NOT thinking about things I have to do. The benefit of GTD is precisely that it isn't one big list, but that it hides all the things that can be done "someday" or in a different co...

Dynalist on iOS actually working? 1/29/2019

Was on a long flight and used it consistently without any freezes. Feeling hopeful... Luhmann wrote: So the latest update Dynalist 1.3.1 seems to fix the remaining issues >that were still causing it ...

Sort of a poll: What is your favorite task manager/to do app? 1/29/2019

Everdo looks interesting, but no iOS app yet. Roadmap says it should come out sometimes this year though...

Dynalist on iOS actually working? 1/28/2019

So the latest update Dynalist 1.3.1 seems to fix the remaining issues that were still causing it to freeze on launch. I say "seems" because I keep announcing that the problem is fixed only to find tha...

Todoist to offer Kanban boards (again) 1/26/2019

Taskade is another app that foolishly insists on treating notes like comments. 2Do's option to switch between "checklists" and "Projects" gives one nice flexibility about how to handle sub-tasks. (P...

ProgressBox (iOS, macOS) 1/24/2019

A new apple-centric Trello clone looks nice, but is useless to me because while I am apple-centric, when I collaborate I need something that everyone can use... https://progressbox.com/

Sort of a poll: What is your favorite task manager/to do app? 1/21/2019

Thanks for the summary. To elaborate a bit, I use 2Do for all my personal tasks, but I also use Todoist, Trello, and Dynalist. I wouldn't include Dynalist here because I don't use it as a task manager...

Sort of a poll: What is your favorite task manager/to do app? 1/10/2019

I believe a large part of what makes GTD useful is the ability to hide what you don't need to see, while being confident that your system will bring stuff to your attention when you do need to see it....

Dynalist on iOS actually working? 1/3/2019

So the crashing/freezing that is still happening on iOS seems to be date related. It only happens on the first launch of a new day, and goes away for the rest of the day after force-quitting/restartin...

Dynalist on iOS actually working? 1/1/2019

Update: So it is working well ... most of the time. I've had one freeze/crash since I started using it again, but mostly it is working much better now.

Dynalist on iOS actually working? 1/1/2019

I had almost written a post last week saying "all I want for 2019 is for Dynalist to finally work on iOS" but I deleted it. I just didn't think it was realistic. Yet, here we are. Dynalist just droppe...

Beorg for iOS 12/28/2018

I recently discovered that there is a Org Mode plugin for the Visual Studio IDE. https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=tootone.org-mode

Season's greetings 12/26/2018

Happy Holidays to everyone!

Question About Kanban Boards 12/17/2018

Oh, and I didn't know that Trello has a similar feature as well! https://help.trello.com/article/819-viewing-all-of-your-cards

Question About Kanban Boards 12/17/2018

I think there are some apps that offer "filters" which can show you priority tasks across multiple boards. AirTable can do this but doesn't yet offer a Kanban view on iOS. I forget but I think Meister...

Todoist to offer Kanban boards (again) 12/16/2018

Todoist developer made the announcement on Twitter: https://twitter.com/amix3k/status/1073162472876597249 They had something similar for Windows 10 in the past, but killed it. This will be for all p...
