A new Google Tasks and an older Excel/Tasks life goal system 7/26/2018

One thing that might make Google Tasks useful for me is being able to link to emails, but if I link an email to a task on the desktop, that link doesn't appear in the iPhone version of the app...

MarginNote 3 on the way 7/26/2018

This is another one of those apps that seems like it would be perfect for me, but which I actually can't use at all. My ideal would be one that didn't try to do mindmapping but just generated a simple...

SheetPlanner website is live 7/23/2018

Several people suggested that the desktop-first development strategy is realistic. I suppose a lot depends on whether the developer is doing this to make a living or just as a labor of love. If the la...

Other websites for CRIMPing related discussion? 7/22/2018

These are great. Thanks!

I'm happy to hear it, but my experience with apps that didn't start with iOS from the beginning has been very disappointing. I don't understand the technical issues but most apps have delayed planned ...

I just found one, but curious if other members regularly check out other online forums or blogs? https://productivityguild.com/

New forum RSS feed URL 7/21/2018

OK. I was able to fix the problem by adding the url directly to Feedly rather than using the Chrome "add to feedly" function I normally use. Sorry for any confusion, probably an issue with the chrome ...

New forum RSS feed URL 7/21/2018

Sorry, no way to go back and edit that. But I meant to say that the error message was from Feedly. I can see the RSS feed in my browser, but for some reason it won't add it to Feedly as normal..

Looks great, but the lack of an iOS companion app is a no-go for me.

Writer's log 7/17/2018

When you have a large project that needs steady progress over a long period of time, keeping a log or meeting a minimal daily goal is useful for getting one to be productive even on a slow day. With t...

Dynalist gets an API 7/14/2018

A little off topic for this thread but I’ve been able to work around the problem with using Dynalist on my phone (freezing) by just using the mobile web app instead of the “native” a...

Dynalist gets an API 7/13/2018

Even though they haven't fixed the iOS bugs which seem beyond their abilities, the developers have been incredibly responsive about fixing any issues with the web app and usually respond to emails or ...

What is "ugly" software? 7/12/2018

User interface (UX) is not separate from functionality. If a software has an amazing feature but it is hard to use, difficult to find, or implemented poorly due to bad design, then it doesn't really m...

Which "favorite" outliner app would you give up if something better came along 7/7/2018

Well my big issue is the lack of a strong iOS client paired with an equally strong desktop app. I currently use Dynalist, but for some reason they've struggled for a long time to make an iOS app which...

Dynalist gets an API 7/3/2018

More info here: http://blog.dynalist.io/api-beta/ I wonder if the API is powerful enough that someone could build a native iOS app? I suspect not, but it would be great if that were possible!

Edit on iOS -- does one thing and does it right 7/3/2018

Have you tried Drafts? http://getdrafts.com/ It is a similar idea, just a text file - but it combines with powerful scripts to integrate with other apps. Write some text and send it to Bear, 2Do, U...

Former engineer/designer at Facebook to join Workflowy 6/28/2018

Since Dynalist seems unable or unwilling to fix the bugs in their iOS app, I have to hope that Workflowy or Outlinely can get their act together to make a product that is good enough I can replace Dyn...

Why folding? 6/20/2018

I'm personally more interested in "zooming" or "hoisting" than folding. I love being able to zoom in on a part of a document and focus on it to the exclusion of other parts and then be able to zoom ou...
