OMNIFOCUS FOR WINDOWS FULL
We don’t yet have an editable inspector like on iOS, but each section can be collapsed, and you have full editing capabilities available.
OMNIFOCUS FOR WINDOWS MAC
You can show or hide it by clicking the i button in the right-hand side of the menu, and it looks very similar to the Mac application. The inspector lives on the right side of the screen, and is where you can edit projects, tasks, or tags in true detail. This works just like the Mac, with groups of tags or folders for projects being collapsable so you can hide what you don’t need. The sidebar has two sections: the vertical menu to select which area of the application you wish to use, and the secondary area (not available in the inbox) which lets you focus on projects or tags, depending on which view you’re in. The colours of these buttons change depending on which view you’re in, so in the flagged view they’re orange, and in the tags view they’re purple. InboxĪcross the top we have a menu bar which takes its cue from the iOS version of the app, including a sync button, the ability to collapse the sidebar, customise view options, clean up, undo, redo, new task, new inbox item, and the inspector. With OmniFocus for the Web being a brand new product and version 1.0, today’s release is limited to certain basic features for now.
Sign up is done through the iOS or Mac applications - which means payment runs through Apple’s subscription service. You can either pay for access to the web component separately, or if you don’t own OmniFocus on another platform you might choose to go with the complete subscription package, which includes the iOS, Mac, and web applications for the length of your subscription. OmniFocus for the Web is intended as a companion product you need either the Mac or iOS version of OmniFocus 3 in order to use it. OmniFocus for the Web is a brand new product that makes the most of the web platform to allow you to manage your tasks on any computer – be that Windows, Linux, or a Mac. The web is a ubiquitous platform – it’s everywhere, the framework behind much of what we interact with, and something we nearly always have access to. Many people started with paper notebooks or index cards, and nowadays we have iPhones and iPads that can go with us everywhere, and even Apple Watches that can be independent devices if we need them to be. The best task manager you can have is the one that’s always with you, no matter which device you’re using.
