This will create a new project in the Omnifocus database. If this is the first item in a new project, type in the name of the project in the Project column and then hit Command-Return. I try to estimate the amount of time it will take to complete the item at the time of entry. Using the Quick Entry Box, you can capture a task and process it later, or if you expand the columns of the Quick Entry box (using the gear icon) you can type in the context, start date, etc at the time of entry. There are two ways to do this: (1) launch Omnifocus: Select Inbox: and type in the new Action (remember to frame the new item with a verb) or (2) Launch Omnifocus: select File: select “Quick Entry”: and enter the action.
The least complicated way of entering a task is by manually entering it into the program itself. In this blog entry (and accompanying screencast) I’ll discuss the main ways I get information into Omnifocus.
OMNIFOCUS CLIP O TRON MAC OS
As I mentioned in my last entry, there are versions of Omnifocus available for the Mac OS as well as the IOS–I own them all. To get the most from the program, you must have easy ways to capture data. In my last entry, I spoke about the power of Omnifocus. the addition of other gestures (taps?) that would further enhance the number of customizable processing options.Spark is now my iOS email client of choice. the ability to add actions to swipes (ala Drafts) and 2. My Inbox has remained essentially empty since I started using the App.A few minor suggestions that could make the program even better: 1. I now process 98% of my emails as I read them on the go. Even now, several weeks into my exploration, I continue to find subtle features that really do live up to Readdle's promise to have me “Like Your email Again."Spark has almost completely eliminated the Skimming problem on my phone. The developers paid a great deal of attention to user-interface design. I can’t imagine going back.Spark is one of those apps that is a delight to use. Spark has completely replaced Mail.app on my phone and iPad. I have to say I’ve been incredibly impressed. In a recent post, I saw Brett Kelly ( Website)( Twitter) mention Spark by Readdle and decided to give it a try. One of my favorite features on David Spark’s Web Site is the sharing of user’s home screens. Later, when I returned to my Mac, I often missed the skimmed email because each appeared "read." Unfortunately, until recently, I had not found a suitable solution to this recurrent problem.I am a big fan of Macsparky. Although I’ve been pretty diligent about reading email on the go, a problem I frequently faced was the issue of “skimmed emails”-those emails I read on the go but failed to immediately process. I hope you’ll give Airmail a try.ĮMail is the bane of everyone's existence. This feature alone saved me tons of time when setting the app up on my Mac, iPhone, and iPad.I’ve been incredibly happy with Airmail over the past several months and don’t anticipate this changing. long right swipe-Snooze (message disappears to re-appear at a future time).Īnother nice perk is the ability to synchronize accounts and settings using iCloud.I chose to customize this feature in the following manner: In addition, Airmail supports services (the actions I use most commonly include saving attachments to Evernote or moving an email to an Omnifocus task). Airmail is clean and allows you to get to your emails without interruption - it’s the mail client for the 21st century.īeside the unified experience, I particularly appreciate the ability to customize every aspect of the email experience. Support for iCloud™, MS Exchange, Gmail™, Google™ Apps, IMAP, POP3, Yahoo!™, AOL™, ™, ™Airmail was designed from the ground to retain the same experience with a single or multiple accounts and provide a quick, modern and easy-to-use user experience. I’m glad I did-I’ve used Airmail exclusively as my email client since mid-July.From the Airmail website:Īirmail 3 is a new mail client designed for El Capitan with fast performance and intuitive interaction. Regardless, I decided to check out what had changed in the latest version.When I read the updated features of Airmail along with the promise of a simplified unified experience across all devices, I decided to give it a try.
I had tried an earlier version of Airmail, but was less than impressed.
I used Spark exclusively on iOS for a month.But then, a reader wrote and told me I should check out Airmail by Bloop.
Although Spark wasn’t perfect, I preferred it to the built-in iOS Mail app. I wrote about what I like and disliked in the app. Several months ago I wrote about my discovery of Spark email.
