IвЂ™m guessing IвЂ™m not the only user to feel that way. In OmniFocus 2 I never used contexts the way they were intended, and as such it always felt like I was missing out on the way the app was supposed to be used. OmniFocus 3 replaces contexts with tags, which are mostly identical in function, but even with just a name change, they now feel much more modern and less a fundamental part of how the app works. Gone are the days of contexts вЂ“ a carry-over from David AllenвЂ™s Getting Things Done methodology. In that vein, many of OmniFocus 3вЂ™s biggest features focus on enabling the app to morph to your needs. The more flexible a task management system, the more likely it will work for a broad base of users. Outside of a lovely new design, where icons and fonts are bolder and everything feels more fresh, my favorite changes in OmniFocus 3 are this increased flexibility, which encompasses a lot of new and updated features, and its excellent iPad improvements. In more ways than ever before, OmniFocus provides the tools to make the app your own. This improved user friendliness is achieved thanks to a new level of flexibility that can, upon tweaking your ideal setup, obscure the appвЂ™s complexity in everyday use. OmniFocus 3, released today for iOS (and later coming to the Mac), adds even more power and options to the appвЂ™s existing toolset, yet rather than growing more complex in the process, itвЂ™s surprisingly become more approachable. On this complexity spectrum, OmniFocus has historically been the poster child for the weightier end: if you have a lot of complicated projects that need a high degree of structure, thereвЂ™s no better place to start than OmniFocus however, for lighter needs, IвЂ™ve always found its myriad of options too overwhelming to recommend. Some aim to remain simple and user-friendly, while others try to put every tool at your disposal, endearing themselves to power users while scaring off prospective customers who need a bit less. Task management is a tough problem to solve, because every option out there is optimized for specific use cases, resulting in different complexity levels. Realistically though, youвЂ™ve resigned yourself to the fact that the вЂњperfect task managerвЂќ doesnвЂ™t exist, and likely never will. You may have chosen an app and settled in with it, but some of its design choices donвЂ™t quite fit with your way of working, so youвЂ™re always keen to try the latest and greatest app that comes along. With storage space being so cheap these days it's no big deal to leave dead wood like Reminders laying around - as long as it doesn't have any security holes.If youвЂ™re anything like me, you probably remain perpetually dissatisfied with your task management setup. I imagine Apple doesn't even have a team working on it.

It does so little, as far as I can tell it does not even integrate with Calendar. I love Apple, but Reminders seems like an ugly wart that should have been excised or replaced two or three iOS/macOS versions ago. Seeing what tools like OmniFocus are able to do also reminds me of how pathetic Apple's own Reminders app really is.

Android support is good to have as well, and web support is always a backstop if there is no native app available for a supported operating system. I always shoot for Windows, Mac, Linux, and iOS compatibility.

Cross platform access is a big deal for me. But for smaller projects, agile teams, personal/home projects, and to-do lists I've found Trello (and comparable tools that can scale to support team collaboration) are often good enough and at least worth trialing. If you're doing commercial construction, aerospace/military projects, medical systems, etc., I'm sure the bigger ticket tools are essential. The end result from a productivity and delivery standpoint doesn't appear to be much different and the lightweight tools seem to fit the agile approach somewhat better. After years of using complex and highly integrated tools for prioritizing, managing, and scheduling work, e.g., MS Project, Microsoft TFS, I've seen the pendulum swing back the other way towards very simple and low overhead Kanban oriented tools like whiteboards (with Post-Its as needed), Trello, and Slack. OmniFocus is undoubtedly a very powerful GTD oriented tool for folks who have to manage a lot of complexity in their daily lives.
