RATTI  I am a bit late, because version 1.4.2 is out for some time now. My previous comment was about the beta of 1.4. Now, after using it for quite some time, I can say it is working solid form me. While the was buggy in every corner, the developer made an, knowing the past of this app, astonishing progress.

I also have worked with TheHitList and like the tab feature where you can add notes or pictures to an item. On the other hand I Iike the automatisms of Inbox and the organization.

In my opinion nor Inbox neither TheHitList is the better progamme, because they work in too different ways to make an objective statement. It depends on you, what works best.

Everybody searching for an application that helps organizing to make stuff up, should try Inbox. Of cause there are also other apps lto try, like ThinkingRock...

ANG  The hit list is by far better  
(Version 1.4)

RATTI  It would be a nice program if it worked. The new beta version still does not really work.

F451  If you have been following Midnight's blog you will learn that Version 2 is being developed. It looks pretty exciting.

SHOCKERSPAZ  the app has promise, my gripe is there seem to be some bugs in the workflow that render this app completely useless. For instance, if you have it collect iCal events it does so from metadata and uses the time stamp on the metadata file for reference. The flaw there is that the date reflects any change to that file (like say Entourage parsing of it) and then every event there get "collected" into Inbox (you suddenly have hundreds of events from the last 3 years!). second there seems to be a loop in to-do processing and syncing. When you choose to have items in your Inbox sync with iCal those same items get "collected" as new to-do's. Then they sync with iCal and get "collected" again! You can see how very soon productivity is out the door and all your doing is trying to keep up with the hundreds of redundant events and to-do's Inbox has collected, anything you may actually have to do is buried the mess!

Further more it seems that there is some issue with deleting collected items in Inbox and then trying to empty the apps trash. 4 out of 5 times that crashes the app.

GEORGEDONNELLY  Don't give these people your email address. I made this mistake and now they send me spam regularly. Their emails provide no way to unsubscribe. I manually requested unsubscription once already, but they did not respect my requests and continue to spam me. I never buy from spammers and recommend you do not either.  
(Version 1.2)

DENNISB1  This is much improved since it's first release.  
(Version 1.1.5)

ACTUEL  I have been using the latest 1.1.4 and have been very pleased. the last 2 weeks i've been testing iGTD, kinkless, Actiontastic and the last few days Inbox.

Maybe the recent version is more stable then prior version folks are moaning about. So far zero stability issues and no crashes on my macbook pro running 10.4.8. I have no problem recomending this software to anyone.

i hope to continue to see more development. Additionally, more documentation and possible videocast covering the depth of this app would have been nice. I have managed to find my way around but it takes a minute to understand the hierarchical structure.

i'd say Midnight Inbox and iGTD are clear winners in my finding so far.   
(Version 1.1.4)

CHRISXXX  I spent hours, days, weeks trying Inbox out over the last few months. I wanted it to work for me, looked for work-arounds for all the repeatable crashes, the bugs and inconsistencies and strange behaviour (you never know what Inbox is really meant to do, as there is not documentation - it may be a bug, it may be a feature)

I was never able to put it to any serious use. Too buggy, too unpredictable.

It looks very nice, and typographically it is well done; the developer may be a real artist, as a developer, he is an unexperienced amateur, to put it mildly.

Beauty can be the icing on an otherwise nice cake; here it is wasted on a wrotten core.

As to the price, it is simply pathetic, this is at best donation ware, no more.

I have been following Inbox from the very beginning, when the developer started to blog about it, to the first release, called a beta when it was not even alpha quality, to 1.0 to 1.1 and a couple of bug fix releases within days of 1.1 which - as usual - was announced during weeks as coming in the next few days and praised as the release to end all bugs and make everybody happy.

And now - again - the developer seems to be completely taken by surprise that once more so any bugs are showing up. He seems immune to learning from past experience - so expect more of the same...

... and save your time and money.  
(Version 1.1.3)

NDR42  After some time of watching I bought the program. For my use it is now stable and does what I want it to. I like the workflow very much.

One problem persists: syncing with iCal. But there are now frequent updates so I think it will resolved soon.
