WHAT'S NEW
Version 1.7.5: - Updated the OmniFocus Clip-O-Tron to be compatible with future updates to Snow Leopard. (When Mail warns you that the old version is no longer compatible, you can reinstall the Clip-O-Tron from Clipping Preferences.)
- Fixed some regressions with the application becoming visible again while using Quick Entry.
- In Snow Leopard's System Preferences, the clippings shortcut (assigned by Clippings Preferences in OmniFocus) should now appear under the Services -> Text section of Keyboard Shortcuts (rather than under the Application Shortcuts section).
- Fixed a crash which happened when independently deleting the same folder on two copies of OmniFocus, then synchronizing the deletes.
- Fixed a crash in the pop-up calendar window on 10.6 (Snow Leopard) which was triggered by pressing the delete key while editing a time.
- Fixed a crash in the Quick Entry window on 10.4 (Tiger) which was triggered by adding or removing a column.
REQUIREMENTS
Mac OS X 10.4 or later.

ALEJANDRO OROZCO Omnifocus is hands down the most complete system for the GTD implementation closely followed by Things. I rely on it on a daily basis. Highly Recommended! (Version 1.7.5) | |

ICONZ113 I've had a chance to use Omnifocus more extensively and this application has far exceeded my expectations. This type of application needs a more thorough analysis before its compared because there are so many features that aren't evident at the start. Thats why first impressions don't really hold weight to me when I read reviews or comparisons with this app. Omnifocus by far is the best task management, todo, application on OSX. Nothing even comes close. If your trying it out and have just tested it for a day, and you already like it, your going to be blown away by the features, functionality, and flexibility. 5 stars. First impressions always lead to the better looking application, but for the people that are serious about getting things done, Omnifocus is the way to go. (Version 1.7.4) | |

LIFESTYLE COACH By far the best app I've tried for applying the GTD system. Omnifocus is extremely flexible, and I like how I can customize it's appearance, and create very simple, focus views. Support via email has been outstanding, and live phone support is a big plus. I nearly bought "Things" and tested both "Things" and "Omnifocus" but Ominfocus for me was the definitive winner.

AMAZON What ever I do NO WAY I can make it sync with iCal ... Very awkward app in compare to other applications. I wonder why people rate this so high ... strange. (Version 1.7.3) | |

ANON BUD Different strokes, I guess. I gave it five stars a while back and continue to find it's the most comprehensive GTD app out there. It's indispensable for my work. I had the odd problem getting it to synch with iCal in the early stages, but it's been doing great since then. (Version 1.7.4) | |

CARLOS-SZ Here is what I know about it: First you need a WebDav account (e.g. MobileMe), set everything in OmniFocus. Finally you have to subscribe to OmniFocus calendar (DueSoon.ics that is in the WebDav account) in iCal. (Version 1.7.4) | |

ANON BUD Actually, I was referring to an earlier problem OF had in synching with iCal todos. That problem has since been resolved. The webdav/mobile me synching is if one wants to have OF todos appear as a separate iCal calendar and is completely different from what I was talking about. Since I do not want a separate OF iCal calendar, I do not use that function. (Version 1.7.4) | |

ANON BUD I've been using OF since it's first beta and have had absolutely no problem in getting the Omni Support Ninjas to respond to my requests for help. And they've been great at sticking with me to find solutions to any difficulties I've encountered. Sorry your experience has not been the same. (Version 1.7.4) | |

ICONZ113 This app blows all this other crap out of the water, not even close, things, hitlist, pfft (Version 1.7.3) | |

TOADLING The tools OmniFocus offers, synchronization, iPhone client, reviewing, outlining, focusing, filtering and sorting, and overall usability make this app the best all-around solution for managing large, complex collections of tasks and projects. I've tried both Things and THL; both are nice apps, well-suited for simple task management. But when trying to deal with *everything* going on in my busy life, all the other apps simply couldn't manage and spiraled out of control. OmniFocus, on the other hand, gives me the tools to stay on top of this mountain of projects. Thank you, Omni Group! (Version 1.7.3) | |

TOADLING Personally, I had no problems with the upgrade, but I can sympathize with your loss. :-) Fortunately, it looks like all the issues have been ironed out in the more recent updates (i.e. 1.7.3). (Version 1.7.3) | |

ANON BUD I've already rated this a Five-Star, so I won't add another rating. OF is just one of the best apps I use. I keep wanting to like Things and The Hit List, but find them to be not nearly as flexible. They may offer better eye candy than OF, but just don't cut it for me in terms of daily use. I find the synching with my iTouch to be excellent and have never had a problem, though it can be a bit slow at times. I especially like that notes transfer in toto from the desktop app to the iPhone app--including html and all attachments. Such a flexible app, configurable in many different ways and really helps me to keep ahead of all my projects and to-dos. (Version 1.6.1) | |
