BEWARE Installing Hazel 3 will destroy all of your Hazel 2 settings. Restoring from Time Machine does not work. You will need to start over from scratch to reconfigure Hazel, if you can remember what you had in place under Hazel 2.
For an independent contractor this is a perfect app for collecting task and time information from iCal to prepare client billings. It is simple, does exactly what it promises to do, and isn't cluttered with excess features. Very good value for money.
Used this for years. Every time I think "I'd like a menubar utility that does that ..." I open the You Control configuration and voilĂ - You Control can do that. Saved me much money from avoiding buying other apps and cluttering the menu bar.
Release 1.4.1 makes massive strides in performance. Scans a database almost instantaneously - compared to the minutes-long scans in prior releases. Good job, Soma Zone!
This app and its corresponding iPad app is messed up. It is complex, badly documented, and needlessly difficult to use. Synchronization with Dropbox should be straight forward, but isn't. Cannot save the Dropbox login credentials, and so need to log in every time (the app emits a failure message but doesn't offer to log in for you), and a new sync folder is created on Dropbox with each log in. This in turn messes up the related Mac desktop app which cannot figure out what folders to synchronize with and will not synchronize with docs changed on the iPad. There is a confusing array of options, preferences, preference panels, and so on. Lots of help files, but none of them seem to correspond to what the app is actually doing. Docs can be uploaded to Dropbox, but not downloaded. Have to shut down this app, then open the iPad Dropbox app (separate; free) to access files, then reopen this app. Of course by then the app has forgotten your Dropbox credentials and you are back in the circular loop trying to figure out what's going on. It's a great idea that looks to have been implemented by a developer who doesn't understand user interfaces and how to make standard iPad apps. Why Apple approved this one for release in the App Store before it was finished is another problem.
In release 5 the Save PDF to VoodooPad action in the print dialog doesn't seem to do anything - the PDF never makes it to a VooddooPad document. Is there a limitation on the kinds of content that works with this?
