STEVEN GOODHEART There's kind of a nice human story here. Check out: "Welcome Bartek! Welcome iGTD Users" http://culturedcode.com/things/blog/2009/08/welcome-bartek-welcome-igtd-users.html "[Bartek] also requested that we give free Things licenses to everyone who donated to iGTD, and we were very happy to oblige! Everyone who donated will receive an email with one or more free Things licenses, making sure that the value of licenses will exceed the amount of money donated." Although I'm a happy registered user of OmniFocus, I have to say that the new Things 1.2, which already reflects some of Bartek's magic, is very tempting. With someone as talented and innovative as Bartek joining Cultured Codes fine programmers, the future of Things looks bright. I'm going to keep an eye on it in the future. (Version 1.4.5.7) | |

JRWHO I just tried out the version 2 alpha, and I must say that I am really disappointed. I heard a ton of hype about this app to see that it's not very easy to use and has a clumsy, non-OS X like interface. I'd take Mail's Notes and To Dos over this any day. (Version 1.4.5.6) | |

MACBLISS The interface may seem a little busy at first, but it grows on you after playing around with it a bit. Once you understand how it is designed to work -- you see how indeed very smart it is. With version 2 you get a built in outliner/project manager and note/link manager. It's the most comprehensive and most ambitious application out there in the genre, and it's free, which is something amazing in and of itself. With the built in contact linking system, It can also be used as a light weight CRM too. It seems quite usable in the latest alpha. I am looking forward to its continued evolvement. Also note it's going to have a new name which is on the horizon, according to requests on the forum for user feedback. (Version 1.4.5.6) | |

ANON BUD Good potential, but too buggy IMHO: 1) All my completed tasks mysteriously disappeared and I can no longer refer to them. 2) Doesn't carry over all fields, esp date due from MailTags. 3) Quirks with contact names. 4) Can't subordinate tasks to other tasks. 5) Doesn't always import bodies of e-mails as it should. 6) No alarms But it's free and does a good job of keeping tasks organized. It also works well with Mail and MailTags (given the above caveat). (Version 1.4.5.5) | |

STEELIE Overall, I love this application... Im still relatively new to it so Im sure Im not using it to its full potential. Still, I cant believe how many more little tasks Ive been able to keep on top of since using this gem. My only frustration with the application lies with the context folders and sub-folders. There should be an option to create folders that wont generate their own @Calendar. Similar to Calendar Groups in iCal, where you cannot add tasks or events to the Group as they are merely for organization of information. Im not a programer so, Im not sure how easy any of this would be to implement. However, in my humble opinion, the contextless folders should carry over as Calendar Groups in iCal, bringing all individual contexts along them. Creating a folder in iGTD that will not act like a folder in iCal is frustrating. (Version 1.4.5.1) | |

OLDCORPSE Your comment was to put it diplomatically "not clever" for one very simple reason: the whole methodology of GTD of David Allen is context dependent. That's a major aspect of the system. Since iGTD is based on Allen's GTD system it *must* have contexts. You may not find use for them, but to call the presence of this feature in iGTD "stupid" is itself extremely stupid - it's only doing what the GTD system says it *should* be doing - if you have a problem with that, bring it up with David Allen. (Version 1.4.2.1) | |

 | Jun 1 2007 |
CHRIS REED Beware pmoshay!. Maybe the Context Police will be sent out by Mr Allen to investigate why you lack the required contextual diversity to do 'proper' GTD. Maybe, judging by OldCorpse's reponse, they are on to you already. All fleas have little fleas upon their back to bite 'em, and little fleas have smaller fleas and so ad infinitum. Brother! Don't be a flea, live context free. (Version 1.4.2.1) | |

OLIPOWER I'm with this guy on this one. I've been on/off GTD since 2004, and also used iGTD, but even though my life is busy and complicated and therefore totally on target for David Allen's advice, I find GTD to be way too much effort to do, in order to have a "mind like water" as David describes perfect flow. Real "mind like water" according to zen buddhism, which is at the root of karate philosophy, is something else: You try to calm your mind, do what's at hand, trust your mind (not your "collection bucket" / inbox or PDA) just as it is, and overall be in the moment. Not be in some mac app, deferring, delegating, someday maybe, whatever, this, that, being frantic. GTD is good, but a concept to grasp, and then move on. A great book on that is marc Lesser's ZBA, Zen of Business Administration. Cheesy title, yet the best book I've ever read, and the one I'd keep if I could only keep one book. If I could keep two, I'd also keep Hagakure, the book of the samurai. It really outlines the concept of true productivity, right effort, and a whole lot else. All that being said, iGTD is a good app, and a good not too rigid implentation of GTD. I'm happy using Daylite now. A huge app, but it sure does simplify my life, because it is so flexible. (Version 1.4.2.1) | |
 | Jun 1 2007 |
OLDCORPSE Nobody is telling anybody to do GTD. Nobody is saying GTD is good, or bad or indifferent. Nobody is saying there are or are not better time management methodologies out there. Nobody is saying you can't do GTD your own way, or the orthodox David Allen way. What I am saying is that IF you are commenting on a GTD app, then you can't act surprised that iGTD implements - SHOCK - GTD! Kinda logical, no? That's all. And GTD involves contexts. If that doesn't work for you, or if GTD doesn't work for you or whatever else you have a problem with - that has NOTHING to do with an *application that's trying to facilitate GTD*, so deal. If you have a specific complaint that it does *not* implement GTD correctly - that's a valid complaint. What is not valid, is to criticize it for implementing a GTD key concept just because GTD doesn't work for you - that's just stupid... it's not a problem with a iGTD app, it's a problem (_for you_) with GTD, and this is not the place to complain about *that* - take that up with David Allen, I don't care. (Version 1.4.2.1) | |

SLOB I have to add to the stars here - this really is the gtd app to use right now. For example, synchronizing with iCal is now even better - you can change the pref to 'sync with flagged items' and cut down a full todo list to something more practical when isyncing to your phone. No stability issues at all. Simple but comprehensive customization options, a good range of prefs, and it looks good too (ok, the icons could use some pro input..) - but this is a 5 star app all the way. I've become a lot more cautious with paying for software over time but donated with this update ($20) and consider that a fine deal, and the developer is obviously putting a lot of good work into iGTD. Go for it. (Version 1.4.1.1) | |

SEK Fantastic! Works as advertised and very stable so far. This program is the best of the GTD programs I've seen as far as inuitive ease of use. I jumped right in and can set up projects, contexts and tasks very quickly. I feel myself getting more organized every day. Two features would make this nearly perfect: the ability to delegate (preferably to someone in my address book with a link to their info) and the ability to add a link to a project and not just a task. I don't know how that would work at the UI level, but sometimes I want to link an entire directory to a project without linking each file within that directory to a specific task.

SKYHORSE This is an incredible application. I've used commercial products of this type for years, am familiar with most of them, and migrated to this one for Monday morning this week. In the week since, I've worked literally hundreds of items (I run HR systems operations for a U.S. Federal agency with dozens of facilities around the world), and use this application as the core of my operations management as I did its predecessors. It is clearly the best of the lot. It has the highest information density (most data in the least space) I've seen--and doesn't seem to slow down with volume of data, at least so far. I'm tracking numerous projects and contexts with it, and it's done very well for me. I had tested it over the last couple of weeks and had data disappear on me, but the (near) daily updates have apparently taken care of that, as I've lost nothing since (I back up regularly regardless). I have top notch developers of my own, but I can't imagine how IGTD's developer has the time to do the incredible amount of work each of these versions entails. How many people are working on this thing, anyhow? One added feature I'd love to see given the fact that I track not only my own work but tasks I assign others in this is a category for Assigned To, so I could sort by Context, Project, or Assigned To. It would make this a good management tool as well as personal task tracker then. I write a PDF of the completed items at the end of the week to archive separately as completed actions, so it would be helpful there to have a category for Assigned To as well. I'd also like to have the option to be able to archive structured data (say a week's worth of completed tasks) similarly in the event that I needed to retrieve information on something done in past months or years though, since I expect to be using this application for years to come. That way I could delete them and not eventually clog the database. If they were accessible separately (even as text, and not in the regular IGTD DB), that would be best as I could put a retrieved item next to current status on the screen. A truly exceptional product by an exceptionally talented, productive, and responsive developer. This is the kind of software that literally drops Window users' jaws, and makes it a joy to be using a Mac. (Version 1.3.5) | |

CHRIS REED A great little app that has genuinely helped me 'get things done'. Developer is responsive and the app is moving on but not becoming over engineered. It is in cocoa which makes it integrate easy with mac apps (similar apps are java), it doesn't require you to organise things how it wants, it is fast to input, uses drag and drop and keyboard shortcuts and integrates seemlessly with iCal. I use it with iCal, MenuCalenderClock and my Blackberry and it forms a hub to link these all together, in the office and out. THIS IS WHAT MAC APPS/DEV ARE ALL ABOUT. (Version 1.3.3) | |

ALANR I've looked at or tried several GTD apps and this is the best by a long shot. This latest version with Smart Folders implemented is very significant. With some small enhancements to the Smart Folders (Date Range, Priorities, for example) the possibilities of the app seem endless. I think Bartek should find an alternative (non PayPal) method for accepting contributions. (Version 1.3.2) | |

SNOZDOP You obviously haven't looked for viable alternatives to PayPal. Almost all want a hefty monthly fee, which for a Free product could easily wipe out a whole months donations in one go. PayPal also allows non PayPal account holders to pay via a credit/debit card without signing up. So is probably the most widely, and easily implemented payment solution. Yes, its not perfect, and not all countries can pay via PayPal (even with a credit card). But without the developer having to pay out money, its possibly the only option... (Version 1.3.4.1) | |

WPDV I am most impressed with the simplicity of iGTD, and its integration with AddressBook and iCal. The developer has been extremely responsive to ideas and feature requests. For 22 years now I have used macs to run my business, I can count on one hand the applications I really enjoy using, iGTD is one of them. iGTD is maturing rapidly. There are certainly kinks to work out, some polish to add, but it is stable enough to use now. Keep an eye on this developer. You will see great things from this young man. | |

HENRIKTEKNIK I have a request for iGTD: - An option to not show iGTD in the Dock and Application Switcher. In my opinion, there is no reason to show it there, since it already (and quite conveniently) resides in the status menu bar. Having it in the Dock/App Switcher makes is somewhat redundant and "in the way", so to speak. I know there is a tool called Dockless, which can do what I want, but I really prefer not to use that program, since it's buggy and appears to be abandoned as a program. (Version 1.3.1.1) | |

STRANDMAT I just started looking into this GTD application (1.3.1) .... but "wow" would be an understatement. Congratulations! After spending time with ThinkingRock, Midnight Inbox and OmniOutliner+KinklessGTD - iGTD actually is the only one that feels right. I must admit I'm not yet ready to transfer all from Omni into iGTD, but I'll start doing it for a particular project and see how it works out. You've already won the hearts. Nice work!!

SURFSURF iGTD looks very nice, congratulations to the author. There are some bugs though that let me go argh. In projects view, you cannot change the priority of a task by clicking on the numbers. When searching in the included address book view results in one contact only, clicking on the contact will not transfer that name to the task. You have to delete the search term or make it wider so that it matches more than one contact, then you can click on the name again to transfer it to the task. The app beeps on my for every letter I type into the tags or contacts field. Is this a hint of a forthcoming completion for these fields (Version 1.3) | |

When you create a new task and tab into the "Due" field, selecting a date in the date picker will not show the selected date until you unfocus the "Due" field. Question: What are tags for? Will there be a way to filter by tag or something? Sorting of tasks: When I have a task with no due date (e.g. a "maybe" one) it will be sorted in the "To complete" list above tasks with due dates when sorting by due date. In "To complete" view, sorted by due date. Select a task with a due date. The due date will be marked gray in the date picker. Double click the due date of the task and delete it. The old date is still gray in the picker. Clicking the old, gray due date in the date picker will not select the date. Same setup, double click the due date, press delete, select a date from the picker, click on another task to finish -> new due date will not be picked up. Big wishlist: Mark an task as recurring every $SOMETHING (as in iCal), so that marking it complete it will just change its due date to the new date. Hope this helps in making iGTD even more polished. (Version 1.3) | |
 | Apr 1 2007 |
wow, thanks for these reports. some comments: 1. selecting from AB after filtering to ONE record - true! it doesn't work because iGTD waits for changes of selection - and there can be no selection change if there's only one record shown... will try to fix that. in 1.3.1 I've just added the autocompletion in contacts field, it may be helpful until I remove the bug 2. Changing priority in projects tab - fixed! get 1.3.1 release 3. "The app beeps on my for every letter I type into the tags or contacts field. " - puh, got no idea what it can be... gotta think about it. 4. Calendar problems - known bugs. Trying to fix it! 5. Recurring tasks - of course, they will be in the next release - till next Saturday! (Version 1.3) | |

BARTEK BARGIEL forgot two issues: 1. sorting with due dates - I know about the problem, I don't like this behaviour too and am currently trying to investigate the problem. 2. tags - current concept is only for tagging and searching by tags. There will be next concept using tags but it will be implemented in next 2-3 weeks. Hope it's gonna be a small revolution... :-) You can currently search by tags by just clicking the drop down menu in search field and selecting 'Find by tag'. If you can't find it, go to http://bargiel.home.pl/iGTD/ and scroll down to the bottom of the page - there's a screenshot available. (Version 1.3) | |

SURFSURF Wow, you are the best! :-) I have another wishlist item you might consider: Making syncing of "maybe" task with iCal optional to reduce clutter. That way, I can see what is up next in e.g. a ToDo widget without the "consider sometime" items. (Version 1.3) | |

This way i.e. you get the most important tasks synced to your phone :-) (Version 1.3) | |

BARTEK BARGIEL well, I guess you're right. BUT have a look on the Pending tab. You can use to project. So that's why I added support to in Contexts tab. beeping: I'll be glad for your help :-) delete/backspace: you're right! will be fixed in next fix release! thanks! (Version 1.3.1) | |

SURFSURF I see, good reason for both . I would be happy if I could map the ">" function to another key, as using shift+< is rather uncomfortable. If you could add both functions to the menu, I could do that via the system preference. (Version 1.3.1) | |

PHALERON I think iGTD is shaping up quite, and the developer seems to be diligent and hard-working. I have had a couple of complains for a while but have waited, hoping to see them fixed in the interim. They are: 1. The application "calls home" upon startup without warning, or a preference setting to turn it off. 2. I have never been able to use the "link" field, whether to insert a URL, or a local file path. The field is just not clickable. (Version 1.3) | |

Link field - yeah, I know, I have to: - add some more interaction to it - currently only dragging a new link (Safari link/file) on the existing task adds a link to this task; I will implement pasting the URLs directly into the link field - and also allow pasting copied tasks into the field - allow to drag links onto the link field directly - not only on the tasks (Version 1.3) | |

BARTEK BARGIEL sorry for no export feature yet - it will surely be there. btw: don't forget that if you REALLY want to get your data back NOW... then just make all your contexts synchronizable to iCal, do a sync - and there they are: your tasks in iCal. another possibility is: go to "To complete" tab, select all tasks and press Cmd+C. This will copy your tasks as plain text - with names, task notes and URLs. hope I helped :-) thanks your comment! (Version 1.3) | |

HENRIKTEKNIK Here's a wicked (?) thought: How about Jon and Bartlomiej (Actiontastic / iGTD developers respectively) teamed up? Instead of working on two different (and free) apps, intended for the same purpose. I'm certainly not a GTD boffin, but to me, the concept and layout of Actiontastic and iGTD do not look too divergent. Still, of course, I somehow realize why there would be an understandable reason not to consolidate these projects, judging from the developers' standpoints. I'm not sure how easy it would be to just let go of (or reform beyond recognition) something that one spent countless sleepless hours to come up with... Just a thought (or wish, I should say). I find the idea especially intriguing, since it would be great to see something truly potential, yet free/donationware, hold its ground against the forthcoming GTD app (habanero) cooking at OmniGroup's.

This is not highly important, but the application icon appears to be a little jagged around the edges. On your website, there's a .png version of the icon, that is a lot smoother. You can easily convert .png's to .icns icons with for instance, Iconverter (available on MacUpdate). | |

MACUPDATE ADMIN If you were referring to the icon displayed on the MacUpdate product page for iGTD, you're right, it was a little jagged. I just now went to the dev's site, dragged 'n dropped the icon on that page to my desktop and upped it to the iGTD product page here. Looks a bit better now, you may need to force-reload the MacUpdate iGTD page (hold down the shift key while clicking on your browser's reload button, may need to do this twice) to see the new icon.

ESPIRIDION Its great to have another software alternative for incorporating GTD. I have nothing but praise for the author. He is very responsive and is providing this useful application for Mac users, and not charging a dime. I think that eventually people will be able to donate. Regarding the software itself, its NOT a good GTD implementation IMO, and heres why: 1. The interface is not fool-proof It allows many mistakes. For example, I placed 2 tasks in my Inbox. Both are emails I need to write. I have to select my @Email context, but pressing the Up or Down Arrow processes and closes the task without warning and without allowing me to enter any other information, such as Priority (which by the way I seldom use). While this was only a brief test, Im not comfortable with using the program when Im dealing with dozens of tasks, dozens of contexts, and a handful of projects. A slip of the finger and its time to go and look for the task. Not to mention that accidentally hitting Delete will remove the item without any confirmation. 2. Entering information is time consuming. I would prefer a drop-down list with my contexts and projects. Instead, I have to navigate through all my projects and contexts in order to choose the appropriate one. Again, this is not a big deal with just a few projects and contexts, but for me its very inconvenient. 3. No option regarding Delegated items. 4. No option for Waiting For items 5. No reporting options. Lets say that I want to see all the tasks I delegated to Joe Schmoe, related to project X. Or that I want a printout of all the items I have pending with my boss. I downloaded the first version of this program and before I got to try it 3 new versions had come out. I think that labeling the software as beta or release candidate would be a better option. In GTD it is imperative that you have a system you can trust. This is NOT such a system. At least not yet. I waited until now to try 1.1.3 and based on the previous review I expected to be impressed. Im not. Perhaps this will eventually be a great application, and I wish the author all the luck in the world. Ill keep on using ThinkingRock, which is what I always do after trying GTD software. That one has been the only one Ive used that truly follows Allens approach and enables me to actually Get Things Done. (Version 1.1.3) | |

BARTEK BARGIEL Regarding 'waiting for' and 'delegated' - you're totally right: - 'waiting for' will be implemented quite soon - 'delegated' will be implemented as soon as I finish integrating my app with Mac OS X Address Book Processing and reviewing of tasks is a feature which I implemented yesterday - and it will surely change its behavior. That's why I really do appreciate such comments like your one! Reports of any kind will be implemented as smart lists, similar to other Mac OS solutions (that's my primary goal) - you will be able to choose any conditions describing the tasks, get a report and eventually save it for future. Printing - will be later, that's a bigger issue. Thanks again for your feedback. (Version 1.1.3) | |

GAOSHAN Generally I expect version 1.x software releases to be ready to roll. If you have a bunch of features/bugfixes/etc you should make them all and then release.

Just some advice for you. (Version 1.1.3) | |

BARTEK BARGIEL I guess it depends... you can A: ignore an app if you don't like it and think to yourself 'oh no, another release... can you please stop, Mr Dev??' or B: belong to the group of users of this app who sent some ideas to the developer and are waiting for their implementation. So - I could actually announce smaller updates on my website (which would stop bothering you with this small label 'iGTD X.Y.Z' on the MacUpdate start page ;-)... and put only the major releases to MacUpdate.

MACUPDATE ADMIN It is our raison d'etre. Our mission. Whenever a software is released, whether it is brand new, an update to an existing software, whatever, we want to be the first to post it. We have a 'harvest' mechanism which runs as a cron job many many times a day and it generates reports for human eyes to decipher, we find many if not most updates this way. And, of course, many developers submit their software/updates to us via our software submission system. By the way, anyone can use our software submission system. Example: If a MacUpdate user finds an app that we don't have, that user can submit it to MacUpdate, and it is quite easy to do. (Version 1.1.3) | |

SCOTT WINKLEBLECK Bargiel is working on a truly magical piece of software. Each update brining smarter implementation of David Allen's GTD method. I've tried all the GTD apps on MacUpdate and none filled all my needs. It seemed like all were about 75% of what I need. Some had features that others did not, some did things better than others, but no one really owned the show. I think iGTD passes them all, and is not slowing down. Some may be prettier or flashier, or have that one cool thing it does, but from start to finish, iGTD hits every mark. Future updates may bring a prettier interface, but that is the last of my worries. I want an app that wows me with what is does, not how it looks. Never have I had such a great relationship with a developer of software that will vastly improve my day to day work flow. Thank you Bargiel for your commitment to a great application I understand that you started off "to have some fun with Mac OS/Cocoa programming" but you far exceeded that. do yourself a favor and use this app, grow with it, don't be discouraged by the amount of updates this week, I have had no problems upgrading to each, and look forward to the things I'll find in it.

CLETUS This is a wonderful piece of software. I have tried a lot of other "GTD" software and always dumped them as one spent so much time entering information, it was more time consuming than the purpose it was meant for. While there are still things being added to this, and I myself have suggested some items, it is definitely useable just as is. This does it all! I never was going to even the Omni "No it's not vaporware, but its not available either" GTD app because it is probably expensive. Too many alternative coming out right and left and for free. iGTD may be the one that draws the hanger ons and waiters from Omni. The developer is responsive. Syncing works without a hitch with iCal, and for once, you do not have to spend time learning it. Simple to use. Truly Mac interfaced. I mean it just works, and if it doesn't you submit a recommendation. And of course it is free. Something the developer may wish to change. (Version 1.0.9.1) | |

GREGSGRAPHICS There is a GREAT need in my opinion for a GOOD piece of software to easily and efficiently implement the GTD methodology. Right now, there is really only one as far as I've found. I tried kGTD and found out about all the bugs and inconsistencies that their forum was filled with. I am currently using ThinkingRock (http://www.macupdate.com/info.php/id/22449). If it had a 'real' Mac UI, it would be just about perfect. I wish I discovered it before dropping $70 on OmniOutliner Pro (not to discount that app itself). This program (it seems) allows you to get all of your contexts, projects, and tasks listed... now what? There's nothing after that. If I finish an action, I want it to go away to a completed area or tab. Then, the app should show me what's next. I should be able to go to a calendar day (iCal syncing?) and say, "OK, what am I knocking out today?" Anyway, this app is a good start. I will be keeping an eye on it. As far as it being a complete GTD package though, it's not ready for prime time. (Version 1.0.2) | |

BARTEK BARGIEL Thank you for your comment. The "Completed" tab is a quite interesting concept, as you can see you can mark your actions as done so I may implement moving done actions to the Completed area. Regarding the iCal syncing and the "Calendar Day" view with actions - I guess it's not exactly compatible with iGTD methodology... Your next actions are not assigned to any particular date - if you have any task for any particular day it should be placed in iCal directly. But I may think about adding a new feature: to choose an exact date for a task (it will be placed in iCal as an event) or to choose a due date (task will be placed in iCal as To Do). Anyway please do not forget it is the 1.0.x release -there's much to do... and I'm really focused on end-user's feedback. So please feel free to e-mail all your ideas and suggestions to igtd@bargiel.home.pl (Version 1.0.2) | |
