  • Dearly LOVE this app, but not a recent change…

    Time fails me to describe how much I love and use this app. I regret spending more time here, describing my one complaint, than my thousands of reasons I love this app. However, this complaint is only written in high hopes that it will precipitate a fix from the fantastic Things 3 team. Here’s the problem…. It used to be that when simply moving a task from “Evening” to “Day” or from “Day” to “Evening,” that task would go—very nicely and predictably—to the very top of either of those portions of the list—which aided in task shuffling speed and efficiency (especially for task-heavier days). However, ever since one of the most recent updates, now moving any task from “Evening” to “Day” places that task somewhere at the BOTTOM of “Day” (instead of the top, and even then not always exactly at the bottom—it might be 2nd or 3rd or more from the bottom, with no discernible pattern to this new behavior). On the other hand, more often than not, when moving a task from “Day” to “Evening”; the task does not move to the very top of that portion of the list; but often randomly must be sought for and found within the first 8 to 10 items at the top of that list (again, no clear discernible pattern to this logic, either). If one’s lists were only 20-50 items (light users); this may not matter so much. However, for heavier (power users), who may have hundreds of tasks to prioritizie and timeline each day; this becomes a cumbersome and unnecessary speed bump. Please fix! Long story short, I use this app so much, it is not unusual for me to have 500 to 900+ tasks on a given day. That many tasks require a lot of sorting coupled with a lot of efficiency—or list fatigue becomes impossibly overwhelming! So this new (presumed) glitch, causing this new unpredictability in every-day, simple task moves is not helpful, but detrimental and a drag to productivity. Otherwise, I still LOVE and use Things 3–more than any other app on my devices! As a very heavy user of this app, I humbly feel I have decent feedback on what improves this app, versus what does not. Much gratitude, in advance, to the great Things 3 team, for considering / fixing this unnecessary glitch / problem.
  • Shopping List Magic

    I use this to create my shopping lists, then go through each list as I shop by checking things off on my Apple Watch. It’s so helpful! I keep a separate Project for each store and make a heading for each department, adding emojis next to the heading name to easily find the one I want. The headings are in order according to the layout of the store. I make new To Dos, then drag them below the appropriate heading. After I check one off, I can later find it in the archived items, and if I uncheck in the archive, the item automatically re-appears under the correct heading. This app is genius!

    Things 3 is the best app I’ve ever used. It does exactly what it says it will do, and it’s super simple and easy to use. It syncs seamlessly between my devices, and I even switched from Windows to Mac just so I could use Things 3 as my project management tool. But, I do wish they’d add a few more features. Things is probably the only app I wish was subscription-based because I’d love to see a faster development cycle. Cultured Code spends way too much time making things perfect. I often feel frustrated by the lack of features that would make my life easier, like the ability to attach images or files, a kanban view, a more robust time-blocking feature, or saved searches or smart lists. Honestly, I think they need an API so that it integrates with other apps better. I’m sure Cultured Code has already decided what kind of workflow they want to support with Things, but there aren’t any other apps that I’ve found with more features that can deliver the user experience that Things delivers. So, I always end up coming back to it, even though I have to do some complicated workarounds to do things to link files or notes. Oh, and as long as I’m on the subject, I’d love to see the team at Cultured Code release more apps. Imagine a mail app, calendar, or note-taking app designed by them! In short, I love this app, and I really love Cultured Code. I just wish they’d be a bit more ambitious because they make the best stuff. I’d love to buy more things from them.

  • No support for images

    Todo items can have notes attached. However, often I have annotated photos that document what I need to do on a job. In this app I can’t attach those images, which makes it hard to track work I have to do. I wish they would add an image attachment feature.
  • Good Idea, Bad Implementation

    I really wanted to like this app but it’s too primitive for its own good. You can’t do things like organize projects into sub-groups. (If you can’t it’s not clear how to do it). Moving things in-and-out of the various timeline options is not intuitive. You can’t drag and drop. The watch app only shows things to do that day. I had a whole shopping list prepared but lost all the data. The logbook is supposed to retain a copy but for some reason it didn’t. I’m not sure why it has such high ratings because it’s a half-baked app. Could be great, but not ready for prime time.

    I started using Things years ago, and have purchased it for every device and never regretted it. Love the way that it syncs with the Apple calendar, love the different options for organization, scheduling, etc., and absolutely love the clean UI. A bit pricey initially, but honestly a life saver. Use it constantly in university, and would recommend it to anyone.
