When you first launch OmniFocus for iPad, you can start from scratch or set up Sync to keep your iPad up to date with OmniFocus on your Mac, iPhone, or iPod touch. It's simple to maintain one task management database across several devices with any of our several options for syncing wirelessly.
Tap Quick Entry (or the plus button) to add items to your inbox, as quickly as you think of them. The inbox is where you can collect miscellaneous thoughts on the fly until you're ready to process and organize them. If you already know where something needs to be saved, Quick Entry lets you organize everything into folders and projects as you go.
Tap the Info button next to an item to add details to a task. Assign start and due dates, repeating task schedules, or attach audio notes or photos from your library. Sort your actions into projects and folders, and organize everything by context. Now you've got a number of powerful ways to view your data and decide what you need to do next.
OmniFocus lets you selectively view tasks that are relevant to your work mode, so if you want to see all "Phone" related tasks in order to sit down and make some calls, just tap the Phone context in your OmniFocus document. With OmniFocus for iPad's new simplified Map, it's easy to see the available actions that are closest to you. When you're ready to buy groceries, OmniFocus for iPad can show you the closest grocery store and its associated shopping list.
A tap of the finger shows you where and what you need to take care of, and now you can check your OmniFocus for iPad Forecast for an easy way to see when everything needs to be done. Deal with urgent items in the Overdue view, see what's on the agenda for today, or glance at the week ahead in order to balance your workload.
OmniFocus for iPad features a streamlined new Review mode that can help you stay on top of your ever-changing priorities and keep you engaged with your entire OmniFocus document. Use Review to periodically check in with all your projects and update their status. If something's on hold, mark it as such, or drop items that you know you won't get to anytime soon. Ongoing reviews help you maintain the peace of mind OmniFocus gives you by knowing you've got everything exactly where it needs to be.
