On today’s episode of The Omni Show, Andrew and Omni Group's CEO, Ken Case, dissect the key takeaways from Apple's WWDC and how visionOS is set to redefine the tech landscape. Ken envisions a future rich in augmented reality, drawing parallels with the revolutionary transformation seen with the iPhone.
With WWDC now in our rear-view mirror, it's time to share our plans for the rest of the year! We're continuing full steam ahead on OmniFocus 4 and OmniGraffle 8. And peering even further ahead, we look forward to bringing all of our products to Apple's new spatial computing platform!
Today we chat with one of the Omni Groups' Support Humans, Marley Wissner. If you've ever wondered what happens after someone shares a question, comment, or feature request - Marley’s here to peel back the curtain.
Happy New Year! A tradition in January, we take a moment to reflect on the past year and share a roadmap of the intended journey ahead for 2023. We have a very full schedule ahead of us in 2023 as we redesign and rebuild our two most popular apps, OmniFocus and OmniGraffle, leveraging the latest advancements in Apple technologies.
With our latest shipping updates, all of our apps are ready for both macOS Ventura and iPadOS 16. Along with updating our apps for compatibility, we've brought iPadOS 16's customizable toolbars to all our document-based apps (OmniGraffle, OmniOutliner, and OmniPlan).
Thirty (yes, 30!!) years of OmniGroup.com, 100 Episodes of the Omni Show, AND the 5th anniversary of this podcast? We try to contain our excitement as we reminisce with Ken Case.
The OmniFocus team has been hard at work on OmniFocus 4, a major new version of OmniFocus for all platforms. Today, we are excited to announce some much anticipated news: OmniFocus 4 for Mac test builds are now available in TestFlight!
Our apps are ready for iOS 16, and we hope you enjoy it when it ships next week. Coincidentally, 30 years ago today was the day that NeXTSTEP 3.0 shipped and we registered omnigroup.com!
We've updated our online store so that there's no longer a distinction between team and personal licenses. You can purchase however many licenses you need—traditional up-front licenses or subscriptions—then use them yourself or share them with team members. We've reduced the number of choices each of you have to make when purchasing our software, while still providing flexibility for how you use purchased licenses.
One of the predictable sources of news affecting our plans is Apple's Worldwide Developer Conference, so each year we leave space in our schedule to jump into that firehose of information—and when we emerge, we update our plans and share what we've learned about changes that might affect our roadmap.
It's probably no surprise that writing software is a somewhat difficult task. There's an unfathomable amount of iteration and detective work that goes into creating a product that feels intuitive for the new user, yet familiar to the ardent fan. Surprisingly, the art of crafting effective software documentation demands some of the exact same iteration and detective skills.
Inserting helpful guidance at just the right point in the user conversation (without over-explaining) can be a tricky dance.
For anyone who uses any of our apps on an iPhone or an iPad, we're starting out the year with updates across the board. With these updates, Omni Automation in Shortcuts is available across all of our apps and on all platforms.
Redesigning and rebuilding our apps based on the latest Apple technologies remains our current focus. This ongoing effort has now borne fruit with last year's OmniPlan 4 release, continues with the current OmniFocus 4 TestFlight, and—approaching over the horizon—is expected to lead to an incredible update to OmniGraffle.
Today we talk to Naomi Pearce, media relations representative for the Omni Group. This show - and the timing of the show itself - dives into what sort of stress-free goodness can show up for everyday folks who use powerful software.
On today’s show, CEO Ken Case and Automation Advocate Sal Soghoian tackle the question: "Are Omni Apps Ready for macOS Monterey?"
Spoiler Alert: Yes, they are!
With macOS Monterey we now have Shortcuts available on the Mac! With today’s launch of Monterey, we’re shipping updates to all of our apps which add support for both Monterey and Shortcuts.
