OmniFocus 2.17.2 restores tappable links to other applications in notes.
- Notes — Restored the tappability of links to other applications. We’re sorry for the delay on this!
- Crash — Fixed a crash when compacting the OmniFocus database.
OmniFocus 2.17.1 — September 21, 2016
OmniFocus 2.17.1 for iOS tries to work around a problem with iOS 10 and notifications.
- Notifications — A problem with iOS 10 keeps us from sending notifications if you’ve just restored OmniFocus as part of a device backup. Now, we prompt you to toggle OmniFocus’ notification permissions to get around it.
- Logging — We’ve added some extra logging to help us diagnose Apple Watch problems (you shouldn’t notice anything).
OmniFocus 2.17 — September 9, 2016
OmniFocus 2.17 for iOS is an update to support iOS 10 and watchOS 3. This release also requires iOS 10 and watchOS 3.
- Today Widget — We’ve revamped our today widget with a header row that includes a New Inbox Item button and tappable summary counts. In compact mode, the widget shows the same item as Apple Watch would.
- 3D Touch — The compact display of the Today Widget is also available in the Quick Actions menu when force-pressing the OmniFocus icon.
- Apple Watch — Use the Digital Crown (or swipe up/down) to change what’s shown in the bottom slot on the OmniFocus home screen. Choices are:
- Continuity — Shows what you’re looking at in OmniFocus on iPhone, or is blank if you’re viewing screen on iPhone that is otherwise already represented on the Watch home screen.
- Next Up — Shows the same action that our old Glance would have shown. This is generally the first available item in the Perspective(s) chosen in Today and Watch settings.
- Custom Perspective [PRO] — Shows the custom Perspective chosen in Today and Watch settings, if any.
OmniFocus 2.16.1 — September 12, 2016
- App Launch — Fixed a problem that caused extremely long launch times for larger databases.
This release adds the ability to specify an encryption passphrase separate from your sync password. Don’t set a separate passphrase until you are running OmniFocus 2.16 on all of your iOS devices and OmniFocus 2.7 (in public test as of Sept 1) on all of your Macs.
- Encryption — We added the ability to set a separate encryption passphrase and to revert to using the sync password for encryption.
- 1Password — OmniFocus now integrates with 1Password for iOS for sync and encryption credentials.
- Mail Drop — Fixed a problem where attachments with non-ascii characters in their names would be missing their contents once imported.
- Database Migration — Fixed several problems with the database migration flow.
- Section Headers — Fixed a problem updating counts and labels in section header rows on iPad.
- URL Scheme —
omnifocus:///pasteURLs now support folders and projects as targets. - Localizations — Please let us know if you come across any remaining localization omissions or problems!
