OmniFocus 2.9 adds external keyboard shortcuts and fixes bugs. No need to panic about the version number—this app will go to eleven and likely far beyond (anyone remember OmniFocus for iPhone 1.16.3?).

• Keyboard Shortcuts — When used on iPad with an external keyboard, OmniFocus now supports many convenient keyboard shortcuts! Hold ⌘ to see the shortcuts available from your current location. We chose to start on iPad to simplify things, but please let us know if you’d use these shortcuts on iPhone too.
• Split-Screen Multitasking — Adjusted some multitasking layouts for iPad Pro.

• Captured Reminders — Added a hidden preference for whether Reminders Capture should add a note about where to find the original item. You can turn the note off using:

  this one

• Reminders Capture — Prevented OmniFocus from creating multiple entries for captured Reminders.

• Deferred Inbox and Flagged Items — These items are once again hidden in Today and on Apple Watch
• Home Screen — Fixed a bug where built-in Perpectives sometimes went missing after restoring Pro.
• Spotlight — Fixed a bug where built-in Perspectives were not indexed in non-English localizations.
• Quick Actions — Prevented a blank Inbox item from being created when the app had been backgrounded showing Help, Release Notes, or Contact Omni.
• Apple Watch — Unavailable past due items sometimes weren’t counted as Past Due in the complication and glance; now fixed!
• Crash on Launch — Fixed a crash trying to jump from Spotlight search to a perspective that wasn’t visible on the OmniFocus home screen. This was only reachable on a cold launch of OmniFocus.
• Pasting from Notes — Pasting checklists from Notes once again strips [ ] and [x].
• First Run — We now ignore all URLs other than the unadorned omnifocus:/// and setup URLs during first run.

OmniFocus 2.8.1 fixes bugs and adds to OmniFocus’ Spotlight search index.

• Spotlight — OmniFocus now indexes Contexts, Folders, and Perspectives (both built-in and custom) so that you can search for them using spotlight on your iOS device. We also added Today to the index.
• Spotlight Icons — We now give each type of item a different icon in Spotlight results.
• New Inbox Item Button — Fixed a problem where this button would be hidden after foregrounding the app.
• Quick Actions — Prevented items deleted via Sync from appearing in the 3D Touch Quick Actions menu, and fixed several bugs related to opening Quick Actions.
• Pasting Plain Text — In addition to detecting items pasted from Notes, we now also trim -, *, or • ("bullet” characters) and leading whitespace when pasting into lists.
• Deferred Flagged Items — These items are now handled correctly on Apple Watch.
• Past Due — Fixed a bug where Past Due would appear empty on Apple Watch.
• Quick Action Icons — Updated the images used for 3D Touch Quick Actions to better match those from Apple.
• Smaller Fixes and Improvements — Fixed some rare bugs too complicated to explain here, including crashes.

OmniFocus 2.8 adds 3D Touch Launch Shortcuts and fixes bugs.

• 3D Touch Shortcuts — Added 3D Touch launch shortcuts to the OmniFocus icon. On iPhone 6S and 6S Plus you can launch directly into a New Inbox Item, the OmniFocus Home Screen, the last item you were viewing, or Today (in Pro, this is Perspective you’ve chosen for the Today widget if applicable). These are dynamic shortcuts, so they won’t work appear until this version of OmniFocus has been launched at least once.
• Crash Pasting — Prevented a crash when pasting short strings of text into the outline.
• Sync Log — Adjusted the layout of the sync log for clarity.
• New Inbox Item Button — Stopped this button from disappearing during an incoming sync.
• Sharing from Notes — Sharing to OmniFocus from Apple Notes has been restored.
• Stale Notifications — Notifications are now cleared when the database is reset.
• Split-Screen Multitasking — Fixed many many bugs related to running in split screen.
• Apple Watch — Fixed bugs related to Apple Watch and OmniFocus settings.

OmniFocus 2.7 adds a native Apple Watch app (with watch face complications and a customizable glance), and supports major new iOS 9 features such as split-screen multitasking and integration with system-wide searches. It also adds support for pasting multiple actions at once from other apps such as Notes. (This update requires iOS 9.)

• Native Apple Watch App — OmniFocus for Apple Watch has been completely rewritten as a native app for watchOS 2. OmniFocus now offers watch face complications and a customizable Glance.
• Split-Screen Multitasking — OmniFocus supports Split View and Slide Over multitasking on devices which support multitasking (such as iPad Air 2).
• Spotlight Search — iOS can now search your OmniFocus database. So far only actions and projects are included, but we plan to add more.
• Pasting — Multiple actions are now created when multi-line text is pasted into a list (including checklist items from the iOS Notes app).
• Forecast — When the screen is narrow, the Forecast control displaying the week will now move to the top of the Forecast perspective. (It is no longer necessary to show the sidebar to access that control.)
• Reminders Capture — In order to avoid conflict with the new “Siri, remind me about this” feature, we have had to change the way we capture from Reminders. Instead of deleting captured items, they are marked complete and moved to a “Captured by OmniFocus” list. You can view the original reminders by opening the Reminders app, choosing the “Captured by OmniFocus” list, and tapping “Show Completed”.
• Bug Fixes — Many bugs were fixed while implementing new features for this release.

OmniFocus 2.6.2 fixes two problems related to sync:

• Sync Conflicts — Fixed a bug where a device would mistakenly detect a sync conflict and ask you to replace your database.
• Note Editing — Fixed a bug where the text insertion point could jump around the note during a sync, causing problems.
