OmniFocus for iOS 2.0.1

September 27, 2014

Our deepest apologies, everyone! Our OmniFocus 2.0 submission was unintentionally marked as a test build, which meant it stopped working on Friday, September 26 (displaying the message “This OmniFocus prerelease has expired"). This update removes that test flag so that the app will never expire.

OmniFocus for iOS 2.0

September 16, 2014

This is the initial release of OmniFocus for iPad 2. The app has been completely redesigned:

  • New Design — Completely new design for iOS 8.
  • Pro Upgrade — Pro features (custom perspectives and sidebar customizations) are now available as an In-App Purchase—which is free for customers who upgrade from v1. (Thank you for your support!)
  • Perspectives — Save and revisit custom views for specific tasks or situations: “Show me the chores I can do in five minutes” or “What do I need to follow up on with the people from the planning meeting?”. OmniFocus for iPad now supports Perspectives that use project hierarchy in addition to those that don’t.
  • Customizable sidebar — Show just want you want, in the order you want it
  • Today Extension — See OmniFocus items due today right in Notification Center
  • Sharing Extension — The new Sharing Extension makes it easier than ever to add new items from other apps.
  • Interactive Notifications — Alerts for nearby and due items let you mark complete (or snooze) without even opening the app
  • Duration — Edit and view estimated duration for actions
  • Improved Search — See results from the current view or your entire OmniFocus database
  • Background Sync — OmniFocus syncs in the background so changes you make on other devices are ready when you are
  • 64-bit — OmniFocus is now optimized for A8 and 64-bit for blazing fast performance.
