Miscellaneous

OmniFocus for iPhone 1.15

September 17, 2012

OmniFocus for iPhone 1.15 includes support for iPhone 5 and iOS 6, adds TextExpander touch support, a Russian localization, and various other improvements and bug fixes.

OmniFocus for iPhone requires iOS 5.1 or later.

TextExpander touch Support

  • OmniFocus now includes support for TextExpander touch. TextExpander snippets will be expanded in most text fields, in notes, and in search.
  • More info at Smile Software’s website.

Maps & Location

  • Location Reminders in OmniFocus exclusively uses geofencing whenever possible. (In the uncommon case where you’ve exceeded the device’s maximum number of monitored regions, OmniFocus will fall back to using significant location changes as a supplemental mechanism.)
  • Fixed a bug where requesting directions to a context’s location in Maps mode didn’t correctly open the directions in the Maps app on iOS 6.
  • This release restores business search.

Privacy on iOS 6

  • OmniFocus requires permission to access your Reminders to use the Reminders Capture feature.
  • OmniFocus requires permission to access your Calendar to use the Calendar Events feature of Forecast mode.
  • OmniFocus requires permission to access your Contacts in order to assign a contact address as a Context’s location.

Localization

  • OmniFocus for iPhone now includes a Russian localization.

Miscellaneous

  • On iOS 6 OmniFocus uses a more robust and flexible method for capturing Reminders.
  • Reminders captured on iOS 5.1 no longer have “Event reminder” as their default note.
  • Improved the appearance of completed action titles in the Action inspector.
  • Improved match highlighting in the Context and Project picker on iOS 6.
  • The Calendar Alarms setup screen now includes instructions for enabling SSL on your calendar subscription. (iOS does not include a mechanism for OmniFocus to enable this automatically.)
  • In Forecast mode the due time is shown for items not in Past or Future.
  • Fixed a drawing glitch triggered by completing the last item in Forecast mode on iOS 6.
  • Fixed an edge case where sync which removed a due date may have left the due notification scheduled.
  • Fixed a bug where the Search screen was sometimes incorrectly laid out after interacting with the on screen keyboard.
  • Omni Sync Server usernames are always lowercase. Sync Setup enforces this now to eliminate the possibility of entering an unusable value.
  • The selection style of Forecast’s past section draws overdue only when you have overdue actions in the past.

OmniFocus for iPhone 1.14.2

June 7, 2012

OmniFocus 1.14.2 for iPhone is a minor update. It removes direct support for syncing through MobileMe, and fixes a handful of reported issues.

iCloud Capture

Sync

  • Removed MobileMe as a directly supported Sync method. If you are currently syncing via MobileMe, your settings will now appear under the Advanced (WebDAV) sync method.

  • MobileMe/iDisk will be unavailable after June 30, 2012. Please switch to the free Omni Sync Server or another WebDAV service.

Workflow

  • The “Clean Up completed Inbox items” setting is now off by default.

  • Fixed a bug where assigning a blocked context to an Inbox item in an Action Group didn’t immediately update its status.

Miscellaneous

OmniFocus for iPhone 1.14.1

April 19, 2012

OmniFocus 1.14.1 for iPhone is a minor update which fixes several reported issues.

iCloud Capture

  • Fixed a bug which caused OmniFocus to skip reminders with location data when capturing iCloud Reminders.

Built-in Web Browser

  • Added Retina versions of the back & forward buttons.

Miscellaneous

  • Fixed a regression which caused OmniFocus to monitor for significant locations changes in situations where no locations required monitoring.

  • Fixed a bug which resulted in a spurious password prompt if a sync was initiated while the device was at the lock screen.

  • Fixed a regression which caused a crash at launch on iOS 4.0 devices without multitasking support.

  • Fixed a crash when reverse geocoding locations on iOS 4.x.

  • The help screen title is now localized.

  • Updated the Mac application icon in Sync Settings.

OmniFocus for iPhone 1.14

March 15, 2012

OmniFocus 1.14 for iPhone adds flexible weekly repeats and fixes a handful of reported issues.

Repeating Actions

Added flexible weekly repeats. When a project or action repeats every week, you can specify the days of the week the item should repeat on.

For example:

Repeat every week on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday

will create actions due on:

  • Monday, February 13, 2012
  • Wednesday, February 15, 2012
  • Friday, February 17, 2012
  • Monday, February 20, 2012
  • Wednesday, February 22, 2012
  • Friday, February 25, 2012

Important:

Please update to OmniFocus 1.10 for Mac and OmniFocus 1.5 for iPad after updating to OmniFocus 1.14 for iPhone.

Older releases of OmniFocus do not understand this new repeat data. If you edit or complete one of these items using a previous release of OmniFocus, you will lose the weekday repeat specification.

Forecast

Removed the incorrect section header which appeared in the Future section when no items were due.

Fixed a bug where tapping View on a Due Alert while on the Settings screen could leave you stuck in Settings until force-quitting the app.

iCloud Reminders

Fixed a crash encountered when syncing with iCloud Reminders.
