Welcome to the new OmniFocus for iPhone. As you’ll quickly notice, we’ve refreshed the entire user interface for iOS 7. We’ve also gone deeper and reorganized some of the navigation to make it easier and more natural for you to quickly get ideas from your head to this app, and update them as you make progress towards your goals.

OmniFocus for iPhone still syncs with OmniFocus for Mac and OmniFocus for iPad. Syncs can even happen when you’re not actively using OmniFocus, so that your information is ready when you are.

We’ve worked very hard to bring you this new version in time for iOS 7! But we didn’t have enough time to craft:

• TextExpander integration
• Landscape orientation
• Localizations

OmniFocus for iPhone 1.16.2 is a minor update which prevents misconfigured servers from downgrading the security of a connection.

Sync

When OmniFocus is configured to use an encrypted https connection to a sync server, it will now ignore any location headers from that server that tell it to switch to unencrypted http. Our assumption is that your configuration choice indicates that you want all sync operations to be encrypted, and that any servers which redirect to unencrypted http locations for these resources are simply misconfigured.

OmniFocus for iPhone 1.16.1 is a minor update which fixes a handful of reported issues.

Bug Fixes

• Fixed a crash on launch when restoring view state for some customers upgrading from a previous version.
• Fixed a crash when sending an action via email due to missing localized resources.
• Fixed a problem where the contextual menu on action rows could interfere with reordering actions.
• Fixed a regression which resulted in a Perspective focused on No Context to be empty.
