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 1.5.2 for iPad is a minor update. It removes direct support for syncing through MobileMe, and fixes a handful of reported issues.
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.
- Fixed a regression which prevented the progress bar from showing on first run after entering your sync credentials.
Editor
- Fixed a bug where the item editor could become obscured by the keyboard in Landscape orientation after using the Move popover.
Workflow
- The Inbox can now be filtered. By default, remaining items are visible in the Inbox. Tap the View Options button to filter by Next Action, Available, Remaining, or All.
- 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.
Retina Display
- Minor update to the Plus and Search icons for Retina devices.
Miscellaneous
- Fixed a bug where OmniFocus sometimes monitored for location changes and generated location reminders despite being disabled in settings.
- Fixed a crash reverse geocoding locations on iOS 4.x.
- 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 responsible for a crash at launch on iOS 4.0 devices without multitasking support.
- Various localization updates.

Mail Rule
- Improved logging in the Mail Rule. OmniFocus will log a message to the console when the Mail Rule skips a message because the sender is not on the list of allowed from addresses.
Review
- Fixed a bug where the units pop up menu in the Project Review inspector did not display the correct units if the review interval unit was hours or minutes.
- Hours and minutes are no longer available as a default review interval unit in Data Preferences. (Hours and minutes will appear in the pop up menu if the current setting requires their presence.)
- Fixed a regression which caused incorrect labels to appear for the project review interval setting in Data Preferences.
Workflow
Several changes were made to improve workflow when working directly out of the Inbox:
- The Inbox badge count now includes the contents of groups in the Inbox.
- The “Clean Up completed Inbox items” setting is now off by default.
- The Next Action availability filter now works correctly in the Inbox.
- Fixed a bug where the contents of groups in the Inbox were excluded from Context mode.
- Fixed a bug where Action Groups in the Inbox were sorted incorrectly in Context mode.
- Fixed a bug where assigning a blocked context to an Inbox item in an Action Group didn’t immediately update its status.
- Fixed a bug where changing an Action Group from parallel to sequential didn’t immediately update the status of its children.
- Fixed a bug where setting an estimate on a nested item rooted in the Inbox didn’t update the summarized estimate on its parent items. This caused the Estimated Time Filter to work incorrectly in the Inbox.
- Fixed a bug where changing the flagged state of a nested item rooted in the Inbox didn’t update the summarized flagged status on its parent items. This caused the Status Filter to work incorrectly in the Inbox.
