Syncing Perspectives does not work - sort of...
 

Good morning/evening!

In my ongoing effort to use Omnifocus more effectivly, I just stumbled over something:

I created two perspectives, which synced perfectly to the iPhone. My next (third) perspective does not, also every new perspective I create.

Huh?

Thanks for help

W:

Are the missing perspectives perhaps Project (or Planning) mode perspectives? Those aren't supported on the iPhone/iPod/iPad, only Context mode based perspectives at the moment...and there is no error or warning message, it just won't appear to have synced.

Bingo. They are, indeed.

Thanks for helping out.

@Omni: Will there be synced perspectives in Planning mode?

I'm also very curious about Project based perspectives. Will there be support for them anytime soon?

The project perspectives are a core part of how I use OmniFocus. OF (for iPhone) without them is (to me) nothing more than an easy way to get tasks into OF when I'm on the move.

One more vote for Project based perspectives on the iPhone

While I am a big fan of Contexts, I do find myself looking at my actions from the perspective of Projects (that would change if I could have multiple Contexts per action, but that is probably a different discussion).

Not having Project based Perspectives sync to my iPhone takes away a layer of functionality I am used to on the Mac, so adding this functionality to the iPhone will be highly appreciated.

Thanks!

Two thumbs up for this option, I was freaking crazy wondering why the project based perspective were not syncing, lol, OF Team please make this available

Hi,

I am bumping this thread up. I would like to see Planning Mode Perspectives synced to iPad/iPhone.

Is this a planned feature?

Thank you.
