iPhone sync like iGTD does it? Thread Tools Search this Thread Display Modes
Hi Gang,

I've tied my horses to OmniFocus and don't plan on going back to iGTD for a variety of reasons. That being said, the iGTD solution for iPhone seems much friendlier to me the the OmniFocus plan. My primary Mac is a laptop and not always "hooked in" to the web. Furthermore, I'm a bit leery of leaving an open connection to the net for my machine.

I've not tried it but I understand iGTD simply made an interface that accesses your .Mac backup of its data and allows you to easily access it with your iPhone. Any chance of some similar solution for Omni Focus down the road?

I just want to say that I am 100% into this idea. I imagine that a lot of us have laptops as our primary computers these days, so this can't just be a niche issue. (I also submitted feedback to this effect.)
 
I would *love* a solution like this.

Honestly, I had never considered bailing on my allegiance to OF. But iGTD, although not as sexy, has sync'ing to .Mac as an incredibly useful feature.

I want to be able to access my GTD system from my mac at work as well as my personal mac laptop. And I want to be able to at least get a read-only view on my iPhone, but like the original poster, I can't run my laptop as a web-server for this purpose.

Even if the data was just on .Mac, I'd write my own web-interface to get at the data. But having it trapped just on my laptop really inhibits the usefulness of an otherwise great app. :(
 
Ken,

Can you give us any good news on this?

I'm pretty sure the official stance so far has been "Not in 1.0, maybe later." Which I can understand. If they upgraded it to "Not in 1.0, definitely later", that'd inspire confidence. Even if Omni dangled that carrot in front of me, I'd probably stick around for another year waiting for it.

I'm a sucker like that. :-)
