OK, I now have three different versions of OmniFocus (DeskTop, iPhone, iPad) with three different looking GUIs. For a premium priced product, I feel this is exceptionally shoddy.
Brian has previously stated that the new iPhone/iPad icons are loved and hated on a 50/50 split, but for those of us with failing eyesight they're nothing short of useless. I'm delighted that the designers discovered radial fill but why use it for the checkboxes? They now look like they need a good scrub! The use of tonally similar colours in the icons and other weird implementations such as grey-on-grey in the notes field do nothing for the visually impaired nor help give the impression that OmniFocus is a professional product.
Now, after looking at OmniFocus for iPad, IMHO the various implementations 'look' cobbled together separately, without any coherent overall design strategy.
