Are you talking about Stephen’s videos?
I am also familiar with this app. It is very interesting app.

It is good for daily task management; just like all other task manement tools.

But, if you want to use it for Bullet Journaling, I think an important component of the philosophy of BJ is the ability to plan the future; and the ability to see the big picture. I don’t find any easy way of doing a yearly planning (scheduling) with it.

- for that matter, none of the rest of task manament tools can do that. You can schedule some specific tasks (in Things, for example), but, they all fall short of showign the big picures (birds eye view).

The mindmapping tools like MindView (mindmanager, the brain) seem do better on that area.

Again, the big project management systems, again, is they such at daily tracking of tasks.

so, I always feel some kind of chasm between the task management systems and the daily task systems. For many years, the reason why OF doesn’t stuck with me is because it terribly fails to show me the big picture.

My world view is Top-down. I have the big picture to do this year—>break it to months and then, daily tasks.

Note of these system can effectively do it all.

Other than that, I also like Noteplan for daily task managmenet.
