MuBu 幕布 Outliner
7/24/2017
As my friend thought - I had bought some apps over the weekend and Apple charged them all together on the same bill. Sorry about the confusion there. The app charged exactly what it said. (I bought it...
MuBu 幕布 Outliner
7/24/2017
After using MuBu a bit I find it actually has taken quite a bit from Dynalist (just as Dynalist took a lot from Workflowy when they started). You can add colors, tags, headings, and basic formatting. ...
MuBu 幕布 Outliner
7/24/2017
Someone pointed out to me that the charge might include other purchases I made - AmEx doesn't make it clear. So please ignore the part about getting charged extra until I am able to get the receipt f...
MuBu 幕布 Outliner
7/24/2017
I just stumbled upon a fantastic outliner that has many similarities to Workflowy, Outlinely, and Dynalist. While it lacks many of the bells and whistles of Dynalist, it has a wonderful native iOS app...
TickTick steadily improves
7/19/2017
I was impressed with it when I was checking out apps before settling on 2Do. I see that the latest version adds "duration" with start and end dates, but this feature is only for premium users. Also, i...
ScribblePost might suit some people
7/19/2017
I had tried the beta long time ago, but I see it has improved a lot since then. Still, I find it frustrating how many task managers fail to have separate start dates and due dates...
Thanks for the heads up. I paid for one year. Right now I’m on the fence. For me Outlinely is better on iOS, but Dynalist is better on the desktop. Right now I'm subscribed to both and I'll see ...
NVIVO vs Devonthink
7/10/2017
OK, I was able to test this just now. While pro is required to see a list of keywords across all documents, you do not need pro to search keywords across documents.

And if you get Dynalist pro I think you can see keywords across files, but I don't have pro so I can't test it out...
NVIVO vs Devonthink

Not an issue for workflowy which keeps all files as one big outline, and the others can easily handle large outlines as well (even if they encourage multiple files).
NVIVO vs Devonthink
7/10/2017
I think outliners that support tagging like Outlinely and Dynalist are excellent for this purpose. It is a bit of a compromise in that you don't tag words or documents but paragraphs (or items) - but ...
The developer of Pleco had a good twitter thread on this a few days ago. He argued that Apple doesn’t want developers to charge for version upgrades because that will mean that people might put ...
oops, can't seem to edit the typo in the title? Ads/adds...
Dynalist has a new update which adds a feature that I personally find very useful: non-adjacent selection.
They also say: "We’ve received several reports about how the app freezes or crashes w...
Day One gives itself a "Premium" service
6/30/2017
Glad everything is working. I agree with Steve though about the need for alternatives. The fact that they are doing this suggests their current business model isn't working great and I'm not convinced...
Day One gives itself a "Premium" service
6/29/2017
While it is true that it appears that way at first after the upgrade (they really did not handle this well), it does not appear that they were lying. After carefully exporting all my entries I allowed...
Day One gives itself a "Premium" service
6/28/2017
While I too suffer from subscription fatigue, it should be noted that "All 2.0 features remain available for purchasers of the 2.0 apps. Day One Classic users are also unaffected. All Day One users wi...
Dynalist iOS app is out
6/25/2017
Both the desktop app and the iOS app support offline work, but in my experience one can work offline in the web browser as well - although I think the difference is that the browser version only cache...
Dynalist iOS app is out
6/24/2017
The desktop app, however, seems basically identical to the browser experience, which is a good thing:

Dynalist iOS app is out
6/24/2017
The Dynalist iOS app is out of beta and on the app store:
http://blog.dynalist.io/ios-app/
Unfortunately, it really suffers from being a web app. I suppose there are web apps that are coded to be fa...
Not totally outliner-focused, but nifty

Transmit, one of the best SFTP clients on macOS also now lets you mount discs in the finder. From their web page:
"With the new Transmit Disk feature, you can now mount any of your favorites in the F...
iOS 11 -- a CRIMP is coming on
6/6/2017
Every year I hope that Apple will do something to improve the Contacts, Calendar, and Reminders apps. Every year I am disappointed.
Outlinely now has zooming on iOS
5/26/2017
It has been a long time in coming, but Outlinely's latest update now offers zooming on iOS.

Things 3 is released
5/21/2017
The most important part of separate start/due dates for me is not just the information about when something is due, but how this items appears in one's Today list which is where I look to see what I n...
Things 3 is released
5/19/2017
In my opinion the best web-based task manager with native apps is Todoist. But because Todoist doesn't have separate "start" and "due" dates I don't use it anymore. I have too many deadlines to use an...
