Omnifocus 3 reminders series#

Rather than further integrating OmniFocus and Reminders, IвЂ™d like to open OmniFocus on iOS and find it already synced with all other copies of the app and Mail Drop. Using Drafts, I can write down a task, send it to Mail Drop, and have it in my OmniFocus inbox after a few minutes if I want to save a link to a webpage, I can use a bookmarklet that sends a website to Drafts and then to Mail Drop.

I, however, have become a big fan of The Omni GroupвЂ™s Mail Drop service. I know many rely on OmniFocus-Reminders integration, and I think these are nice solutions for the desktop. I have tried to get into using OmniFocusвЂ™ iCloud capture feature on iOS, but because I donвЂ™t use Siri on a daily basis, that didnвЂ™t turn into a habit. When I come home and get to work on my Mac, I notice that OmniFocus doesnвЂ™t contain any of my recently added items, so I have to go through the cumbersome steps of opening my iPhone and launching OmniFocus just to get this theoretically time-saving trick to work right. I love OmniFocus for both Mac and iOS, but it turns out that because I lean so heavily on using Siri to add items, I tend not to open OmniFocus while IвЂ™m on the go.

Daniel created (and open-sourced) an app to check Reminders for newly added items, transfer them to OmniFocus while keeping due dates, and deleting them from their original location in Reminders.
