New in AC for Web: Reminders, User Interface in German and Spanish

September 6, 2010

AC for Web has been updated. The highlights of the update:

You can manage reminders on the web. To have the reminders set on the web sync with your phone please install AC for Android 6.4 from Android Market.
AC for Web is available in German, courtesy of Thomas Pauli, and Spanish, courtesy of Antonio Tabasco Cabezas.

Reminder Memos

Reminder time can be selected from a drop-down list in 15-minute increments.
You can omit the date part. In such a case it defaults to current date.
You can omit the time part. In this case it defaults to midnight.
The omission rules above are different from AC for Android where you have to specify both date and time for the reminder.

Internationalization

You can access German and Spanish interfaces via the drop-down list in the upper navigation panel.

Due to a technical limitation of Google App Engine, which is an underlying framework of AC for Web, I had to choose two out of three available translations based on the number of active ActionComplete users for each language. As a result an excellent Dutch translation performed by Elwin Varkevisser did not make the cut.

I'm trying to find a meaningful workaround for the issue to make possible further internationalization of AC for Web.

Testimonials

ActionComplete system is more comprehensive (and GTD integrated) than anything else out there that I've found. For managing hyper focus and the next action review for a project the interface is clean and easy to use. In other words, one less taxing thing on my mind, which is what GTD is all about.

~ Darren

As the owner of a busy web development company, I struggled with managing multiple projects and tasks. I read "Getting Things Done" and I needed a solution that would seamlessly work with my droid, plus have the option of accessing from the web. ActionComplete fits the bill perfectly! It's easy, simple, and keeps me on track in a way that doesn't unnecessarily bog me down. In other words, I don't spend my day managing my to-do's, like I did with some other apps. The pro version is beyond a doubt the best $20 per year I have ever spent.

~ Kathy

When I first read Getting Things Done, it changed my life. For the first time, I felt in complete control over my work. I accomplished relentlessly. The problem with GTD is finding a 'trusted system.' This is it! ActionComplete has replaced all my notecards, lists, and agendas. I grab my phone or the web and go. Well worth the pro upgrade.

~ Derek

I've been with AC from close to the very beginning and watched it develop into the amazing resource (not app) that it is now. I think now is the time for us to really get with the AC Wave and say THANKS for a brilliant, helpful, adaptable and yet approachable app.

~ Ross

I just wanted to let you know that AC is the reason I got a smart phone. So thanks for the extra 40.00 a month on my phone bill. :) It's worth it. I'm new to GTD and will make AC the core of my system.
