ActionComplete helps people around the world become purposeful,
effective, and successful in career,
relationships,
and other aspects of life.
The hallmark of ActionComplete Tasks is its streamlined yet flexible
task management approach that enables people of all walks of life to take a firm grip on their tasks,
assignments, errands, and to-dos and put a stop to leaks through the cracks.
ActionComplete Tasks was inspired by David Allen's Getting
Things Done methodology. Over time ActionComplete adopted elements of other task management approaches,
notably Stephen Covey's quadrants. Because of its inherent simplicity and flexibility, ActionComplete
can be used to implement a wide range of task management techniques including your own.

ActionComplete Android App extends the
typical to-do task manager to fit the life hack of Getting Things Done method on Android phones. The app allows you
to create Projects, which are the larger goals comprised of individual Actions, Waits and Pending items that may
come with completing a project. You can set Tags, People, Notes, Android notification reminders and geo-locations
known as Places on Google Maps.
Andrew Kameka of Androinica posted an article about
ActionComplete 2.0.
Here's an excerpt:
ActionComplete is a productivity app geared towards users who need more than
a simple to-do list. As we mentioned in our written and video review of ActionComplete months ago, the app allows
users to group their tasks or projects into manageable actions. It allows for waits, actions that need to be taken
by others, and pending, long-term projects that are still in the conceptual stage.
Support for importance for all item types (actions, waits, projects, and pending)
Ability to filter on project for actions and waits
Conversion from actions to waits and vise versa
Voice notification is a new and default notification option. Can be changed to pre-2.0 buzz in
preferences
Launch at boot option allows to start ActionComplete user interface on phone startup
Configurable number of items to display in lists For faster operation set this preference to 10, 25, or
50. Set to All for a review. Default is All
Improved preferences screen For multi-choice preferences tap the preference repeatedly to select a
desired value
Usability enhancements in various places
Performance enhancements
Bug fixes

computer. The backup does not happen if your phone is connected to the computer and SD card is mounted
Option to choose autocomplete or combo boxes in filters
Improved filter screens for better usability under Cupcake
It's still recommended that you manually backup right before and immediately after the upgrade.
Smaller font for list items (actions, waits, projects, pending projects, tags, and places).
First letter capitalization in names and notes for all items except tags. For tags only first
letter of
notes is capitalized. The tag name preserves user-specified case.
It's recommended that you backup right before and immediately after the upgrade.
Quick access bar Menu options are now accessible via iPhone-like on-screen menus. This feature
is
controlled by "Show toolbars" preference, enabled by default, and can be disabled if needed.
Active links Web addresses, email addresses, and phone numbers are automatically converted to
clickable
links.
Autocomplete in filters in landscape orientation When a filter dialog is accessed in landscape
orientation the filter value selection is assisted by autocomplete - a handy feature when dealing with very long
contact lists.
Configurable default item sort option Items (actions, waits, projects, and pending projects)
now can be
sorted by either urgency or name by default. The corresponding preference is "Default sort by urgency (by
name if unchecked)".

This release resolves minor issues with reminders as well as fixes application crash when location awareness is
enabled in the application but no location providers are enabled on the phone.
It's safe to apply the upgrade on top
of the existing installation, i.e. you do not have to uninstall the application first.
I recommend you to
upgrade to release 1.1.1 from any previous version of ActionComplete you might have on your phone.
As usual, please
perform a backup just before and immediately after the upgrade - just in case.
ActionComplete 1.1.0 is out. The focus of this release is reminders and related functionality.
Now you can set a
reminder for any ActionComplete item (action, wait, project, or pending project). The reminder can be set either
from a details screen or from a new/edit form.
The main list view now shows an alarm clock icon near every item that
has a reminder set on it. If you tap the alarm clock icon, the reminder date and time is displayed in the lower part
of the screen for a short time.
Most urgent first and Least urgent first sort options are
added to all the lists, Most urgent first being made the default sort option. These sort options are
based on reminder dates and times.
When a reminder time is approached, a "You've got things to do" message
appears in the notification bar of the phone for a short time and the phone emits three short buzzes. You can swipe
the notification bar open and tap on the AC notification item to get to ActionComplete reminder management
screen.
The reminder management screen accessible from the notification area allows you to "snooze" (reschedule)
past reminders or "dismiss" (delete) them by choosing "Don't remind again" option. Tapping an
item name in the reminder management screen displays the details of the item.
The upgrade preserves all the user
data and should be considered safe. For further protection please backup all your data just before and immediately
after the upgrade.
Although the application was designed to be intuitive and user-friendly, we don't bet on it. There are a number of

browser and from Help menu options on the application screens.
