ActionComplete 1.1.0 Released, Features Reminders

March 30, 2009

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.

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.
