Bug fixes

Saving and Restoring Filters

Now ActionComplete remembers your filter settings - next time you start the application you pick up right at where you left off.

Pre-population of Metadata for New Tasks

More often than not you work in a context defined by your filters and find yourself in a situation where the new tasks you create have to have the same metadata (tags, people, and places) as the active filter. Now AC natively supports this scenario.

Filters to Find "Orphan" Tasks

It's highly recommended that most of the time you work within a context defined by the filters as such an approach ensures better task visibility and generally improves your ActionComplete experience.

Even when practicing this style at times you might find yourself in need to quickly capture something in a situation when every second matters. This is how you end up with "orphans" - tasks with no metadata.

The newly added <no tag> and <no place> filters allow you to easily identify unassigned items so that you can get back to the absolute balance in your task universe.

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.
