I'd like to see this, or an iCal file import feature added into Sandy.

I have the same problem korym. For some reason, with repeating events if you "forget" one instance of it, google calendar keeps showing it. I've just learned to rely more heavily on the Daily Digests, and lookups.

Sync with google calendar is a hot-button item around here, and i'm sure Rael is working on something.

korym replied on September 15, 2008 12:24 to the question "Two way syncing with Google Calendar" in I want Sandy:

Question about syncing: Is there a way for Google Calendar to reflect Sandy's updates? I obviously make quite a few changes on Sandy but when I look at them on Google Calendar, they're not updated. Tasks I've checked off on Sandy will continue to reside on Google Calendar. Just curious. Thx!

Tracey R. replied on September 03, 2008 03:22 to the question "How close is Sandy to full synchronization with Google Calendar?" in I want Sandy:

Exactly what I'd like, too. Usually it's easiest for me to call Sandy, knowing that the confirmation email will trigger a gadget in my Gmail which will in turn make it get added to both my RTM and Gcal. But other times starting with Gcal is more appropriate, and I really hate having to do something twice, when a lot of the time I'm lucky to manage to do it once!

That's what I'm looking for too - I'd love to hear more about how sandy is going to address this.

Yes, ReQall will send multiple texts.

Unfortunately, it is limited to only one shopping list. RTM is superior in this respect. However, if all you need is the one, ReQuall is much easier and faster to set up than RTM/Twitter.

Personally, after Jott and Sandy (both of which I love dearly), I was just exhausted with setting up and learning new systems and so I liked ReQuall because it met my needs without any tweaking and no learning curve. However, GTD followers and others who rely extensively on multiple lists would greatly benefit from the RTM/Twitter combo!

Yeraze,

Combining Remember the Milk/Twitter, a person can use their cell phone to direct message Remember the Milk on Twitter, and RTM sends a particular list from one's RTM account (you have to add RTM as a friend on your Twitter account, and RTM on Twitter has to know what RTM.com account you have, but you get the picture.) If the characters in the text message exceed Twitter's limit, RTM just sends multiple text messages until the message is complete.

I don't have experience with ReQall yet, but I'd imagine this is how it would work there too.

Yeraze replied on August 28, 2008 17:03 to the question "I'd like to know if Sandy can send an SMS of the lookup results." in I want Sandy:

Complete replies via SMS is tricky because SMS (like twitter) has a very restrictive character limit.

How was ReQall accomplish it? Multiple text messages?

bigfan replied on August 27, 2008 22:08 to the question "I'd like to know if Sandy can send an SMS of the lookup results." in I want Sandy:

I LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE Sandy and use it extensively in through Jott. That said, there is a free outside source solution. I use reQall specifically, and only, for SMS access to my shopping list.

"With reQall’s organizing and sharing capabilities, the family shopping has never been easier. Because reQall recognizes key words like "buy," it can put those items right on your shopping list.

Enter “buy milk” and reQall knows to put it on your shopping list.
Want to share the shopping with your spouse? Just enter, “Tell John to buy shoes for the kids,” and it will go on his shopping list.

Even better, this memory tool connects it all! So you never have to stand in the middle of the grocery store and realize “My shopping list is on the frig!” Just call reQall on your cell phone and have reQall play your shopping list or even better, send it to you in a text message. "

Complete lookup replies via SMS is really a must. Please, please, please!?

http://www.iphonesandy.com. I scaled back from my original vision. I need to learn more iPhone Web Dev but this should serve you guys well in the mean time.

Feel free to send me any feedback. You even have a beautiful home screen icon for easy access.

Bricoleur .... I believe we had similar interests in a charity about education and now regarding sandy and iPhone. Would be great to connect once again. ex VP for R2R – joshie, on August 20, 2008 10:28

I created a mock up and this runs a back end database that can store all the entries entered into the iPhone I posted this to another question about this and just discovered this post. This does not recreate the admin portion of the site. It is for quick and simple execution of tasks to Sandy. After all this is all about interacting by email.

Not a solution but a bit of a help...
I've created a couple icons on my home page to link to frequently used Sandy pages (for example lists)...
In the grocery store I can simply hit the icon for Sandy Lists and will go right there without having to fiddle with home page first.... still not the same as native app... but a bit of an aid while waiting

Bricoleur replied on July 26, 2008 19:25 to the idea "Sandy iPhone web app" in I want Sandy:

I love the combination of Twinkler (for Twitter), Jott, Sandy and Google Calendar....
but would become a raving evangelist if there was a native app on iPhone to get my daily digest

I'd love this! But in the meantime Twitter and Sandy being my assts will have to do...making a note on the iphone and emailing it to sandy and having it tweet me later is a good work around...for now. As is tweeting Sandy a direct msg...
