Todoist is ready for iPhone

Edit Subject

You should seriously consider developing a native client for the iPhone... or in the alternative, integrating with one of the leading clients such as Zenbe or Whattasks. I prefer your approach and flexibility, but it does not currently hold up well on the iphone using your mobile version.

I'm the author of Doings, so I'm probably a little biased, but I believe it's the best Todoist client available for iPhone.

There's also been a lot of work on the upcoming 1.3 release.

  Doings has one major flaw though... when you are synchronizing on a slow internet connection and your iPhone goes into standby, it leaves your data in an inconsistent state... I was on vacation and tried to synchronize on a slow public wifi for like three times. When I came back from vacation I found that my todolists on todoist have been totally messed up. Wrong ordering, duplicate items... So, be careful with that!

  I agree. Doings is the best todoist client available for iPhone and I have been using it since I started using todoist.
  
  However it needs some update to make it more functional. Here are the features addition I suggest for the next verison:
  
  1. Sync immediately
  --------------------
  It's quite a daunting task to press the sync button whenever need to see the latest changes or save the latest changes. Doings should allow offline editing but also should sync immediately with the server without requiring user to press the sync button.
  
  Something like what simplenote do.
  
  2. Collapsable tasks
  --------------------
  Currently doings list all the sub tasks in indented form. It's ok for short list but for the long list it will be easier if it can collapse/expand the tasks.
  
  3. Tag support
  --------------
  Currently Doings doesn't have any tag support. I think this is a MUST addition in the app.

  It's more than that, what's missing, imho.
  I had to do compromises from the beginning and eventually I stopped using the app.
  
  - No recurring events (they are integral for my todolists)
  - I don't mind that tasks are not collapsable/expandable, but it's so cumbersome that new tasks get added at the end of a list and then you have to drag them all the way up...

  Searched for Doings via the app store on the iPad and it did not come up in the iPhone apps results. Yet I can find it on my Touch. Why?

  @subdevice - I hope you've taken a look at Doings 1.3. I think it resolves a couple of the requests you've had. I'd be glad to chat more with you via email (support@bluetooventures.com). It's not fair to continue lengthy 3rd-party app discussions on the Todoist support site, since Todoist pays for this site).
  
  @james - Doings 1.3 requires iOS 4.0, so it probably won't show up on the iPad until Apple released iOS 4.2, which is expected later this month.

  @Thaddeus - Yep, I looked at the app once more and it is much better now. The week todolist is properly sorted... long text is displayed fully... Recurrent events are supported... I am quite happy now. Thanks.

  I've tried EVERYTHING for iphone on todoist, including Bluetick and Doings.
  
  I like how fast bluetick syncs, but I am fed up with it giving me error messages when I click on the "Today" or "Week" view. I've tweeted the author about this error and got no reply. I'm kinda annoyed to have paid for a malfunctioning app.
  
  As for Doings, it's great except that I have to sync to download the changes onto my phone, and i have to sync to upload any changes i made on this app. It's even more annoying that the sync takes damn long. Plus, there's a bug. I can't delete any task from the app.
  
  Since both authors are here, could you guys please fix it up?

http://simpleajax.googlecode.com/svn/...

This is an iPhone-tailered version of Todoist built on the public API. It only supports a "wallpaper" style read-only view and even works offline. I added it to my iPhone home screen which makes it full-screen without the Safari navigation bars.

  This just does not work for me. I click login and it just sits. I've tried to log in via my iPod Touch, iPad and even Chrome on my desktop. No luck.

  I got a chance to take a good look at this webapp. It does what it says and is pretty bare-boned. It says it's a "wall" and I can see why. Some good things about it are that it supports landscape view, pinch/double-tap to zoom, zoom out to see all projects and tasks at once (like a wallpaper), interface is tight so I get to see about 10 to 15 items per page, background is black so I can work in bed without bothering my mate, scroll left and right to see other projects instead of going back a menu unlike most apps, tasks are in bullet form and bullets change shape depending on due date, loads up pretty fast. Some bad things are that you can't indent, color coding is not shown, only undone items are shown, it doesn't show empty projects meaning I cannot add to them, I cannot add a task when offline, I can add but cannot edit an item, I cannot create new projects, labels don't show, I cannot filter or sort the list.

I just released an iPhone client called BlueTick. I doesn't have all the features of Doings (such as offline mode), but it is half the price AND it handles long task descriptions (that take up more than one line)
