We don’t constantly need new or better, we just need a system, whether that be in an application or a notebook that helps us to understand our own brains and get the most from them. In today’s society, there’s a need for more with the newest thing or the vast amount of options giving an almost crippling choice selection. I believe that the key to any productivity tool is the manner in which it adapts to your life, not the other way around. The beauty of Things 3 is just how simple and barebones is it to use on the surface but equally how vast its use cases are. The thing about the productivity world and the apps that we have access to across the App Store is that quite honestly, most of the time less is more. Think of it almost in the same way a calendar app like Fantastical works by integrating with Google Calendars to become more than just the app I use to view and edit my schedule, but also the app that controls the whole framework - I want Things to be less of a walled garden and more of the control hub for my brain. If I had the ability to work in Things and have those tasks automatically pop up in Reminders, the app would become an even more useful tool for working on small projects with those who just want to use what they are used to. If Things 4 was able to export back to Reminders then my previous point about collaboration wouldn’t even need to be addressed. In Things 3, you can easily import from Apple’s Reminders app but I wish there was the choice to go even further with that seamless integration. (Image credit: Things) Better Reminders integrationĪ problem many apps face when coming up against Apple’s native alternatives is the just the sheer widespread audience that native apps have.
