BRIAN	Posted: Sep 19, 2009 Score: 1 Reference BRIAN Posted: Sep 19, 2009 Score: 1 Reference Being there is no WM app, and I have fallen in love with Toodledo, I have decided to work on a WMSync app. I absolutely have to get this on my phone. I have most of the API wrapper written for CF3.5 and am now working on the backend tasks. Here is a partial list of what I hope to include Implement all features of API Reminders Multiple Accounts I really have no time frame to complete this, but considering I see it as crucial to completing all the other tasks on my list..it is high priority. I would hope some limited form could be available no later then mid-October for testing. Would love to hear any feature suggestions here..... Brian
Anders	Posted: Sep 19, 2009 Score: 0 Reference Anders Posted: Sep 19, 2009 Score: 0 Reference A WM app would be awesome. Are you going to write something to sync with the pocket outlook database, or will it be completely separate? I ask because of the built in tasks' dearth of available task fields, and lack of hierarchy.

Anders	Posted: Sep 19, 2009 Score: 0 Reference Anders Posted: Sep 19, 2009 Score: 0 Reference Very nice, I was worried about the limitations of the poor built-in database. I probably have a zillion feature suggestions, if I had to narrow it down to a few... Subtasks displayed intented below parents (would also love to be able to flatten, but indented would definitely be my first preference). Filtering of deferred Status types. Touch-friendliness. (I know this must be tricky. I haven't found a good WM task app that has it completely figured out.) Really my number one request would just be a working app of any kind. This app is the #1 piece of missing software in my life. My phone is so jealous of my iPod right now, and it's tearing them apart. The electronic discord is unbearable. Let me know if you ever need a tester.

Dave	Posted: Sep 22, 2009 Score: 0 Reference Dave Posted: Sep 22, 2009 Score: 0 Reference Webis is supposedly working on Toodledo sync for Pocket Informant, which would be excellent. I hope they are.
Anders	Posted: Sep 22, 2009 Score: 0 Reference Anders Posted: Sep 22, 2009 Score: 0 Reference WebIS has said they plan to add a Toodledo sync module to PI WM. However, for one thing, Alex has waffled a bit on the issue. At one point he said it was definitely happening, and then later in a forum thread, he said it could be a possibility. I called him out on the contradictory statements, but he did not respond to that post. Also, I would assume it will just sync tasks to the Pocket Outlook database which PI relies on. That would mean no subtasks (sort of, PI does hierarchy, but it is not saved in PO), and only a couple of available fields to sync which would be really unfortunate. If PI adds that it would be great, but I think an independent solution for WM that does not rely on Pocket Outlook would be far better. Additional suggestions for this app: -Phone number/Email address recognition in the notes field. So I could click on a number and launch a phone call, etc. -The ability to add/remove stars from the task list with a single tap (hopefully the same for the check/completion box), and additional actions by tap and hold popup menu.
Dave	Posted: Sep 22, 2009 Score: 0 Reference Dave Posted: Sep 22, 2009 Score: 0 Reference I asked Alex over twitter today if we could expect the sync app in 6mos or 12mos and this was his reply. Hope its true. "we are actually looking at it now that pi9 is done. So < 6 mnths." Both of those suggestions you say are available in 9 which was just been launched as a "stealth" release. He posted the link on twitter and his website.
Anders	Posted: Sep 22, 2009 Score: 0 Reference Anders Posted: Sep 22, 2009 Score: 0 Reference Yeah, I got PI9. I understand what you're saying. However, my point is that there is no way PI WM can support Status, Context, Tags, Folder, Goal, Notes, Start Time, Start Date, Due Time, Due Date, and Notes. The database they work with just isn't robust enough. Now it is possible that they could write that stuff all into PI itself, but I'm not sure if they would do that, at least not at first. Anyway, it will be cool if they add that to PI, but it would still be nice to have a Toodledo-centric option as well, and I really don't want to let this thread get too far off the original topic. There are a number of threads on WM in general where we could continue this discussion. I believe I even started a thread a while ago when WebIS announced they were planning Toodledo sync for PI WM.

Anders	Posted: Sep 22, 2009 Score: 0 Reference Anders Posted: Sep 22, 2009 Score: 0 Reference Brian, when you say you plan to utilize all features of the API, does that include the Toodledo Notebook as well. Because that would be pretty sweet.
Dave	Posted: Sep 22, 2009 Score: 0 Reference Dave Posted: Sep 22, 2009 Score: 0 Reference I am good either way, as long as I don't need Outlook anymore. It would be cool if there was a taskjot type app for WinMo. Maybe with the release of 6.5 and the app store some folks will make one.
BRIAN	Posted: Sep 25, 2009 Score: 0 Reference BRIAN Posted: Sep 25, 2009 Score: 0 Reference I haven't looked closely at the notebook functions yet, but I intend to. Its not something I use so it may be in a later version.
