And the attached timer adds some soft accountability - why have I spent an hour on something that I thought could be done in 20 minutes? This easily lets me see if I’m biting off more than I can chew for the day. the ability to add estimated time while on desktop. Anything you want to do can be done in less than a second and you feel like a ninja. the masterful keyboard shortcuts on desktop. Other managers often only have due dates, which makes it hard to differentiate between “have to do this tomorrow” and “can do this tomorrow”. Something can’t be done until next week? No problem, just defer it. the differentiation between start and end dates. the combination of tagging and custom views - for instance, all tasks marked today + start of the day, to track what I need to do at the start of the day, or on the phone, or on the go. Other managers force you to decide what’s a “project” and what’s a “task”. THL makes it as easy as writing a bullet list. It’s most natural for me to add high level tasks and then later break them out into subtasks at will. If you do most of your work there it’s worth considering the joint system.
THE HIT LIST APP MAC
The iOS version is solid in its own right but it’s the Mac version that it’s a companion to that really shines.
I’ve tried nearly every major task manager and this is my permanent companion. The Hit List is remarkable in how it combines simplicity with extraordinary power. Would give the app 5 stars if this small correction was made! Overall, the app is great for my purposes. So the checklist printout seems workable, just not as nice as the on-screen presentation with the categories broken out. However, when you send the view to email, in order to get a printable checklist, the data is correct, but will not be in the same order as the view and will not have the category title grouping the tasks. The views also break out the tasks under a category title, which is great. The results seen ‘on-screen’ in the Inbox, Today and Upcoming views are correct, and complete if you have made date assignments, and Folder/List assignments. Further work with the app to understand what it’s doing shows that printing is working pretty good, accurate in general, just not perfect. Well, for whatever reason, the printed checklist I got reverted to the Inbox list, not the correct list that showed up in the preview version. Then I sent to email (using Share) so I could get a printable copy. Well right off, the preview looked perfect (ordered by ‘List’ option) - upcoming items were properly allocated to Inbox, and my designated folder/file designations, Wow, looks great - just what I wanted. Tried to print ‘Today’ tasks - worked ok - tasks were accounted for in mailed list properly for printing. Then made assignments to folders/lists and added dates. Was able to print a nice list of all items placed in Inbox - great. The project/file/list/task structure was perfect for my set-up needs. Tagging/labeling has added potential that I haven’t explored yet. Task time assignment and accomplishment tracking was adequate.
Especially liked that sub tasking was native and easy. Loved that it was quite intuitive with just exploring solving most of my issues. Searched thru most of the major available ‘To Do’ related apps, read functionality, looked at websites, read reviews, downloaded a couple prospects - mostly disappointed - either too expensive, lacked the desired features I wanted (a good printing capability, particularly), or over sophisticated for my current personal needs ( not working in a team-share-collaborate environment).īut, I found ‘The Hit List’, which sounded to cover most of my needs, though not as high rated as others.
