3/17/2019 0 Comments Calendar Organizer App For MacHi there from Sydney, Australia, TiPbers! This is my very first post. What I want to ask is whether any of you have opinions on what is the best organizer app currently available for the iPhone. I can't find any good *recent* discussions of this that have helped me. So far I've been using Pocket Informant Lite and I'm wondering whether it's worth the bucks to upgrade to the paid version. My questions: > Are there any apps that do a better job than PI Lite of syncing contacts, calendar and to do lists with the cloud (e.g., a gmail account), with push notifications of alarms to my iPhone 3G, and with to do lists integrated with the calendar? > Is there anything that lets me search *all* fields of contacts for a particular phone number, name or note (preferably without creating a duplicate of the built-in contacts list)? >Will this magic program be as flexible as PI with setting alarms (e.g., choosing exactly how many days/weeks/months/years before an event I'll get a reminder)? Thanks so much in advance! Any help will be greatly appreciated Jim. Aug 12, 2018 - Here's a look at the best calendar app for iPhone. Calendar apps for iPhone are a tough thing to advise for because different people use. I'm still using PI. It's not great, but Apple has prevented great from existing on this platform. I tried SmartTimePro and found it greatly lacking. Agendus in its current incarnation is way behind, but since SplashData has just taken the reigns, they are working on a new version that promises to be sweet. I no longer remember any differences between the lite version and the full version of PI other than the ability to sync all forward and all past events. Brickman, what does OmniFocus do that PI doesn't? Thanks to everyone who replied to my post. I've been offline for the last week or two, so have only just caught up with your suggestions. I had heard excellent reports about OmniFocus, but my concern was that it was mainly aimed at Mac users. Does anyone know whether there's a desktop app for Windows that will sync with OmniFocus? Or at least a cloud-based service (e.g., gmail, MobileMe)? The App Store entry for it is silent on this issue. Also, does it have something like the push notifications from gmail that you can get in PI? ![]() Thanks again -- great forum! Thanks to everyone who replied to my post.

Thanks again -- great forum!OmniFocus does not have a cloud-based service or a Windows app. The closest is that you can set it up to backup to MobileMe's iDisk. As far as alarms, there are no push alerts. Instead, you can (through a somewhat involved process) have it create and save a calendar file (.ics) on your iDisk and then configure your Mail/Contact/Calendar services to open said file as a calendar, allowing on device alerts (no push, not dependent on network connection). Downsides include inability to change the alert tone for just those tasks, and if you have a lot of task reminders, it clutters your calendar. As far as alarms, there are no push alerts.
