Now, all that’s missing from Things for me is, Areas vs Projects, and the ability to add deadlines to projects! Also please, Dark mode with different accent colors. I can’t believe how long this is taking
Great video! Excited to see how the Doist folks are approaching timeblocking. My rule of thumb is that if something will take me +30 mins I put it on my calendar. Thank you for the super quick turnaround on this video Peter.
Awesome!! I usually use sub-tasks due dates for "When" prepare the main task, and the "Deadline" for the due date of the main task. For example: - Send Project Summary due in 3 days at 11.p.m. (main task) - - - Prepare Project Summary due today at 4.p.m for 2 hours. (subtask) Also, I add the Deadline date of the main task in the Description of the sub-task, so I know when the main task needs to be ready for complete. And when I check all the sub-tasks done, the main task is also marked as complete 💯✅.
I've pretty much switched to using Todoist as my calendar, so I'm liking the updates for it... just wish the full calendar view comes to mobile soon too.
Hey Peter! I just copied your setup on my Todoist. And discovered you added an example task about learning Turkish. I'm Turkish. Feel free to reach out to me if you have any questions.
Peter i follow your work for a long time now. One gap that I think that you could fill is on the corporate side. A lot of corporations use Office. So, we have to learn to do all those things in office 365 to get our work done.
Hey Thomaz. Thanks for your suggestion. I think about this from time to time. I realize it's a huge opportunity. I could help lots of people. But there are two challenges for me. First, I don't use any of those apps because I work for myself. It's hard to teach apps you don't normally use. Second, it would dilute my focus. The more apps I produce content on, the more apps I have to stay up to date with. I have limited time and energy, like everyone else. I've also thought about making content about the Google suite of apps, but I think it makes sense for me to focus on Apple stuff, mostly.
@@PeterAkkies I totally agree. I was forced to change from a Mac ecosystem to windows because of my corporate work, I’m really struggling. I’m divided in my personal stuff in the Mac (Things + pages) and my professional in office. I’m thinking to sell my Mac and migrate everything to windows to learn and maintain my focus
I'm still waiting (10 years +) for individual task sharing or alternatively allowing tasks to exist in multiple projects (or both would be better!). Until todoist do this, there is limited scope for team use.
@@PeterAkkies what I mean is similar to what you will be able to to in Todoist, see your calendar events and drag your tasks (from Things) within time blocks.
Yes, I did, just a few days ago. I love HEY but because teaching people how Apple apps work is such a big part of my business, it just made sense to use Apple Mail. Especially now that Apple Intelligence is coming, which I suspect will not integrate with HEY.
It depends on your accent. A lot of British people do distinguish between the two words. A lot of American people don’t. And there is a lot of regional variation there.
What do you prefer exactly? Im going back and forth on both and I’m trying to make sure I make the best decision for the best app for task. I’ve been trying to find a way to timeblock in things 3 but It’s only a reminder time and no way to add the time to do it unless I’m missing something
@@7evintheproducer I use a calendar (Fantastical) to time block, but it should work with Apple Calendar too. If you're on desktop, you can drag a Things 3 task onto your calendar to timeblock
