| Short details | Appigo Todo is a sophisticated to-do list app for the iPhone or iPad. Can be used independently either on iPad or iPhone, or to synchronize tasks with iCal, Outlook, or Toodledo. |
Nirvana has evolved into an excellent personal GTD and GTD solution, worth looking at. Particularly nice is its ability to pause or schedule projects (and all tasks within them) and designate project steps as sequential or simultaneous. You can also star tasks to create an instant "must do today" list as taught in TRO Online training. |
