My personal experience is 100% in line with this, and it's beyond me why none of the major todo list apps feature drag & drop calendar integration.
I'm reluctantly using Things, and the closest thing it has is due dates and "hide this task until that date".
Surely, it wouldn't be that hard to implement a daily planner view that brings up your day's calendar in the right pane, a list of upcoming tasks in the left one, and lets you drag them across ?
I feel orphaned ever since Google acqui-hired then shut down the only app that really nailed this workflow : Timeful. Its AI-based autoscheduling was only a bonus, the UI was marvelous.
See https://gmail.googleblog.com/2015/05/time-is-on-your-sidewelcoming-timeful.html https://gmail.googleblog.com/2015/05/time-is-on-your-sidewel... or for some background info: https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/on-leadership/wp/2014/08/14/dan-ariely-wants-to-help-you-manage-your-time/ https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/on-leadership/wp/2014/08...
Parts of Timeful have been added to the Google Calendar app but it's lacking, and nowhere near as close to a complete, magical and satisfying system as Timeful was.
More than a year later, I'm still desperately looking for good alternatives. "Plan" (https://getplan.co/ https://getplan.co/) looks promising but not quite polished enough, and "Skedpal" seems overkill.
Anyone else in this situation ?
- ethiclub 10y agoIQTELL.com has 'virtual calendars'. Anything with a due date appears on the calendar automatically. Unfortunately you can't sync these calendars with any other app. Alternatively you can also add an action to an actual calendar manually. Yes, I have been looking for a split pane drag and drop solution too. No dice. Regardless, IQTELL is so powerful though that no matter when I find an elegant solution, it falls short in other areas anyway.
- cocolos 10y agoAgreed! I've looked for alternatives but they all miss the mark. I was considering building my own but haven't found the time.
- moon_priestess 10y agoFantastical 2 is the only good solution I've been able to find for both calendaring and reminders. It lacks many of the features of OmniFocus but I find the trade-off to be worthwhile.
