New iOS 5 Task Functionality…

Oct 19, 2011

I haven’t studied it fully yet, but so far the new Task functionality in iOS 5 looks nifty, but not something to be used with MYN. Why? Because you cannot set up the MYN view. So if you are using Outlook/Exchange, I’d stick with TaskTask on the iPhone or iPad. And use ToodleDo for the non-Exchange world.

Nifty? Well if you use reminders on tasks and use Outlook/Exchange, the new iOS 5 Tasks feature will sync those with the phone (TaskTask does that too by the way). The new iOS Tasks feature also has location awareness. While TaskTask may not have that yet (?), if you are using ToodleDo, their iOS app has had location awareness for a while.

And again, I’d rather you use the MYN views, and this new iOS 5 Tasks app is just too basic to do that.

Here’s an article about the iOS 5 Tasks app:
