Come back
Streamlined and awesome.
Once I began using Things exclusively for actionable items, I realized that was more robust than I needed. I sought a leaner, more streamlined app to manage my ToDo list with only a minimal amount of organization. And then I found DoNext.
I appreciate the stripped-down and powerful functionality, as well as the minimal user interface. It's just what I needed to help me actively manage my ToDo list. Oh, and the recent feature of the automatic shuffling of tasks in each area helps keep the list fresh--useful for some of us who may ignore areas of the list and focus only on newly-added tasks. Stoked.
This is not for GTD at all
Update to reply for developer response what is lacking in GTD:
- Sorry I can not do that work. Just read the book and will figure out, or look at Omnifocus or Nirvana apps
Response from developer
Thanks for your feedback. Could you tell me what feature you are were expecting? In GTD terminology DoNext focuses on the next physical steps (like „search for flight tickets to Paris“) on context lists (e.g. @home, @office, @waiting-for). I regularly get feedback from users happily using DoNext as part of their GTD System. Thanks for replying. You mentioned OmniFocus and Nirvana. Both are great tools that many GTDers I know are using happily. OmniFocus combines project planing and context lists in one tool. Nirvana supports context lists as well through the use of labels, but also allows project planing, scheduling and more. DoNext has a different philosophy by focusing on context lists. It helps me to have a dedicated tool for my next actions and quickly switching contexts using the keyboard. I do project planing separately in other apps. David Allen in most of his software specific Setup Guides recommends to consider not linking next actions and projects. After talking to hundreds of people and testing both approaches for years, I found that productivity can improve, if you have different apps for next actions (DoNext) and higher altitude planing. If you give me more details about your workflow, I will consider it when developing new features. Looking forward to hearing from you.
Beste minimalistische Todo Liste
Ich benutze die App um nur die Todos
vor mir zu haben, die ich momentan durchführen kann. Wenn ich nach Hause komme, gehe ich auf die Home-Liste und fange an abzuhaken. Am Anfang war ich skeptisch, eine zusätzliche App nur für nächste Schritte zu haben. Inzwischen benutze ich DoNext immer wenn ich entscheide, was ich als nächstes mache. Fühlt sich erfrischend fokusiert an. Meine Projekte plane ich in anderen Tools. Das Design ist sehr aufgeräumt. Schön finde ich auch, dass abgehakte Task über Nacht verschwinden.
Wer sich kurz Zeit nimmt die Grundlagen der Tastaturbedienung zu lernen, findet in dieser App das perfekte Werkzeug für seine Todos.
Missing project heading
Response from developer
Thanks for your feedback. DoNext focuses on next-action lists. The app moved away from project lists, since they add overhead to the workflow. You could create a list called PROJECTS. You can read more about the reasons for not using a project list in your tasks system on: donext.app/project-list-no-more If you give me more details about how you use projects, I will consider it when developing new features. Looking forward to hearing from you.
