OmniFocus 4.3 TestFlight builds now available

Hi folks! I’ve just started the OmniFocus 4.3 TestFlight. The initial OmniFocus 4.3 TestFlight builds contain a number of bug fixes that we’d like to get feedback on, but we do not yet have any of the “feature” work planned for this milestone ready for public testing.

If you previously signed up to test OmniFocus 4.2, you should already have access to OmniFocus 4.3 builds in TestFlight. If you’d like to sign up for this TestFlight you can do so here: https://testflight.apple.com/join/TKbgc273
