Omnifocus 4.7 testflight

[thomas34]

@kcase Is there any info about the next TestFlight version?

[kcase]

The roadmap update I posted yesterday has the latest!

@kcase

… OmniFocus 4.7 will introduce three powerful new features: a new “Planned” date type (for specifying the date an item is scheduled for work), the ability to create mutually exclusive tags (handy in a variety of workflows, like prioritization and energy level assignment), and improved repeat functionality (including new support for setting a repeat to end after a specific date or set number of repetitions). As these new features will require a database migration, the OmniFocus team has also spent extensive time polishing and testing the migration process, and we’re just about ready for folks to take OmniFocus 4.7 through its paces in its public test builds.

When 4.7 starts its public test, we’ll have more detail in its release notes (along with an updated version of the reference manual, etc.).

Is that what you were looking for, or is there anything else that you’re specifically curious about?

@kcase Thank you. I‘m really happy about the planned features. Is there an estimated release date for the TestFlight to go live?

Build 4.7 sounds like an exciting one. I’ m particularly interested with the new “planned” data type and your implementation of it. I can imagine that Omnifocus could display tasks with a planned data and time estimate in a more visually appealing way (GANTT chart, foe example). That could be very useful for all the time-blocking users out there.

Hi,
oh my god, that feature I´m waiting for so much as well! Even dependencies between different tasks (like in Clickup) would be great.

For Gantts and dependencies, OmniPlan is fantastic. Though you can get a level of dependency in OF depending on how you set up your structures.
