I’m finding myself more focused on the note taking than the meeting itself. This sort of feature seems to come at a cost though. Never before has an app helped me be so prepared for my next day. I browse my events for the next day in the calendar summary, directly create notes for meetings I have the next day, and have a template I use to help make sure I’m prepared for said meetings. One area that I have found where Agenda really stands out is in helping me to plan my next day. Week 1 into my own transition from Things 3, and I am optimistic but still a bit hesitant/conflicted. I’ve also noted that the search functionality needs to be better. If/when the functionality is addressed as per my original post - I doubt I’ll look back. Partly because of my concern around losing tasks - but also because I enjoy using it more. I wasn’t doing daily or weekly reviews with the regularity that I do with Agenda. I’ve also found that Things was making me lazy. I share your concern about losing tasks but I’ve built a bit of a hierarchy around that where I check reminders for regular, time-sensitive tasks. I travel a lot for work and to be able to build my agenda around a trip and various meeting has been invaluable Agenda / Timeline driven notes and tasks.The constant switching between Things and Bear et al meant I was losing more than I was keeping across Everything together - notes, attachments, calendar, reminders etc.I’m still not completely extracted from Things - but I haven’t used it for a month (I feel like there should be a support group for that ). I for one am interested to learn about the benefits you experience and the hurdles you encounter. I hope you’ll follow up on this thread with how the transition is going. Some things I would love to see down the road are a tag manager (I find tag structure super helpful, and Things 3.0 had a great one), a quick way to add a note on the fly, and I’m excited for Apple Pencil support! It would also be great to have the ability to hide completed notes/projects.
I love that Agenda has strong task functionality built into an even stronger note-taking platform, but I’m concerned that my tasks will get lost in my notes and overlooked. What’s more, by separately keeping my notes in the Notes app, tasks tend to get lost, and the app itself quickly gets messy. While I need an app that specializes in helping me to prioritize and execute tasks, more and more I find that I’m taking notes in Things 3.0, which it is clearly not it’s forte. For me, I’m torn because Things 3.0 is highly task orientated, while Agenda is highly note-taking orientated. Great thread, and thanks for posting!! I’m struggling with the exact same dilemma and am starting to make the switch myself. Has anyone else made the jump and gone ‘all in’ with Agenda? Until then, I’ll make the best of it - because I’m truly excited by the likelihood of Agenda being my primary Project, Notes and GTD App. Advanced searching such that a saved search in Overview (great feature, by the way) could make Agenda a genuine task management tool.but they shouldn’t be necessary - and, again, get in the way
(The whole alphabetical thing doesn’t work for how I order my workflow) Yes, there are hacks - characters, YYMMDD (date order) etc.
