OmniFocus for Mac 3.2

January 14, 2019

Requires macOS 10.13

OmniFocus 3.2 adds support for background notifications in macOS Mojave, restores support for repeats specified in minutes, and fixes bugs.

  • Notifications (Requires macOS Mojave) — OmniFocus for Mac now supports the same notification types as OmniFocus for iOS. You can be notified at the time an item is deferred until or due, or at the latest time you should start (due time minus estimated duration). There is also a custom option that lets you set a notification for some amount of time before the item’s due time—or at a completely arbitrary time. Due, Deferred, and Latest Start notifications can be made the default for all items via OmniFocus Preferences; notifications for specific items can be configured in the Notifications Inspector.
  • Preferences — Added a Notifications preference pane for macOS Mojave users, reorganized the Badges preference pane, and moved the Today Widget preferences to a new Extensions preference pane. Renamed the Synchronization preference pane to Sync.
  • Repeats — You can once again configure a repeat using an interval specified in Minutes.
  • Customize Toolbar — Fixed a problem with this sheet’s Done button when there were enough toolbar items to make it taller than the screen height.
  • Encryption — OmniFocus now offers recovery instructions when encountering a problem where data on the server is encrypted with an unknown key (this previously resulted in an unrecoverable “No Key in Slot” error).
  • Free Viewer — Fixed a problem where the notice bar that alerts you that OmniFocus is running in Free Viewer mode did not appear in direct builds.
  • Perspectives — Fixed a problem where actions would disappear from “Entire Projects” custom perspectives as soon as a project was assigned, instead of correctly waiting for clean up.
  • Today Widget — Fixed a problem in the Today Widget that could result in an OmniFocus crash.
  • VoiceOver — Made several improvements to VoiceOver support in OmniFocus.
  • Documentation — Updated the in-app help and added a link to Inside OmniFocus to the Help menu.
  • Smaller Fixes and Improvements — Including crash fixes.

OmniFocus for iOS 3.1.8

December 21, 2018

Requires iOS 11.3, watchOS 4

  • Sync — OmniFocus now recovers from “Reference of object which could not be resurrected” errors by moving orphaned items to the Inbox (Actions) or the top level of Projects (Projects and Folders) or Tags (Tags).

OmniFocus for Mac 3.1.4

December 20, 2018

Requires macOS 10.13

  • Sync — OmniFocus now recovers from “Reference of object which could not be resurrected” errors by moving orphaned items to the Inbox (Actions) or the top level of Projects (Projects and Folders) or Tags (Tags).

OmniFocus for iOS 3.1.7

November 20, 2018

Requires iOS 11.3, watchOS 4

  • Encryption — OmniFocus now offers recovery instructions when encountering a problem where data on the server is encrypted with an unknown key (formerly “No Key in Slot").
  • Notifications — Fixed a problem where completing an action from a notification when OmniFocus wasn’t running failed. The most common scenario involved OmniFocus being force quit—which can still prevent OmniFocus from syncing in the background, and is not advised.
  • Perspectives — Fixed a problem where setting an icon on the same perspective from two different devices could cause an “Unable to Save” error.

OmniFocus for Mac 3.1.3

November 15, 2018

Requires macOS 10.13

  • Tags — Fixed a problem where editing a context in OmniFocus 2 could result in lost tag assignments during a database rebuild–such as when updating to a new release. This release repairs databases that were affected by this issue and prevents further lost tag assignments. Any tag assignments already lost will need to be reapplied; we’re very sorry for the inconvenience!
  • Crash — Fixed a crash related to color spaces.
  • Repeats — Fixed a problem where dates on the children of repeating items would not be correctly incremented upon repeat.
