OmniFocus for iPad 1.6

September 17, 2012

OmniFocus requires iOS 5.1 or later. In order to use Location Reminders, you need to have an iPad 2 or later with 3G or 4G.

OmniFocus for iPad 1.6 includes support for iOS 6, adds TextExpander touch support, Reminders Capture for Siri capable devices running iOS, and various other improvements and bug fixes.

TextExpander touch Support

  • OmniFocus now includes support for TextExpander touch. TextExpander snippets will be expanded in most text fields, in notes, and in search.
  • More info at Smile Software’s website.

Maps & Location

  • Location Reminders in OmniFocus exclusively uses geofencing whenever possible. (In the uncommon case where you’ve exceeded the device’s maximum number of monitored regions, OmniFocus will fall back to using significant location changes as a supplemental mechanism.)
  • Fixed a bug where requesting directions to a context’s location in Maps mode didn’t correctly open the directions in the Maps app on iOS 6.
  • Fixed a crash which occurred when switching between the Map and List views in Maps mode on iOS 6.
  • Fixed a regression where a business search with no results failed to display the no results found indicator.
  • This release restores business search.

Privacy on iOS 6

  • OmniFocus requires permission to access your Reminders to use the Reminders Capture feature.
  • OmniFocus requires permission to access your Calendar to use the Calendar Events feature of Forecast mode.
  • OmniFocus requires permission to access your Contacts in order to assign a contact address as a Context’s location.

Miscellaneous

  • Reminders Capture is now available on Siri-capable devices running iOS 6.
  • Fixed a bug which made it possible to get the notes field into a state where tapping didn’t start an editing session.
  • Fixed a bug which prevented links from being tappable in notes after entering or exiting full screen mode.
  • The Calendar Alarms setup screen now includes instructions for enabling SSL on your calendar subscription. (iOS does not include a mechanism for OmniFocus to enable this automatically.)
  • Omni Sync Server usernames are always lowercase. Sync Setup enforces this now to eliminate the possibility of entering an unusable value.
  • Improved match highlighting in the Context and Project picker on iOS 6.
  • Corrected the appearance of the sidebar toolbar on non-Retina iOS 6 devices.
  • Fixed a bug which would cause a hang when presenting an outline view with flagged items on iOS 6.
  • Fixed the layout of the toolbar of the built-in web browser on iOS 6.
  • The selection style of Forecast’s past section draws overdue only when you have overdue actions in the past.

Localization

  • Corrected the German translation for Review mode.
  • Fixed a problem with the Italian localization where translations for “Day Starts At” and “Day Ends At” were swapped.
  • Fixed a problem with the French localization where the databases incompatible alert had truncated action buttons.
