7/4/2023 0 Comments Workflowy for mac![]() I need to see it, and honestly having this smart technology give me updates is just really a beautiful integration for busy people doing things everywhere.Īllow me to add one step of complication :) I can't see a list of numbers and translate them into three weeks from now very easily. You folks with your dates+friday to the whathaveyou of next month, I see that works for you, but my brain doesn't work in numbers. I find all those other apps to be confusing, overbearing, and no matter how 'user friendly' they are, nothing is as intuitive as the nesting list-ability that workflowy has. I know people have this fear of google having their information (ha ha ha- google doesn't care about you or your grocery list) So perhaps making plug-in options that work with google calendar and reminders as well as some casual in app general calendar to link nodes to, some kind of TaskFlowy additional but non-invasive option, if you will. Write your answer on the back of this page.For someone who has many projects on the line that need to be shared with different people and stay on task on a schedule, calendar and reminders integration of SOME sort is the one thing keeping me from utilizing Workflowy as my ultimate task life/work organizer. If you try this, let me know how it worked out for you.ĭo you have an even better way to capture quick thoughts with Workflowy? Now that the hard part is over, you can file your new ideas whenever you’re ready.īut you definitely aren’t going to lose them or forget about them. It’s got a copy of the same script 1 I use every day to import brainstorm sessions into Workflowy. If that sounds useful to you, check the footnotes down below. That will trigger a script which will scan your Reminders app and move your new ideas into Workflowy one by one.Īfter a second or two, all your ideas will be safe and sound in Workflowy. So then you’ll sit down at your Mac, go up to the menu bar, and click on Move Reminders to Workflowy. 2️⃣ Copy over your ideas with this one weird script (hint: □ AppleScript □ is your friend)Īs soon as you get that alert when you get home, you’ll be like: The alert will remind you to get all those ideas into Workflowy. There’s nothing worse then knowing you had a million dollar idea but can’t for the life of you remember what it was. Plus, if you’re anything like me, you’ll breathe a big sigh of relief. You’ll get an alert for every idea you had since you were away from home.Īnd you know what’s probably the best part about these alerts? The thrill of discovering your new idea all over again. (This only works if you set up your address in your contacts, so don’t forget to do that.) Now when you get home you’ll get an alert… That “ when I get home” part is the trick. “Remind me to eat dinner with my granny when I get home” Keeping that in mind, I think there’s a way to save ideas that works even better. What if you forget you even had an idea in the first place? Now, this already works great for capturing a thought, but there’s just one problem. “ Remind me to eat dinner with my granny”Įverything you say after “ Remind me to” gets stored in the Reminders app.Īnd THAT means that as soon as you get home, it’s waiting for you on your computer. …and then you just tell it what you want to remember. …or even press the button (crown) on the side of the watch… …raise it to your mouth and just start speaking… The Apple Watch has an ultra slick way of setting reminders with your voice. ![]() 1️⃣ Jot your idea with Apple Watch (hint: □ Siri □ is your friend) ![]() Here’s what’s been working great for me lately. Then brainstorming on the go is actually really simple. In this post, I’m going to show you my exact 2-step process for capturing ideas on the go. Luckily, there’s a way to have the best of both worlds. …are also the times when your hands are tied □□ The times when you’re at peak free association energy… □⚡️ Unfortunately, my best ideas come while driving and Workflowy is the worst at this.īrainstorming while driving (or flying or hiking or sailing or) is great for: Workflowy is probably the most flexible project management software out there. □ Driving with Workflowy (never miss a thought!)
