<p>Dave Messent, OmniFocus product manager; Tim Ekl, OmniFocus engineer; and Jim Correia, OmniFocus engineer join the show for a special episode to talk about OmniFocus 3 for iOS and several new features: flexible inspectors, enhanced repeating tasks, batch editing, and the interleaved Forecast view.</p>
<p>In OmniFocus 3 for iOS, inspectors are now customizable: you can make them work the way you want them to work.</p>
<p>We’ve given repeated tasks more real-world options — such as the last weekday of the month — and we’ve applied progressive disclosure to the interface so they’re easy to set up.</p>
<p>Batch editing — which makes making bulk changes easier — was brought over from the Mac to iOS.</p>
<p>And in the Forecast view we’ve interleaved tasks and calendar events, which makes it easy to plan and to see how your day fits together.</p>
