Integrations · OmniFocus

Today’s plan, from the OmniFocus tasks still open.

HWH is free on the Mac App Store. It pulls remaining OmniFocus tasks from your Inbox, a folder, or a project into one ordered plan for today, next to your mail and calendar. The connection is AppleScript on the Mac, with no network call. It unlocks as you use HWH, or with the Founder Pack.

Native macOS app.

Who it is for.

Use it when the work you still have open is in OmniFocus, and you want that work in today’s plan.

Use it if

  • The list you care about is the Inbox, a folder, or a project.
  • Notes, dates, and tags should come across with those tasks.
  • You do those edits in the plan, rather than switching back to OmniFocus for each one.

Leave it if

  • You organise the day as OmniFocus perspectives.
  • You need the app on Windows, iPhone, or the web.
  • You want a replacement for OmniFocus.

Questions.

Which OmniFocus tasks does HWH import?

The ones still open in the Inbox, a folder, or a project.

Can HWH complete or add an OmniFocus task?

Yes. A new task is created in OmniFocus, completing one marks it complete there, and you can append a note.

Does the OmniFocus connection use the network?

No. AppleScript runs on the Mac, so this source makes no network call.

When does the OmniFocus connection unlock?

HWH is free on the Mac App Store, and you can use it without paying. You earn points by completing tasks and hitting daily goals, spend them in the in-app Store, and start with an opening balance. Connections to other apps unlock as you use HWH, or with the Founder Pack. The Founder Pack is $29.99, once, if you want everything unlocked now. You do not have to buy it, and it is not a subscription.
