Hello everyone and welcome back to another video it is Francesco here

So in this video today, we are chatting things I loved about

Things 3 now I didn't want to actually include it as that title

so it might be slightly different but I'm gonna chat through some of the things that I loved about things 3 stop saying that

I'm gonna run over the features that I particularly loved as well as sort of the micro experiences inside of things 3

They really did draw me in as well as what kept me there to some extent

And things that I sort of compared in my head against to do it

So I'll be showing you my screen in second and we'll be running through to some of those features

Of course If you guys don't know I've been using what I used pins 3 for the last

Three months and I'm backward to do this now

Which I did for video 1 but as you can imagine I definitely moved there for something. I wanted a good project experience

So I definitely saw things free as a way to fix that with the deadline function as well as the completion function

I was almost there because it had those functions

No, like I ever mentioned in the comment on the to do is to bank it backward to do this video

He said you were out to do this because of the timing experience and he's a hundred percent, right?

that is a reason I'm back and that's the thing at the biggest flaw that I think things so he didn't have for me so

Let's start out with some of the features and experiences inside of things 3

I don't recommend that you'd go for specifically one platform because if you get an Android device

You're not gonna be there but the Mac and iOS experience on things story was fantastic

it is something that I was very happy with because I have a Mac and

now the design was some of the one of the things that I

adored inside of things free the sort of clear design as well as to focus on like just

Was really attractive to me and I found the experience super easy to use now

That's something that I don't think a lot of the bigger applications like to do or OmniFocus sort of

And Omni and things three actually delivers on that a really beautiful design

particularly enjoyed in the iOS experience is once the Mac one to some extent is the

Gestures and being able to quickly add some into your inbox just by dragging your thumb over

Or even being able to add it to your timeline not timeline. Sorry your task list

Just made it. So gorgeous views. It was one of the best experience and best experiences

I've used in terms of gestures now when I actually got back on todoist

I started like dragging myself over in the attempt to dry that

because they don't have the jesters experience and some of the things that I wish to do is would bring in because it would make

That iOS application so much easier to experience and use on a daily basis

One of the final notes on the gestures is when you are able to multi select stuff

You just sort of tap tap tap tap tap and bring it along and multi select it and make a multiple action on it

what I particularly like about the iOS experience is it almost at some point was like using a desktop experience because they

condense the experience in a way that did make an intrusive but made it really easy to use now moving on to another feature this

I find myself for example during the day getting all my workday stuff done

And then I have a few things for the evening whether there's social stuff or actual work stuff

There wasn't really a way that I could separate that into doers and of course then through delivered that would someone called this evening it

Separates it from today but gives you this different section to plan up stuff there

So for example if me and Becca had some work stuff to do or even look at how space staff or something like that

We could easily add back to this evening area and be able to have more

context or even like when I'm going shopping on the way home to hand back in this evening makes it just and separates it from

The work you don't want to see like what especially for me like a use personal professional together

Like five really awesome work tasks and then one shopping list and I'm like, what? Why are you there?

So we're moving on to calendar calendar events

You have the ability inside of things for you to add calendar vents to the top of today as well as upcoming

This was one of the features not really did it enjoy what I started, but I loved by the end of it

It's a really intuitive feature, especially if you're looking to remind yourself of meetings, and you don't necessarily want to add them to your calendar

Of course that can be too intrusive like maybe some people don't want a fix tab at the top

To ruin that sort of things through experience and that's probably what my first go-to was

But I really enjoyed the calendar function and I wish something to do his tab is a fixed option

But in is an optional option - so the next thing is the windows experience, and this is not platform Windows Windows

So in things free, you can create multiple tabs or windows

Now this was great particularly when it came to planning

I've dumped loads of stuff for my inbox and then dragged it over to my upcoming

- plot in items and then I would do the same with today and I can reshuffle my week fairly fast

Now we do this on a Thursday like Thursday is my day where I pretty much cordon a my week ahead

and it just gives me a bit of time to sort of get ready for that week ahead in advance and

what I've tend to do in what I did with things free is

plot that all out using the upcoming tab and having the inbox happen today to have open so I had like

Multiple things and great thing is you can drag them across to those things

It doesn't damage the experience and that's available on Mac and I highly recommend

That inside of the experience now projects was sort of a County climax

I used projects for a while, but then I felt after a couple of days that I actually didn't need projects projects

How are what pretty amazing side of things through you have the deadlines abilities as well as a whole host of date functions due date

Functions and it looked great on that left hand side, especially for the wedding like we were plotting out tasks inside of there

Particularly just because it had that deadline function as well as headers like you could create headers inside there

That's nothing. It can't do it inside it to do it

So it was sort of fucking anticlimax in the end

I came there for projects and didn't really find much value and subtasks was particularly something

I really enjoyed of course notes I was talking about there's a bit of a sort of confusion about notes, but some task was great

I really do applaud that experience. It was a lot less

Clunkier than todoist and it just was so much easier to input them as well

Visual overview as well or something to take away of all of these features. I loved I did a medium post

So I'll put that one description below and it has all of those nine or eight

Features that are enjoyed about things through zoom talking about the non features a sort of experience sort of the inbox

That was one of the features that really bugged me. So for example when I want to add a new task to the

Bottom of my inbox because that's tend to be where I process

So I start from the top and finish in the bottom and slowly work through

Because the top indicates the dates and you rounded the furthest away and the newest date should be at the bottom

whenever I did something to my inbox or a note it would go to the top and I'd be like I won this at the

bottom because I'm gonna slowly process it down because that's
