Great - A Couple Features Away From Perfect – Doit.im HD Review

I almost didn't write this review because it would echo almost everything that's already been said about the app: beautiful interface, well thought out GTD implementation, etc. The biggest thing for me is the Web app, which is amazing. I work for a typical large corporation, and I just got tired waiting for other developers to get out of their Mac OS fantasyland and realize that many of us who own an iPhone are forced to use Windows by our employers. The one thing I didn't see the most recent reviews mention is (@DEV - FEATURE REQUEST FROM PRO USER ;) the lack of dragging and dropping to reorder tasks (a la Any.do or Appigo's ToDo). It does exist within the "Doit Now" section of Today, but nowhere else in the app. I like that you can filter the views and group by certain attributes, but it would be so much more freeing just to be able to do it anywhere in the app. Moreover, it's actually based on the sound GTD principle of "intuitive" prioritization. The other thing I found a little bit silly was the LACK of an option to have App Badge = Doit now tasks. I mean, that seems to be one of the hallmarks of the app ... you're in your Next Actions, you click on the little lightning bolt, and it pops up in Today under a special "Doit now" heading. Which is awesome. So why not let the user configure the app badge so it corresponds to the number of tasks in that bucket? I would also echo what the others said on Reminders integration. Re: iCal, the thing that would make this app KILLER for me is to see my Calendar events IN THE DOIT.IM APP under the Today and Tomorrow views. That way, as I am planning my days, I can see what's coming up for appointments and how much time I realistically have to check off my to-do's without ever having to leave the app. NEED TO GET ICAL SYNC, GCAL SYNC IS CLEARLY BROKEN AS OTHER USERS HAVE WRITTEN ABOUT!
