It’s not that much time to do the context switching and works well. Since we have time constraints of doing chores if we have a lot of things to do we may blow off the less critical ones if more important ones take more time than expected. Right now I just check the local town context on the drive to the city (I am a passenger in the car, don’t do this and drive) and change the context to the city and back again if we don’t get the action done while there. (As an example of its power, you can automate tons of stuff with their URL Scheme support but in my many years using Omnifocus, I've never taken advantage of that functionality.

(Our bank is local and only has a branch in the 2 local towns, for example) That way I could see errands that can be done in either place easily. Omnifocus Pro is still the most powerful personal organization tool out there, but possibly because of that additional power, it's more difficult to learn and use. My only use case is to flag the local town errands I can also do in the city with both places and vice versa. While it’s pretty clear that I can only get a lot of things at the further away city (which requires a whole day as we’ve got 3+ hours of drive time to get to and from) while there I can also do most of the errands from the local towns. The far away towns are where we do major shopping once a month. 1 is the 2 closest towns, sort of the run to town places less than 10 miles away and one is 2 towns that are a 1.5 hour drive to get there. I have a single action list Errands and I have 2 locations as contexts. For the last month or so I have been using Omnifocus as my main task manager and organiser, I have been getting an absolute shedload of value from it and I.

I can’t really think of an instance where I needed a tag with a single exception. We will go on in this article to talk in detail about each of the default perspectives that makes up OmniFocus and tips and tricks to make the learning process of using.

I’m not a tagger by nature, so I’m not even sure I will use tags at all. You can learn how to use OmniFocus if you understand the gist of how its main perspective works in the forecast, inbox, flagged, projects, nearby, tags and review perspectives. I’m curious what other people are thinking about doing.
