I like the blackberry version more. On android, when I edit a task and want to change the date, I can't see the day of the week.
Been using it on blackberry and now on android. Dev. Plese add the opton of email tasks.
Viira works seamlessly with Outlook and BlackBerry Calendar. Great App to keep you organised.
The app has a good, clean design which I find easy to follow. It has a lot of GTD functionality that other, more basic to-do apps don't. I use it with the companion Outlook add-in and desktop app which sync flawlessly. The app is a must have for anyone serious about GTD.
Very effective and simple to use especially with the companion PC software.
Excellent app to manage projects, tasks & deadlines. Based on the book, Getting
Not for me. Too simple for my needs otherwise would be fine
This app was excellent on blackberry...on Android there have been a few issues that were not experienced on bberry, but have been resolved by the support team in recent update. They were VERY responsive. They have also promised to add additional functionality in the near term to increase the effectiveness of this app. With the recent fixes...This is still the most useful GTD app out there.
As of nov 2011, viira looks like a good no-frills first attempt with great potential. There are better GTD apps, but keep your eye on this one.
Great app,love it mostly because of its simplicity! The simpler the better! Clean and light interface, which implements d.Allen's gtd!
This is IMO & so far, the *only* f usable, free app I've found that will actually support GTD. I've tried a lot of 'em, too. Only 4 stars because doing a weekly review will be a PITA. Still: nice one.
Interesting, how to set reminders?
Excellent App for implementing GTD. Now relying on it more each day. Using this app helps me feel more in control of my busy lifestyle.
