I understand that making a good app is hard, and don't want to undermine your effort, but $150 for a todo app... ouch.

#12Is there a story about what mobile access might look like? Would be good to have some kind of access on the go even if the macOS app is the daily driver.
The mobile app is linked on the page: https://godspeedapp.com/ios

#13Love it. I've been increasingly dissatisfied with Things.
Specific things I'm looking for in a Todo manager:
1. iPhone Mac apps and syncing
2. Hotkeys + Speed
3. Shared lists (you don't even mention this until I get into Guides, but I love it)
4. Smart lists
5. Nesting
6. Pasting images
7. Projects + subtasks
8. An inbox
9. Snoozing to the future
10. Focus mode (gets rid of everything else EXCEPT for the current task... really nice as a reminder when I start a task, hop into a meeting, and flip back to the todo list to see what I'm meant to be working on and it's staring me in the face vs. seeing a long list of items). Don't think you support this - first saw it in Amazing Marvin.
Concerns:
1. How painful will it be to import from Things?
2. What if the app goes away? I don't want to lose my stuff or switch again, it's a pain. How big is your company? Are you a going concern with real customers or is this a side project that will fall by the wayside?
3. I do love not paying a subscription for Things. I like the $150 one-off fee for 18m. Would consider that.
Regardless, going to play with it today. Seems very promising!

#14Can I have it only sync through iCloud? I'm just concerned that I buy the lifetime version and then the Godspeed API disappears after a couple of years.

With no guarantee about future pricing models

Right like an editor and text is mouse free too and I can grep it with regex or sync it anywhere and have it on any device too.

Pay no mind to this guy/gal. S/he's not your ideal customer.
$150 once for an app to organize your work and personal life is a screaming bargain.

#18Ahhhh shit... this might break me away from Omnifocus. From first blush, you've hit everything I need to move over, plus good keyboard support which OF has always lacked.
If there's a taskpaper or other simple text-based import format, I'd switch in a second.
Edit: looking closer, you're totally going for OF specifically! Same price point, and I think nearly-feature matched. Good job!

#19Looks good.
An important question: can we sync it with our own method (e.g. Dropbox or SyncThing or whatever) or is there a hardcoded sync to the company's Cloud?
It's a matter of privacy and freedom to move the data as we see fit.

#20Just curious if it supports blockers and dependencies? Where one task can block multiple others, and where a task can be blocked by multiple others?
