I genuinely mean no offense, but we used a similar app in our software design class to demonstrate how not to build software. Hopefully the pending UI overhaul will provide some more value to users who've already paid the $49.

Not a "real" application. This is a Filemaker database turned into a run-time application, hence the Windows / OS X functionality. As far as I can tell, there is no mobile version, which really negates any usefulness of this app. Compared to other productivity apps (Omnifocus, Things, or the awesome TheHitList), this program is HORRIBLE!! The interface is extremely un-mac-like and stressed me out just looking at it. The price is crazy, even at a discount. Look for The Hitlist (in Beta form, abandoned software for the most part, but fully functional, supremely awesome, and free since it's still in beta). Unfortunately, there's no mobile version of The Hitlist since it's been abandoned.

Yet another GTD based app. Why oh why? David Allen created a cult called GTD - based on false assumptions and dogmas that, because they're unattainable ideals, creates a movement of disciples, who are never fully "there" yet. Hence, still hooked, and on the lookout for the fix, because they feel they need a fix. They don't - they should just create a system that works for them, instead of trying to "do GTD" which is only good for making you a miserable robot. Let's have some software that is NON-GTD that offers other solutions than GTD. Why are there zero Franklin/Covey based apps? What about some AutoFocus apps? Do-it-tomorrow apps? Apps for people with ADHD-issues? It's all GTD, GTD, GTD. It is not the holy grail of productivity. that's just what David Allen made it seem like.

I only spent about 5 minutes playing with Life Manager Pro and then I zapped it. Why? The interface. I was immediately reminded of bdContacts which I also rejected because of its interface. My problem is that I expect GTD software to look like Things. By look like, I mean: the overall appearance, the icon, the subtle shading, the simplicity. I expect calendar software to look like BusyCal. Life Manager Pro might be a great product. I just can't get past the ugly look and feel.

Yeah, I'm really having trouble getting past the interface. I can deal with the plain look, but the controls move around from screen to screen, making me work harder to understand what is going on. This software seemed like a great idea, but the usability issues make this discouraging to learn.
