ActionComplete Pro

ActionComplete is a family of productivity applications based on David Allen's Getting Things Done (GTD) methodology.

At the core of ActionComplete is management of four types of tasks: Actions (next actions in GTD parlance), Waits (Waiting for), Projects, and Ideas (Someday/Maybe).

The tasks can be assigned three types of metadata: tags, people, and places. Together the metadata form a context that can be easily filtered upon.

People are Google Contacts and the contact record linked to a task can be readily accessed right from ActionComplete.

Places in ActionComplete allow you to attach location context to the tasks. Vicinity view shows the tasks that can be done nearby and suggests geographical features with names similar to ActionComplete place names. E.g. if there are tasks linked to places "WalMart" and "Starbucks" the Vicinity view will show you all nearby WalMarts and Starbucks. From there you can view the Google map of a particular location and use a wide array of functions provided by Google Maps such as GPS-based navigation and user reviews.

ActionComplete Pro supports voice entry for tasks. ActionComplete Pro not only allows you to say the task name. It also understands places, due dates, and reminder times. E.g. saying "paper towels at walmart or target" will produce a task "paper towels" and link it to places "walmart" and "target" creating them as needed. You can also say something like "call john on March 5 at 1430". That will create a task "call john", assign it due date of March 5, and create a reminder on March 5 at 2:30PM.

ActionComplete Pro comes with a configurable home screen widget that can be setup to show Actions, Waits, Projects, or Ideas. The widget allows you to perform the same operations as the main application right from the phone home screen.

Local export and import to/form comma-separated values (CSV) format can be used for backup and restore as well as moving data in and out of ActionComplete.

Convenience features of ActionComplete Pro include assorted shortcuts, Due Today live folder, and integration with the system-wide search.

ActionComplete Pro can be used on its own or seamlessly synchronize with ActionComplete Pro for Web (http://actioncomplete.appspot.com) or ActionComplete for Web (https://actioncomplete-pro.appspot.com).
