Two up front caveats:
1. This is an amazing app. I'm just enumerating the things I wish were different.
2. It's totally possible I have missed features. I wasn't part of beta, so have only been using today.
No web component
No durations
No priorities
LOTS of taps to get things done
(e.g. to move Task in Inbox to a date, tap once, tap calendar, tap date, tap SOMEWHERE to close that Task, Click OK to remove notification of movement. 5 taps. Should be 3 max. Pain really felt when scheduling many Inbox tasks to diff dates).
No batch changing Deadlines
Tags not shown on main screen...have to use Quick Find
Filter by tag is cool though
Visually no difference between Projects within Today, This Evening....text all looks the same...no diff colors for example
Only one line shown of each task....this is good and bad. Makes everything MUCH cleaner and more condensed...but can hide key info about task.
Animations take time, slow down input (e.g. click blue Magic Button, animation/lag before you can begin typing)
