App of the Week: Things

Task management suite Things is a productivity app operating under the “Getting Things Done” methodology, and on an award-winning, simple interface.

Tasks can be subdivided into sections, creating organized silos of to-dos accessible from all devices with the Things Cloud functionality. Naturally, chronology plays a big part in the process, so tasks can be set for “today,” “next” or scheduled for a future date, and all are tagged for easy search.

Other fantastic features include a daily review, where to-dos scheduled for today are automatically floated to the top of the list, and a customizable workflow that contextualizes—and personalizes—all projects and activities.

Things is available for iOS in the iTunes store.
