Firetask - Project-oriented Task Management (GTD-inspired)
By Gerald Aquila
Open iTunes to buy and download apps.
Description
Firetask is the first task management app to effectively combine the advantages of the classical approach based on priorities and due dates with David Allen's "Getting Things Done®" being specifically designed for the iPhone. Firetask for iPhone syncs wireless with the Mac version over a local WiFi network or with any Firetask app over the Firetask Cloud.
Use the "Today" tab for fast access to tasks due today or the next 5 days as well as to your next actionable task per project. Group tasks by "Categories" or "Projects" including a special "Waiting for" category for tracking tasks you have delegated. Use the "In-Tray" to quickly enter thoughts and ideas so that no single good idea gets ever lost again. Finally, use the "More" tab to access your personal task and project archives including GTD®-style "Someday" and "Trash" lists.
GTD® and Getting Things Done® are registered trademarks of the David Allen Company. Firetask is not affiliated with or endorsed by the David Allen Company.
What's New in Version 5.0.1
Firetask 5.0.1 fixes a problem with switching between western and Japanese or Chinese keyboards when creating new tasks and editing task details.

Great app but sync needs work
Fantastic GTD app! My favorite yet accept it lacks the auto-syncing that so many other apps have. Remember The Milk has mastered this. Upon changing or adding a task, it auto-syncs in the background. No moving to another page, pressing Sync and waiting 15 seconds for it to complete. RTM also pushes badge updates. Another great feature. When Firetask incorporates theses changes, it will be king among GTD apps.
Omnifocus equivalent
This app is similar to Omnifocus with its context and project organization. Bought it about a year ago, but initially found that it was convoluted at first. But after trying out Omnifocus, I decided to give this app another chance.
Sleek interface with in-tray approach, which I can sort out later on and apply a context and project folder it belongs to.
4-star.
