Amazing iPad User Interface
Brand New Calendar View - View your project the way you view your schedule. See milestones, ToDos and everything all on a beautiful calendar and get a better idea of your project's progress.
Multi-Account Support - If you're like us, you use a lot of Basecamp accounts. Use them all with Outpost 2.
Message Support - Write new messages, read others and comment all from within the app. You can even view/add attachments directly from the app!
ToDo Support - Full ToDo support has been added with the ability to view/edit/delete lists, mark ToDos as done/undone, add/edit/delete ToDos and even assign them to specific people.
Time Support - Record and view time entries directly from the app.
Milestone Support - View, mark completed or create new ones.
Contacts - View your contacts and even integrate them with your Address Book contacts.
Partial Offline Support - Once you download Messages, To-Dos and Milestones from your project, Outpost saves them so you don't need to connect again to re-download them. This helps out big time when you need to reference a message that you saw early while on the train.
** Note: Outpost 2 does NOT support Writeboards at this time. 37signals (the makers of Basecamp) does not offer a Writeboard API and until they do, we won't be able to offer this feature in a reliable way.

Outpost 2's History
-----------------------
Outpost 2 is the culmination of over a year's worth of work since Groundwork 1.0 was introduced to the AppStore in late 2008. Groundwork and Outpost were the first two Basecamp® applications to be released to the AppStore and they did well to compete against each other. However, we always admired Outpost's beautiful UI and fantastic UX. After feeling like we could do better, we went back to the drawing board and after a few months, Groundwork 2.0 was born. A completely re-designed and re-developed version. We were proud and users were happy. It was great, but we wanted more and so did our users. We wanted Groundwork 3 to be huge. The iPad was released and it was our chance to make a big splash...but how? Well, it just so happens that David Kaneda of Morfunk (the developer behind Outpost 1.0) worked across the street from us in Palo Alto. We met up with him and after a few coffee dates we decided that Groundwork 3.0 should be reborn as Outpost 2.0.

• Filter button disappearing when to-dos are empty.

Customer Reviews
Please fix the bug with due date settings
After some update it became impossible to set due date later than tomorrow. Please fix, this is really critical for everyday use.
A lot of potential - no follow through
This app has the potential to be amazing. However, with no access to Writeboards and no ability to set due dates beyond "Tomorrow", it's next all but useless.
If they were to fix the due date issue it would be a huge leap but judging from the support forum they've been neglecting the issue since August of 2011.
Can't set todo due date later than next day.
Has a lot of features, and nice interface, but the solution is buggy.
