Exciting day, everyone! Today, we’re releasing Pagico for Desktop v6.2. As usual, we’re packing a lot of feature improvements in this point update. We’re very excited to bring you this update, and we think you’re going to love it. Here’s a brief run-down of what’s new:
New Features
Reminders!
You can set up and customize reminders in Pagico for Desktop now! Just like the iOS app, you can easily set up multiple reminders to starting dates, due dates, and appointment dates (notes with dates). It not only syncs with Pagico on your iOS devices, it will also sync with iCal on your computer to remind you at the designated times. Best of all, since we’re taking advantage of the iCal schedule component which is part of the OS X, you can get reminded with and without Pagico running.
Date Helper
Starting with this version, a small panel will pop up when you’re typing dates. This shows you the processed, absolute dates based on your input. So that you can confidently type up things like “tomorrow 7:20pm” (or “+10 day”) and see exactly what you’re getting. This little panel will also allow you to easily set up alarms as well.
Hiding individual list items
One of the much requested features is the ability to hide completed tasks from a list. And we’ve done just that! From now on, you can easily hide (archive) individual list items in a list with just a single click. But please read on, as the next one is the killer feature…
Container Clean-Up
How many completed items do you have in your Inbox? Or in your long-term projects? I bet there are many. And hiding (or deleting) every one of them isn’t fun at all. From this version, a little utility in the toolbar called “Auto Clean-Up” can help you with this! Simply choose the cut-off date, and select the desired action (hide or delete), and you’re all set! This feature will go through everything in the current container (Inbox, a project or contact) and perform the designated action. It even goes into lists and hide (or delete, based on your choice) individual list items. This, is going to save you a lot of time.
