January 2023 App Updates

Happy New Year! 🎉 🎆

At long last we’ve brought Reminders to Nirvana’s mobile apps. Set a date/time to be reminded of a pending to-do, and you’ll receive a push-notification when that moment arrives.

Yes yes, long time users know we’ve resisted implementing this for a long time as notifications are one of the biggest disrupters to flow and productivity. That said, having finally added the feature, we must admit they have their place, when used judiciously, to be gently nudged at a specific moment to pay attention to your, ahem, ⭐️ Focus list.

We’ve also tweaked the user interface in a number of places to make Nirvana easier to use. You’ll find subtle adjustments throughout the app such as:

• Task notes are now placed immediately below the task’s name when viewing / editing a task’s details, with optional fields such as tags, effort, due dates etc only appearing as needed.
• Date selection now uses a more modern and intuitive calendar popup.
• Completed to-dos can now be easily collected to the Logbook via the ••• menu in the top navigation bar.

We hope you find these changes helpful. And we look forward to rolling out more improvements throughout the year. 😌
