Chelmsford, Massachusetts - LifeFocus Apps today is proud to announce LifeFocus 1.2, an update to their popular tasks and goals utility for iPhone and iPod touch. Designed specifically to take advantage of the iPhone's unique capabilities, LifeFocus gets the information users need quickly so they can focus on getting things done, all without having to spend time managing a todo list.

 

Whether users desire a basic task list or prescribe to the Getting Things Done methodology, LifeFocus can be personalized to meet any need. From the unique Filter & Focus Bars to the integration with the built-in Address Book and Camera, users will have ready access to all their critical information. Among LifeFocus' most unique features are its Filter & Focus Bars - eliminating needless navigating up and down lists. It offers one touch access to the Inbox, Focus List, Next Actions, Starred Items, Folders and Contexts.

 

And LifeFocus keeps track of goals too. With its Goal Tracking feature, users can easily keep their efforts moving toward solid goals to get things accomplished. Users can effortlessly define their goals and the tasks needed to achieve them, and have everything seamlessly integrated into a general task list. As well, Goals can be set to be shown only on the first day of the week, uniquely serving as reminders to review progress.

 

Feature Highlights:

* Filter and Focus Bars

* Goal Tracking

* Address Book Integration

* Group tasks by work week

* Basic and Advanced views

* Color coded status and folders

* Drag and drop reorder folders and contexts

"I have been using mobile devices to stay organized for the past decade including Windows Mobile, Blackberry and now iPhone," said Zachary Untracht, founder of LifeFocus Apps. "While all of them had some mechanism to track things to do, none of them helped me stay focused on the things most important to me. When Apple introduced the iPhone OS SDK I saw an opportunity to fill the void. I designed LifeFocus to allow me to quickly record the things I want to accomplish along side all my every day tasks. Now those things that drive the most value for me don't get lost in the hustle and bustle of every day life."

 

A picture is worth a thousand words and can serve as a strong reminder of why a goal is important. LifeFocus offers full integration with the device's built in camera and/or photo library, and serves to provide extra inspiration to drive toward goals. Additionally, LifeFocus sports full Address Book integration. At any time, users can attach a contact to a task and have all their contact information available to use: touch a number to call, or quickly send an email. Tasks can be synced with Toodledo and users can create a new account from right within LifeFocus.

 

System Requirements:

* iPhone, 3G/3GS or iPod touch 3.0 or later
