Is OmniFocus Down?
Written By The Aftertone Team
Check https://www.omnigroup.com for live status. If OmniFocus is not listed as having an active incident, the issue may be on your end -- try restarting the app or checking your internet connection.
What to do right now
1. Open Google Calendar directly. Your events sync there regardless of whether OmniFocus is working.
2. Write your three priorities for the day. Open Notes or grab a piece of paper. Three things that have to happen today. OmniFocus going down does not change what matters.
3. Check OmniFocus's status. OmniFocus syncs via Omni Sync Server or your own WebDAV server. Check omnigroup.com for server status. The app works offline -- your tasks on this device are still there.
4. Start on your first priority. The real cost of a planning tool outage is not the 20 minutes it is down -- it is the hour you lose waiting for it instead of working.
