Alarms is a Mac app developed by Media Atelier we previously reviewed here. For those who missed the review:
Alarms is a fast and lightweight reminder app for Mac that lives in your menubar. It’s not a GTD application, yet it’s a perfect companion for softwares like Things or OmniFocus. I basically use Alarms to save little things I need to do later that aren’t worth creating a new entry in OmniFocus.
Getting stuff in Alarms is simple and takes seconds. Once you install the app a new icon is added to your menubar. Click on it, or drag an item over it, and a white horizontal panel slides down (great animation) letting you choose in which part of your working day should the new entry go.
A quick reminder that lives in your menubar and lets you enter items with a simple and quick drag & drop. Elegant and polished UI, great animations.
The latest 1.1 update brings a lot of bug fixes and improvements under the hood, together with a couple of new interesting features. For instance, you can now reschedule the whole day by dragging the whole timeline: in this way, you’ll be able to shift multiple items at once. The developers also introduced the possibility the hold down the Shift key to see all 24 hours at once. The opening animations are once again subtle but a pleasure to see.
Alarms 1.1 is available at $15 here.
