One of the things I enjoy about Things is the structure.

I find that it makes sense, even though it is kind of rigid.

You have Todos, Checklists, Tags, Projects, Areas and Headings

• All Areas are at the root level
• Projects are either at the root level or inside an Area
• Todos are either in the Inbox (or hidden from it if is assigned a Start Date/Defer Date), in an Area or a Project
• Headings area are a way to split projects into different sections
• Tasks can have a checklist, which is like sub-tasks, but only one level
• Areas, Projects, and Todos can have tags

Their “Date” or Start Dates or Defer Dates are a bit weird though. You can assign it to Projects and Tasks, but they are not inherited. Something that gives you a bit control of your views.

There are two things I wish was different about them

• That you could assign things to “Night” on a given date, and not just the current one.
• That they didn’t just stay at “Today” forever when you reach their date.
• But I love that they have a built in state for “Someday”

I also wish there was a way to have different moves of viewing the “side bar” or “Home Screen” (on iPhone). The one that lists all your projects etc.

• Let me hide Areas where everything is in the future
• Toggle between the current way it is and the different “Date” lists: Today, Tomorrow, Someday, Anytime.
