Configure OmniFocus

We’ll help you structure OmniFocus so that it’s an accurate reflection of your life and work.

Where to Start

Your OmniFocus structure must be a reflection of your life and work. This includes creating folders representing different areas of your life, adding single action lists to house one-off actions in these areas, and creating parallel and sequential projects to track outcomes you’re working towards.

The Start Smart with OmniFocus 4 course is a good place to start. In addition to learning the basics of OmniFocus, you’ll be guided through setting up OmniFocus. This course is for everyone, whether you’re new to OmniFocus or have been using it for years.

The next step is to complete OmniFocus 4: Beyond the Basics. This course picks up where Start Smart with OmniFocus leaves off and helps you further configure OmniFocus. You’ll learn to create custom perspectives that can be very helpful for using, reviewing and maintaining OmniFocus.
