EgretList for IPhone

Although productivity applications and to-do list manager seem to be the new trend, EgretList from MindsMomentum seems to put their own spin on the typical world of to-DOS, basing its backbone platform Evernote.

One of the first things that catch your attention at EgretList is over-the-top design $ 3 to the application. It is very beautiful and, most of the time, functional. However, some design choices can actually impede the speed at which a user can understand EgretList or its many features.

But EgretList has some interesting features, especially his relationship with the service of storage of information to Evernote. It is a rarity to have an iPhone app that lets you synchronize task items with a service to take notes, but why Synchronize with Evernote, EgretList can be easily updated from any Internet-connected device, not just a device iOS. Create new to-do items as completely new notes which can be text, photos and videos added to them, which you can then access by a client to Evernote or EgretList.

That said, there are too many other unique features of EgretList, and the distinction between elements and activities is difficult to make lists.

If you're an avid user of Evernote, or simply need access to the list of commitments from a variety of platforms, EgretList is a fantastic solution. However, the application is not as feature rich as some users would probably and design choices can annoy others. However, EgretList is a useful purchase for existing users of Evernote, or for someone who needs to store and access various means of communication with every thing to do.
