How Cool Changes – Friday Notes 115
by
On the first day of school, my oldest child had a book report ready to go for her teacher. She used her iPad and typed it up. It has a cover page with a rating and it’s in a nice folder she spent her own money on. My first thought when she was showing it…
Writer’s Writing App Round Up
by
Very much been enjoying William’s YouTube channel. This video highlighted TextSoap and while I write mainly on iPadOS, I could see using this for some of my content.
Jeff Perry going Analogue with Bullet Journal
by
[From Jeff](https://jeffperry.blog/2020/09/08/going-offline-has.html): > After starting out using this notebook I noticed the “intentional friction” with this system and it was something I hadn’t had in my other task managers. I would have hundreds of tasks in my digital task managers over time, clogging up the system and making it nearly impossible to decide what is…
Chris Lawley’s iPad Workflow
by
Yup I follow his channel. **Part 1: Morning Routine** In part I was mostly interested to see Things and Fantastical in split view. It’s pertinent to the Time Blocking course I’m working on. [If you want to get notified about that subscribe](https://curtismchale.ca/subscribe) **Part 2: File Management, Writing Code, Git…** Most interested here in how he…
Procase iPad Pro 2018 2020 keyboard case
by
We’ll start with a disclaimer, ProCase got me a 99% coupon for this case. I paid something for it, but barely anything. They hoped I write something about it or add it to a video, but didn’t make that a requirement, and they haven’t seen this until you’re seeing it. The other truth is that…

William Gallagher – Writer’s Essential Tools: OmniFocus
by
[William gives us a decent overview of how OmniFocus can help writers get their projects under control](https://youtu.be/-vlMCIvAlSU). I wish he showed his Shortcuts stuff in more detail, but he didn’t. Overall, I’ve been enjoying William’s videos.

Task and Project Templates in TickTick
by
One of the crucial features in a task manager is the ability to build out the same types of projects easily. I don’t want to try and remember all the steps in my writing and video projects. I want a system that let’s me run a Shortcut, or provides some way to have project templates.…
iPad Magic Keyboard – Byte Review
by
I had all the same feelings about the Magic Keyboard when it came out. It’s expensive and…really will it be that awesome? Seems we both agree, it is that awesome. We’re also on the same page when it comes to feeling that the Magic Keyboard prompts you to use your iPad like a laptop while…
