I can only put it this way... The Focus List is next to useless. It merely "filters out" items by due date or priority-- or both of these at the same time. What is missing is a way to "flag" tasks to appear in the Focus List.
If a person has a long task list and needs to focus on the tasks at hand, one needs to know which items are due and due soon (which the current Focus List can do) AND needs to be able to narrow down which tasks will be worked on for the day (such as flagging the tasks) .. thus a Focus List. Currently, the Focus List can be... ... filtered by Priority also but that eliminates items appearing by due date. (That is totally useless! ) ... filtered by Priority AND Due Date (That would eliminate a lot of tasks if you didn't go through each one and change two settings-- the prioirty and the due date-- on every task you wanted to Focus on that day!) ... filtered by Due Date (which means if you have a task you want to appear in the Focus list you need to go through each task you wish to focus on, and change the due date to some current date-- whether or not the task is due on that date or not!) Yes, this is something that can be worked around but it really could be much better and much simpler. I think the best scenario for a Focus List would not filter items out, but rather display items that meet a certain criteria. For simplicity it would display items Due Today and/or in the next couple of days AND would display items Flagged to be in the Focus List. It should also be easy to flag the items, not opening them up and going through several selections i.e. tags, dates and priorities. Thanks! ps I enjoy the app and use it daily. Syncing w/ Toodledo has been great and the Note Book app works well right along with ToDo. I really like the Time Stamp and Date Stamp feature on the Notebook also...
