OmniFocus 3, the popular task app for iPhone, iPad and Mac, received a major update on Monday that makes it easier to use for people with mobility limitations. This is because the app now fully supports the voice control feature of iOS and macOS.
For those who don’t know, voice control is not related to Siri. Instead, voice control is an accessibility feature introduced in iOS 13 and macOS Catalina that gives users full control of their device through voice commands. It recognizes all kinds of commands like “scroll down”, “long press” or even “lock screen”.
Of course, developers can take advantage of these features to improve accessibility support in their apps, and that’s exactly what the Omni Group has done with OmniFocus 3.13.
As detailed in the blog post, the app now has dedicated commands for users with voice control enabled. You can select a specific item, change its settings, request a summary of the day’s tasks, and even mark a task as completed using voice commands.
We think it’s important to make OmniFocus available wherever you want to use it, whether you’re using a keyboard and mouse, a touch screen, a clock, a web browser, or just your voice. Or any combination of the above!
The developers have provided full documentation on how to use the app with voice control enabled. But that’s only part of the update, as OmniFocus version 3.13 also brings automation improvements, improved shortcut support, and general bug fixes.
OmniFocus is available on the App Store for macOS and iOS with a 14-day free trial. After that, the app requires a $9.99 per month subscription available as an in-app purchase.
