iOS 5 - Notification Center

fgmoribe says:
I'm running iOS 5 in my iPhone and iPad but Notification Center and RTM does not work as I suppose it would be the best way
Generaly I don't set a due time for my tasks, only a due date, in any time on this date.
Doing that my tasks does not show in the Notification Center, only if I config RTM to send me daily reminder.
But what I would like is, as soon as I change/create my tasks, it would be updated in the Notification Center, showing erverything that I have for today.

Is there any way to do that?

Regards

fgmoribe,
Thanks for your feedback. This isn't currently possible; iOS' Notifications Center only shows push notifications, so it will can show your entire daily reminder as displayed.

Hope this helps!

@Andrewski - but Apple's Reminders app can actually have the notification center show the tasks due for today, even if it has not popped up as a notification yet. Can't we do something like that for RTM? So that as soon as I mark a task as done, it'll just disappear in the notifcation center, otherwise it'll stay there even (especially!) if it's overdue.

Hope to see more Notification Center integration for RTM soon. Thanks.

Hi deuts,
Thanks for your feedback on this! I'll make sure the development team gets this for review.

Me too please. Think it's pretty important for RTM/iPhone users. I for one would cancel my Pro membership and struggle on with the Reminders app (which does show in the Notification Centre) unless RTM better integrates soon.

With all due respect, wxmmoz...iOS 5 has only been out a short time. It seems premature to take RTM to task for not moving quickly enough to integrate itself with the new Notifications feature. I'd like the feature, too, but let's give them some time....I understand that Bob's outfit here is just a tad smaller than Google, Apple, or Microsoft in terms of the resources they have!

I didn't say I wanted it immediately rcamner - I said 'soon', which in my experience of software/web development usually means somewhere between 5 and 20 years!

bump!

as for the reminders app, I actually had to renew my RTM pro account about 2 weeks before ios5 was launched, and so I was very happy to find that the reminders app is simply not an RTM-killer as widely rumored! I agree that we need ios 5 style notifications per task but am happy to wait for the RTM dev team to do a proper job! (as they seem to have done with Siri support... man I want a 4s now)

This is easy, just display it as a calendar and it will show up in Notification Center

Hi roland.stockholm,
You can choose when and how your reminders will be delivered by logging in to the web app and clicking on Settings, then on the Reminders tab. The top portion of this page determines when the reminder notifications will be sent.

If you want to receive a reminder today at 21:00 for a particular task, choose to receive reminders "at the time the task is due" and then set the task's due date to "today at 21:00".

Hope that helps!
