Exciting day, everyone! Today, we’re releasing Pagico for Desktop v6.2. As usual, we’re packing a lot of feature improvements in this point update. We’re very excited to bring you this update, and we think you’re going to love it. Here’s a brief run-down of what’s new:

Reminders!
You can set up and customize reminders in Pagico for Desktop now! Just like the iOS app, you can easily set up multiple reminders to starting dates, due dates, and appointment dates (notes with dates). It not only syncs with Pagico on your iOS devices, it will also sync with iCal on your computer to remind you at the designated times. Best of all, since we’re taking advantage of the iCal schedule component which is part of the OS X, you can get reminded with and without Pagico running.
Date Helper
Starting with this version, a small panel will pop up when you’re typing dates. This shows you the processed, absolute dates based on your input. So that you can confidently type up things like “tomorrow 7:20pm” (or “+10 day”) and see exactly what you’re getting. This little panel will also allow you to easily set up alarms as well.
Hiding individual list items

One of the much requested features is the ability to hide completed tasks from a list. And we’ve done just that! From now on, you can easily hide (archive) individual list items in a list with just a single click. But please read on, as the next one is the killer feature…
Container Clean-Up
How many completed items do you have in your Inbox? Or in your long-term projects? I bet there are many. And hiding (or deleting) every one of them isn’t fun at all. From this version, a little utility in the toolbar called “Auto Clean-Up” can help you with this! Simply choose the cut-off date, and select the desired action (hide or delete), and you’re all set! This feature will go through everything in the current container (Inbox, a project or contact) and perform the designated action. It even goes into lists and hide (or delete, based on your choice) individual list items. This, is going to save you a lot of time.

In the new v6.2 (r1455), we also updated the look of the app, making it a little more modern and refreshing.

Getting the update is very simple! Just download and install. If you’re upgrading from v6.x, you don’t even need to enter your license code.
Hope you’ll enjoy!

Starting with Pagico 6, you can use the Smart Collections feature to collect your data (notes, tasks and projects) based on keywords (also known as context tags in GTD). If used properly, this feature can be incredibly useful. Here’s how we do it:
In Pagico, literally everything can be tagged. Just use the @tag syntax in places such as notes, task titles and descriptions, etc. It is recommended to tag tasks based on location (e.g.: @office) or type (e.g.: @phone-call). For example, you can create a new task like this:
Fax the documents @office
Just to reiterate, you can write tags using the @tag syntax literally anywhere in Pagico. And it’s really up to you as far as how to tag items. For instance, the screenshot above shows how we use tag @bug to mark software glitches. Once you have things properly tagged, proceed to step 2 to collect and track those tagged items.
Simply click on the “+” button at the lower left corner, and choose the “New Collection” option. In the popup panel, give the collection a title, select the “Smart Collection” option, and write down the keyword (e.g. @office, with the @ symbol) that you want to track. It’s recommended that you title the collection the same as the tag you’re using (for instance, title it as @office as well).

If needed, you can actually use multiple tags to mark a single item. For example, here’s a sample task that involves sending legal documents:
Fax the document @office @legal
And since legal documents are a big deal, you might want to set up a smart collection to keep track of all the items tagged with both the @office and @legal keywords. In this case, simply create a (or edit an existing) smart collection, and put in multiple tags in the Keywords field like this:
@office, @legal
When using multiple keywords, be sure to include the @ symbols, and use comma (,) to separate keywords. This gives you finer control over how items are collected based on keywords. This way, you can easily set up a smart collection for things tagged as @office + @legal, and another for things tagged as @office + @phone-call, etc.
A simple yet powerful feature, isn’t it? Also: how are you using tags and the smart collection feature in Pagico? If you have something cool, be sure to show us!

Alfred is an amazing productivity tool. Just in case you didn’t know — Alfred allows you to quickly launch any application (or open any document) by typing just a few keywords. It’s on all our machines and we can’t imagine living without it. Now, the latest Alfred 2 comes with a brand new feature called Workflows, which are extensions that can be developed to perform a wide range of tasks. We loved this new capability so much, that we came up with our own extension for Pagico. Here’s how it’ll look like: Read More
