Things Cloud Sync + Sync with 2Do

I've been using Cultured Code's Things for some time now. The two things it's missing are cloud sync and delegation, the first of which they've supposedly been working on for a long time, and the second of which they've apparently put on hold. The iPhone app has never been my favorite, but iOS5's "Reminders" is worthless for anyone with more than a handful of tasks, much less a complicated structure of responsibilities that range over various areas and that need to be completed in different contexts (location-based reminders however, are awesome; frankly it's such an intuitive idea that it seems—in keeping with ideas that come out of Cupertino—like we should all be shocked that nobody else thought about it first). Therefore since Things for iOS was the only app I knew of that synced with Things for Mac, I used it. Rather I frequently manually synced with it, but I rarely used it. I wound up making lists in Evernote of things I knew I would need to look at while on the go.

I recently picked up 2Do and kinda like it. I suspect I will grow to love it. And the best part is that it syncs with iCloud! Since Things can sync with iCal "reminder" calendars hosted on iCloud (it can even sync specific tags and areas of responsibility with specific calendars), that means Things for Mac can sync automagically over-the-air with 2Do, freeing me from manually syncing Things for Mac with Things for iOS. Apple and Guided Ways Technologies solved the Things sync problem that Cultured Code couldn't.

2Do can be controlled using Siri on the iPhone 4S, and it can also handle location-based reminders.
