[appigo-todo] My features wish-list (sub-tasks in lists view, task status and integrated calendar)

Hi Appigo,

First, kudos to all of your more recent updates (sub-tasks,
checklists, alerts, landscape mode, etc) that has made this app even
more powerful.

As a person, who has tried out practically all GTD systems on the
Iphone, here are a few suggestions to make this even better and help
compete with some of the newer products out there:

1. As many have requested before, I'd rather see a sub-task name than
a project name in the list view. Best to have this as a user option to
switch. Also, please sort out the due-date issues as mentioned by
other users before (due date of project vs sub-task due date).

2. Again as many have requested before, task status. I know this can
be achieved by tags, but this should be more of a context-like field
(in that a task can only have one status). I'd rather not use contexts
for this as my current contexts (@home, etc) can be used in
conjunction with a new context-like task status field.
Also, could we have option to colour-code the text in which the tasks
are written based on their status?

3. Integrated calendar that syncs with Google calendar: I know some
have said that this isn't true GTD as per DA. However, IMO, it is the
best and most effective way to plan / work through a day's tasks.
Currently, I use CalenGoo separately from ToDo. In ToDo, I use due
dates / times for most tasks (specifically, for those that I need to
get done at appropriate dates & times) and priorities for other tasks.
I also have tags like 'interesting home projects' and 'bedtime
reading' that help for the ones for which due dates / times are not
appropriate. However, this constant switching between two apps to find
out what I have to do (& when I can expect to have free time) can be
done away with.
The advantage of synching with Google calendar is follows: I generally
input tasks / events into my Ipod Touch at home where I have wifi.
These are almost simultaneously synched with the basic calendar in the
Touch. Now, even if I go out of wifi range, I can still get the
alerts!
And this should be different from the PI app: one should have option
to synch both tasks and calendar events with Google Calendar, though
task synching could be one-way (this shouldn't stop task synching with
Toodledo). This is to ensure we get alerts for tasks as well using
Ipod Touch even outside the wifi reception area.
An advantage for Appigo to do this: you eat into the market share of
PI and 2Do (both of them are very popular nowadays, but frankly this
integrated calendar / todo list is their only strong feature vs ToDo.
Put in an integrated calendar and there is no reason why anyone would
want to buy those two apps.
