Any.Do releases standalone app for Mac

If you’ve been looking for a standalone app for Any.Do for OS X, then your wait is over. The app now has a desktop version. It is, however, rather similar to Any.Do’s web app, the difference is you get offline task management, which is important to some. It will also sync with Any.Do apps you use on other platforms. You can still create task lists, share the lists with others, and attach notes. Unfortunately, it doesn’t take advantage of OS X Yosemite features like preview widgets in the notification bar. It would’ve been nice if they took full advantage of the OS.

We wouldn’t know though if it has the same image quality as the Sony modules, and if the rumour is true. We just have to wait a bit until Mobile World Congress to find out the truth.
