It’s a fantastic way to view different sections of an outline simultaneously while editing.Īs you can probably tell, Omni has put a real emphasis on keyboard shortcuts, which emphasizes that OmniOutliner is first and foremost an iPad app. Unlike text editors that take you to the spot in a document where your search query occurs, OmniOutliner hides rows that don’t match your filter. Essentials includes all the tools you need for basic outlining, and Pro adds extensive customization options, section navigation, automation, and other features.įiltering displays just those rows that match your query.įiltering is accessible from OmniOutliner’s toolbar or the Command+F keyboard shortcut. That’s because OmniOutliner 3 isn’t one app, it’s two: OmniOutliner Essentials and OmniOutliner Pro.
Perhaps the greatest strength of OmniOutliner 3 for iOS is that it can handle both scenarios. More often than not, all I need is a quick indented list, with simple formatting, and the ability to reorder sections easily. If an outline is more than a few pages long, it’s only because it’s full of detailed notes. Today, my outlining needs are much simpler. Although the word processor I used could handle outlining, it wasn’t optimized for huge outlines the way OmniOutliner is. Those outlines grew as the semester wore on, adding complexity that made them harder to edit. I wish I had OmniOutliner when I was in law school.
Outlines became second nature – something I still use today to organize research, write longer articles, and organize projects. When I was in law school, that’s how I was taught to break down legal issues and structure the enormous amount of information I needed to know to pass exams.
