There are two features of the web client that I wish were available in the Windows client.
1. The Smart Add field available in the main app interface. I appreciate the Hotkey for opening the Smart Add dialog from anywhere. I just don't think I should have to use it when I have the app open. I think you should add a entry field, next to the current search box, that works exactly like the Smart Add box on the website. It I have a context or project open then It should assume that I want that added to the task unless i specify otherwise. That way all i have to do is click and start typing to capture something new. This works so well on the web app that i've come to rely on it.
2. Project list view. In the web app if I click on "Projects" it shows me a list of all the projects, both active and inactive, with lots of meta data about each. When i click on the same thing in the windows client it just expands the list in the sidebar. There doesn't seem to be a way to see this same Projects view in the windows client.
These are the two things that keep me from using the windows client on my PC as opposed to still opening the web app in chrome.
Thanks for all the hard work on such a great app!

Hello,
We are now making an all-new design for the Windows app. It will be easier to use and look more beautiful. :)
Q1: The Smart Add field available in the main app interface. I appreciate the Hotkey for opening the Smart Add dialog from anywhere. I just don't think I should have to use it when I have the app open. I think you should add a entry field, next to the current search box, that works exactly like the Smart Add box on the website. It I have a context or project open then It should assume that I want that added to the task unless i specify otherwise. That way all i have to do is click and start typing to capture something new. This works so well on the web app that i've come to rely on it.
A: It will be improved in the future new version. In a context/project, there is a Quick-add bar, with which you can add a task to the context/project more quickly.
In addition, as it's known to us all, now the Smart-add box can be called up on any interface by the shortcut combination.
Q2: Project list view. In the web app if I click on "Projects" it shows me a list of all the projects, both active and inactive, with lots of meta data about each. When i click on the same thing in the windows client it just expands the list in the sidebar. There doesn't seem to be a way to see this same Projects view in the windows client.
A: The new version will do as the web version does now, making the list of projects shown on the right.
Shall you need any other help or have additional questions, please do not hesitate to contact us.
Thanks for your feedback and support.
