Version 3.9.1
Things 3.9 is our big “Spring Cleaning” release – the culmination of months of work, with broad refactorings, architectural changes, and optimizations.
Most of these major changes are under the hood, so you should experience almost no difference in behavior.
In addition, we’ve made the following minor improvements on the Mac:
- Tweaked date formats throughout the app and app extensions.
- Added Quick Entry with Autofill support for the Opera web browser.
- Made behavior of the Cmd+(Opt+)K and Cmd+(Opt+). shortcuts match the iPad app.
- Improved how Things URLs with the search parameter are handled.
- Fixed a visual glitch with the search field’s clear button while running Things in Light Mode.
- Fixed a bug where the UI might not update properly when moving to-dos to different days in the Upcoming list.
- Fixed a bug where adding a to-do’s first tag via Cmd+Shift+T could break sometimes.
- Fixed some issues with several keyboard shortcuts when using the Russian input source.
- Fixed an AppleScript issue where a list’s to-dos would include list headers in a result.
There are also usability improvements for the accompanying 3.9 release on iPhone and iPad:
- The app is significantly faster to launch, and also when opening a to-do, or tapping + to create a new to-do.
- The layout of collapsed to-dos is improved, particularly for smaller iPhones, so that more of the title is visible.
- Usability of the popover for setting dates has been improved to provide more clarity, especially when also setting reminders.
