Outliner V1.0.0 public PRO version

The wait is over. Outliner finally leaves the beta state and the official PRO version is now available at the Google Play Store.
Please consider buying the PRO version to get the additional features or to support future development.

See the version history for everything the PRO version adds to Outliner.

Thanks a lot to all the beta testers who helped to make Outliner as stable as it is and thanks for all suggestions and feature requests. There is a long list of features to be added in future.

I added a privacy statement to the tutorial. It explains in detail what Outliner does and does not with your data and what you can do to keep it private.
In short:
Outliner never sends your data anywhere unless you explicitely tell Outliner to do so (e.g. if you configure a Dropbox sync).
In some cases Outliner writes your data to your SD-card where it may not be secure any more if you loose your phone.

Changes 1.0.0:
  • public PRO version in Google Play Store
  • privacy statement added to tutorial
  • new permission "internet access" for Dropbox sync
  • buttons in action bar of edit screens
  • cosmetic user interface changes
  • outline list: select row with character press on physical keyboard
  • Fix: occasional crashes after adding activities
  • Fix: occasional loss of last correction if activity edit not closed by user
  • PRO: HTML Export
  • PRO: sync Natara Bonsai (USB and Dropbox)
  • PRO: new view: Show Due
  • PRO: uncheck finished activities
  • PRO: delete finished activities
  • PRO: search
  • PRO: backup/restore all Outlines to/from SD-card
  • PRO: launcher shortcuts for Outlines
  • PRO: themes
  • PRO: cut/copy/paste subtree (also between Outlines)
  • PRO: expand/collapse subtree
  • PRO: configure default view for activity list

Tip:
Use a left/right swipe to quickly change the level of an activty.
Use the "move mode" to quickly move activities within an Outline (toggle by double tap or menu).

Outliner V0.9.0 beta

This version adds enhancements for newer Android devices and tablets.

On devices with an Android version 3.0 and above there is now an Action Bar at the top of the screen which provides shortcuts to some actions otherwise found in the menu. You can for instance quickly change the view or toggle move mode. On older devices you reach these actions via the menu button as usually.

When importing/exporting an Outline you can now use a file manager to pick the file (the button with the tree dots next to the filename). Outliner shows a list of installed applications which may provide a file picker. "OI File Manager" or "ES File Explorer" for instance will do the job and will be automatically chosen if installed. You find these applications at the Google Play Store.

Changes 0.9.0:
  • Action Bar for Android 3.x and higher
  • FilePicker for import/export (any installed file manager on your device is used)
  • bigger fonts to configure for higher resolutions
  • respect device date format settings
  • enhance speed for Outlines with long activity notes
  • Fix: list sometimes gets no keyboard focus with hardware keyboard
  • Fix: rotations when using device upside down on newer tablets
  • further preparation for upcoming professional version of Outliner (Themes, Launcher Shortcuts)

Tip:
Use a left/right swipe to quickly change the level of an activty.
Use the "move mode" to quickly move activities within an Outline (toggle by double tap or menu).
