I find that Wunderlist provides a good example of the sort of functionality
that is being requested. Everyone involved has to have the app installed
on a phone (or a PC version is available), and it allows you to share lists
and delegate tasks to others in the group. Other people can only see the
lists/tasks that you have allowed them to see.
 
But it really needs a decision to move away from a single-user concept to
shared task lists.

I agree with you Martin. I'm using Wunderlist to share and delegate tasks
and find it easy and effective. Importantly, the people I use it with are
either already using it, or find it simple to understand.
 
It would be a very big decision for MLO to move from single-user to
collaborative. A better course to take may involve developing integration
through apps like ITTT and Zapier, or improving the export options e.g.
opml.

In my opinion you're barking up the wrong tree in expecting MLO to
accommodate delegation. MLO is simply a database optimized for personal
task management. Project management beyond the individual level requires a
system incorporating a variety of tools. Maybe you should be using MS
Project, or developing your own database. MLO may be a useful cog in the
machine but don't expect it to be what it's not.

My interest is not nearly as elaborate as others are assuming. I'm not
looking for project management capability or any type of cross-user
interactivity. I'm really just looking for something as simple as a field
where I could enter the person (or persons) who are responsible for doing
something. Yes, I am aware of the workarounds that are listed here. Using a
context or including the name in the header is reasonable....but it's not
as elegant as having a dedicated field to assign ownership. With such a
field, I could more easily create reports, sort by owner, assign tasks,
etc. When I'm working on a project, I could see who all is doing things.
When I sit down with a person, I could easily see all the things that
person is responsible for doing.
 
It's really a simple need and pretty core to any task manager. I've used
MLO for a very long time. This has just been a notable gap in my mind. With
all the latest efforts, I was hoping that gap would be closed. Alas.

Hi,
 
I use MLO Pro for Windows and MLO Pro for Android. In MLO for Win I've
created a Custom View which shows Starred Actions by Projects. It's the one
view I use the most, and it shows me only the starred actions sorted by
folders/projects.
Unfortunately, when I synced MLO for Win with MLO for Android via wifi, the
custom view didn't get synced. I didn't find a way to create this custom
view in MLO for Android, either(maybe there is one, but I didn't find it).
If somebody knows how I can do this, please let me know. It will be highly
appreciated.
Thank you.
Best Regards,
 
Emil

Hi,
I have MLO for Windows and also the MLO for Android on my phone.
On the Windows app, I've created a custom view called Starred Actions by
Projects. I use to star the actions I want to do first in each project, and
then jump to this view and I see only the starred actions, sorted by
folders/projects. I do this because I have lots of folders/projects, and to
see all of the actions in them is just overwhelming.
My problem is that even if I synchronize via wifi the MLO for Win with the
MLO for Android, on my phone the Starred Actions by Project view doesn't
appear. That wouldn't be a problem if I could create it on the Android app,
but I didn't find a way to do that in the Android app.
If someone knows how to achive what I need, please let me know. It will be
highly appreciated.
Thank you.
Best Regards,
Emil
