Remember the Milk, the popular iPhone to-do list will now be getting a free version. I had been using the paid subscription version on my iPhone that I got for free from freebiejeebies for some time but the new free version may make me reconsider.
Whenever an developer creates a free version of an app, it tends to be starved of features and missing something vital from it’s paid version. Remember the Milk’s free option limits you to only being able to sync once every 24 hours, this would cause problems to anyone using multiple platforms to keep themselves organised. The other limitation to the free version is that the app will not use push notifications, making the application far less useful to those people who use an organising to remind them when something is about to happen, not just what is going to happen that day.
If anything, this news has made me reconsider my use of Remember the Milk, there are probably free alternative out there now that have all these features for free.
