And I still can't find the way to retract the keyboard any other way than changing orientation.

The back button on the bar should do it.

Does the Fire permit loading of externally sourced APKs?

I don't know. I need to find a Fire forum, I think.

Hmm. Astrid will let you look at tasks for "Today" but there isn't a way to look at tasks for a specific date in the future? Or, like, "Tomorrow"?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Someone's not complying to development standards, then, because on that app (which I've currently blanked on--I've been banging at the phone all morning) that took me back a screen. On some apps (like Google Voice) it does what you say, but on that one I kept losing what I'd typed.

Huh. Apparently not. I guess sorting by date is supposed to be enough? Searching would be nice.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Yeah, sorting by date gets me kinda there, but not for things like "check to see which reports are coming up at the end of the next quarter." If I could just say, "April 15th" it would all be there for me.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

I ask because I was thinking about using that to set up my Tasker stuff. Like it would pop up on Sunday afternoon with my list for the Monday location so I could make sure I had everything in order before I left, and then again when I got to the coordinates.

How did you set up your client tie-in task lists?

No doubt. I don't use a lot of third party apps but I can easily imagine it.

I just filter with lists, and that keeps them shorter. I have Tasker fire off lists by location right now. And you can set widgets to display the subsets too.
