#Nozbe for windows full#

This was a big shift in thinking and it took us a few years to really pull it off - we were gradually shipping new iOS and Android apps… and finally in 2013 with Nozbe 1.5 we had a full suite of apps for all the platforms. We needed to bring Nozbe iOS apps in-house, build Android app and think about Mac and Windows apps, too. We needed to shift gears from Nozbe as a “web app” to Nozbe as a “cloud sync service” with local clients for all the platforms. I realized we needed to go this route, too.

I couldn’t believe that a competitor in the task-management space could launch so quickly with such a fanfare.įrankly, it pissed me off… and then it motivated me to re-think the whole future. They launched on the web, iOS, Android and also Mac and Windows. In 2011 Wunderlist launched using a technology called AppCelerator - which helped their small team of 6 people build apps for all the platforms in a very short time. I thought I’d never be able to do this with my small team… and besides, the native apps were passé anyway, right? Especially when I saw how Evernote was struggling to make this work back in 20 - having different teams responsible for different platforms.

Here goes:įrom Evernote… to Wunderlist - how a cloud-based app became viable and could go mainstream…Īs I explained in my first Michael’s team productivity vlog Nozbe was born as a web-app first… and initially the iPhone, iPad or Android apps were an afterthought. At Nozbe we’ll be offering a way to migrate from Wunderlist to Nozbe or Nozbe Teams soon, but this post is not about that - it’s about how this app, when launched in 2011, gave me a strong kick in the butt to make Nozbe much better. One of Nozbe’s main competitors - Wunderlist - is going away in a few months - Microsoft is shutting it down after they acquired it years ago.
