OmniFocus 4.7 introduces three powerful enhancements: a new “Planned” date type, the ability to create mutually exclusive tags, and improved repeat functionality (including new support for setting a repeat to end after a specific date or set number of repetitions). These features require migrating your database format, using our updated migration flow.

This release also includes a range of improvements which do not require a database migration: new Forecast functionality, Time Sensitive Notification support, improved shortcut actions, and more!

• Database Migration — Some features in this release require a new database format. The updated database migration assistant will prompt to migrate your database after all syncing copies of OmniFocus have updated to 4.7 (database migration can also be initiated manually via the Migrate Database option, available in the menu bar on macOS and in Settings on iOS, iPadOS, and visionOS).
• Planned Dates — Items can now be assigned a Planned Date, in addition to a Defer and a Due Date. A Planned Date is the date an action, action group, or project is scheduled for work. (Planned dates require database migration.)
• Mutually Exclusive Tags — Mutually exclusive behavior can now be enabled for tag groups. When enabled, only one tag from a tag group can be assigned to an item at a time; when an additional tag from this group is assigned, the previously assigned tag is removed. Mutually exclusive tags can be useful in a variety of workflows, including priority and energy level assignment. (Mutually exclusive tags require database migration.)
• Improved Repeats — A range of new repeat behaviors can now be configured in the updated Repeat Inspector. (New repeat behaviors require database migration.)
Repeat Limits — Repeats can now be set to end after a date or set number of repetitions.
Automatic Catch Up — Repeating items now skip forward to next future date when “Catch up automatically” is enabled.
Repeat Schedules — Improved scheduling flexibility for items that repeat on a regular schedule.
Inspector — New interface for editing repeats. When not editing, repeat behavior is now summarized in Inspector.
• Forecast — Forecast has been updated to better summarize relevant items and improve date assignment.
Summary Dots — New summary dots in Forecast date header and calendar sidebar communicate how many items are due, due soon, or have been assigned a due date on a given day. Summary dots can be hidden if desired in the Notifications Settings.
Counts — Summary counts in Forecast now count all displayed items (previously, counts only included due items). Count behavior can be customized in the Notifications Settings.
Date Assignment — New “In Forecast: Add or drag to assign” Organization setting determines whether a Defer, Planned, or Due Date is assigned when adding new actions and projects, or dragging existing actions and projects to a date tile.
• Time Sensitive Notifications — OmniFocus notifications now default to Time Sensitive alert behavior.
• Shortcuts — New “Find Perspective” shortcut action.
• Localizations — Additional content has been translated throughout the app.
• Terminology — Standardized wording and capitalization for consistency across platforms (most changes pertain to dates, notifications, and settings).
• Help — Help menu item now opens in app documentation (rather than re-directing to the online manual).
• Help — Help content has been substantially updated, including consolidation of OmniFocus for the Web documentation into the OmniFocus 4 Reference Manual.
• Forecast — Date tiles in the Forecast sidebar no longer use colored backgrounds and text to indicate due and overdue items (since this state is now communicated with the summary dots).
• Notifications — Notifications are no longer applied to future instances of repeating actions and projects.

See app for full Release Notes, including platform-specific changes.
