Great but Greatly Flawed

This app is fantastic in the sense that it continues to remind you of a to-do until you mark it complete, which is a feature that you would think would be abundant in to-do apps but isn’t. Here is where this app falls greatly short: Firstly, its not worth its price due to a lack of features; secondly, (and the most important reason) the app does not sync seamlessly with its iPad/iPhone sister app (I’ll explain). If you mark a to-do as complete on your Mac (regardless of whether you use iCloud or Dropbox to sync your tasks), the act of completion is NOT pushed to your other device(s) unless Due is open and running on that device. So, even if Due is running in background mode on your other device(s) you will continue to get notifications for a task that has already been marked as complete on your Mac. I sent an email to the developer of the app and he stated, “Due on iOS is not able to do that at the moment if it’s not running.” This shortcoming greatly reduces productivity on what would otherwise be a 4.5- or even a 5-star app.
