Use Captio iOS App for Crazy-Fast New Tasks

(closed account) says:
I've started using Captio on my iPhone to add new tasks (which works much, much faster than using the RTM app). Ideally, the RTM app would be optimized for faster task creation, but until then, this is a wonderful solution.

The app has one purpose — sending yourself an email.

I've configured it to send to my RTM email address. If you always add specific Quick Add tags to your new tasks, you can configure Captio to always add those to your outgoing mails. (In my case, I've added ^today)

It works. It's fast. And I love it.

Awesome! Any tips on the Quick Add tags? Captio adds these at the beginning of the email subject, and this seems to be causing RTM to make these part of the task name instead of parsing them as tags.

Very helpful. The RTM app on my iPhone takes 45-90 seconds to sync up, even on wi-fi, so GTD-style quick capture has been clumsy at best. This bridges the gap - thanks for sharing.
