iPhone - Task Sync

2012, Feb 01    

Most people are aware of this by now, but I thought I’d post a quick follow-up to a previous post of mine …

I have an iPhone and love it, except for the fact that it’s very user friendly. What do I mean? I’m more of a technical user. The fact that the iPhone is so easy to use, makes it hard to do slightly more technical stuff. Some trivial email things that frustrate me:

  • No Custom Email Signatures per Account success Solved!
  • No integrated Exchange Task Sync success Solved!
  • Inability to Send As another email account, on the fly. success Solved!
The second issue has been solved by Apple with iOS 5.  They simply call it Reminders instead of Tasks.  When setting up your Exchange connection to your company or Gmail, simply turn Reminders, as shown:

I know this was a quick write-up, but I felt it was overdue and required for thoroughness.
