Remember The Milk iPhone app gets another update

Just when we posted that Remember The Milk has updated its iPhone app, the company has issued another small update. Here’s the rundown of changes in this version:

  • RTM badge/icon now updates with the number of tasks due today, or total number of incomplete tasks. Until this update, it could only count tasks that are added on the iPhone, not calculating those you (or someone from your team) added from the web. No more – the badge is now always current and it automatically changes with push notifications.
  • A total of 19 languages is now supported by the app. Czech and Greek are added, while Danish, Finnish, Russian and Spanish support is improved.
  • Finally, RTM has added support for multiple sounds to alert you on the upcoming task. Among the sounds you can choose is “moo,” which is kinda neat, especially when you consider RTM’s logo.

And that’s about it. If you’re using RTM for managing your task list, you’ve been probably already asked to upgrade. On the other hand, this may be the perfect time to try the service out. It’s certainly my favorite to-do list. ;)
