One of the most popular task management web services is extending its mobile offering. After conquering Windows Mobile, BlackBerry and the iPhone – the cow is coming to an Android smartphone near you. Of course — just like that was the case with the iPhone version — a Pro account is required to manage your tasks on the go. If you don’t have it [Pro account], you can try out the app for 15 days for free and later decide whether its worth upgrading.
Anyway, RTM for Anfroid brings following features (aside from offering standard task management):
- Background syncing – something that doesn’t work on the iPhone!
- Notifications – upcoming tasks will popup in the notification bar
- Location-awareness – see tasks located nearby (just like on the iPhone version)
- Homescreen widget – which, in some cases, will remove the need to open the app. Very handy!
- Support for both portrait and landscape screen orientation.
In a nutshell, Remember The Milk folks have once again proved they know how to keep their customers happy, accross the mobile platforms. Hopefully, a Symbian S60 client is also in works… In the meantime, if you’re an Android handset owner who at the same time loves RTM, look for it in the Android Market.

Dusan has been using smartphones since their introduction and is now following the latest trends in the industry. The "convergence" is what he's most excited about, and writing about it is the next logical thing to do. He thinks that using a smartphone is what everyone who cares about their time should do. In addition to his interests in mobile phones, Dusan also loves to experiment with the latest web and mobile 2.0 services. The idea of accessing and managing your information from any device no matter where you are simply amazes him. Whether it's an online to-do list, note taking service or a video sharing social network, he's there to try it out. He admits though, he's still searching for the ultimate web-based organizational tool, which "sings" perfectly with the mobile PIM application. Dusan used to run SymbianWatch.com which later became part of IntoMobile. He lives in Serbia, South-East Europe, from where he edits the site on a daily basis.
