Hi,
I'm a long time GTD'er but new to this forum. I currently manage my GTD process separately for work and personal life. At work, we are O365 so I use a combination of Outlook, ToDo and One Note, and it does almost everything I want it to.
Personal use is where I'm struggling to find the right mix of software. I have an iPhone device, but don't live entirely in the Apple ecosystem. My email and calendar system is Google and I use Windows laptop or PCs, not a Mac. I interact with the iPhone most because it's always around, and I do find the Reminders app to be good. I can easily organize things and use shortcuts for inbox capture or voice capture via Siri to get thoughts into the inbox easily.
The 2 biggest challenges I have are 1) getting emails (GMail) into Reminders in an efficient way, and 2) accessing my Reminders lists on a Windows device, I have to log into iCloud via browser. It's possible, but not as easy as I would like (or as easy as Office 365 apps that do work on iPhone).
I am teaching GTD to my college age son and would like to find a good mix of software that works between Windows and iOS, to help with his adoption. I would prefer to use Microsoft Outlook, ToDo and One Note for personal use, but that requires a Micrsoft hosted email to work best (e.g. Flagged emails syncing to To Do) and we both have too much history tied to our Gmail address to switch.
Does anyone have a good workflow that allows easy capture of emails, ideas/thoughts into the GTD system that works easily on Windows devices and iPhone, when tied to a Gmail
