I've used them for the last 18 months but I really need to be able to get my tasks into the app a lot quicker and from different sources. I want to see the right tasks at the right time. Maybe some other sorting options within the note just for tasks. Maybe a toggle to hide/show completed tasks and also list tasks by due date in the note itself. I'd like to not see completed tasks! My Work Tasks note has 516 completed tasks, takes 20 seconds to load and is a mess of completed and uncompleted. This is possible for notes but not tasks. This would open up a huge number of integrations.

I'd love Evernote at some point to update the public API so tools like Zapier can connect and add tasks. You can ask the Ai to sort your notes in natural language so it would be a nice natural progression to use this for tasks. This will create a task for tomorrow at 9am in my Work task list.Įvernote is not a million miles away from this when you look at Ai Search. This creates a recurring task with a tag called report and sticks it in my Work project or task list. In Todoist I can write: Write report for client every Monday, Wednesday and Friday #Work The biggie for me would using natural language to create tasks. What Evernote has to do to get my tasks back In Todoist I can do all of this and a bit more. Whilst getting notes into Evernote is a breeze, getting tasks in is not. I'd love to be able to just create tasks quickly.

#RECURRING TASKS TODOIST SOFTWARE#

A bit of a process.Īnother reason, right now there is no API for Evernote tasks so I can't integrate other software or my email. What I've been doing is having the CRM create a note with a tag ‘Flow’ and then a filtered note widget lets be see the task on my home screen and I can manually create this task. Not being able to email tasks into Evernote is an issue as my CRM and Invoicing software set tasks for me, things like remembering to invoice a client. The process of creating a task in Evernote takes a few clicks and when I'm adding three or four tasks at a time it can become tedious especially when creating recurring tasks. The biggest reason I'm shifting back to Todoist is because its much easier to get tasks in. Notes are great, almost instant but tasks can sometimes take a while. The sync from mobile to desktop is sometimes a little slow. I think I need to reinstall but I don't have time right now. The task widget on one of my PCs has tasks listed in a very random order and not by due date. Sometimes a task doesn't complete straight away so I have to re-complete it. I have a few small issues with inconsistent performance. I used Todoist for all my tasks since around 2014 and I was always happy but when Evernote introduced recurring tasks just over a year ago I shifted everything into the elephant and it worked well. My task list is built upon a lot of recurring tasks, things like invoicing clients, writing reports, booking hotels & train tickets, updating software and servers for clients. This means I need to be able to forget everything in my head, concentrate on the task I'm doing right now and be reminded about everything. My work involves training & consulting, actual design and development work, hosting two podcasts and running this newsletter.

My tasks are also to-do's and I work directly from my task list every single day. Before any drama starts I'm only moving my tasks and not my notes, in fact I'm doubling down on what I store in Evernote, its only tasks I'm moving but that's for another article.
