Chapter 16 — Tasks

16.1 Getting Started with Tasks

Download article

Use Tasks for errands, project steps, recurring chores, and work with a deadline. Your lists stay in LightDrive and can synchronize with compatible task apps.

Open Tasks

Sign in to the Vault and choose Tasks from the apps menu in the header. On a narrow screen, choose Open navigation to reveal your lists, Trash bin, and Tasks settings. Close navigation to return to your task list.

Create your first task

  1. Select a list, or choose Add List…, enter a name, choose a color, and confirm.
  2. Type a short title in Add a task to “[list name]”… and press Enter or use the add arrow.
  3. Select the task to open its details. Add a due date, notes, or a reminder if needed.
  4. Let synchronization finish before leaving. Resolve any save error before assuming the change reached your other devices.

Each list belongs to a task-capable LightDrive calendar. Tasks are saved with that calendar, not as documents in Files.

Tasks and Notes are different

A checklist inside a note remains part of that note. It does not create entries in Tasks or schedule task reminders. Use Tasks for due dates and reminder notifications, and Notes for writing. See 15.1 Getting Started with Notes.
