ral613	Posted Nov 05, 2020 in: ToodleDo Failed, How to Migrate to a New App Score: 0 ral613 Posted: Nov 05, 2020 Score: 0 I've been moving about 650 tasks out of Toodledo to various other products (Todoist, Microsoft To Do, TickTick, etc.) Only a few of them make it convenient. Although TickTick looks best IMO, you have to be careful -- its Toodledo import does not import notes attached to tasks. They did not respond when I asked them "WTF?" Remember The Milk can import a Toodledo XML backup file, and that works well. All fields get imported. Zenkit Todo can also import from Toodledo, but it is missing saved searches, tags and contexts, so not useful to me. What I eventually did was export .CSV from Toodledo, then import the .CSV into Outlook 365 on Windows (with a bit of rearranging of fields). At that point I could use Microsoft To Do as well as Outlook tasks. That takes me back to where I was years ago after Palm Desktop, but it works fine. I wanted to try TickTick, but what I had to do to load up all my tasks is go onto my iPhone and connect Apple Reminders to my Hotmail account (this gets the Outlook tasks into Reminders), then in the TickTick IOS app, import from Reminders. That worked perfectly, but what a convoluted process. So now I am using Microsoft To Do. I already have an Office 365 account, so that's the best solution for me, and the To Do product is simple and effective. If that were not the case, I would be using TickTick.
