Enable keyboard shortcuts to add tasks even faster

Speak your tasks directly into your to-do list with Alexa
If you want to add tasks from anywhere, it’s hard to beat the ability to simply speak. We’re happy to say that Toodledo supports Alexa via IFTTT.
To get started, you’ll need an IFTTT account. Once registered, you can have Alexa add a Toodledo task whenever you say "Alexa, add _______ to my to-do list".
Power up your process with repeat tasks
The easiest way to upgrade your task list productivity?
Repeat tasks.
Set it and forget it. You get the benefits of being reminded to do more and spending less time writing down that you need to do something.
While this is great for daily or weekly tasks, this really shines for infrequent but important tasks. Things like "close out quarterly accounts" or "book Holiday flights" or "plan anniversary gifts".
Turn on reminders so you never forget to tackle a task
Toodledo can send you a reminder before a task is due.
For this to work correctly, you need to do three things:
- Set your timezone in your account settings
- Enable and use "due date" and "due time" in Tasks Section by clicking edit in Fields and Function of the Tasks Section in Account Settings.
From there, you can create an alarm for any by clicking the "Alarm" checkbox when editing the task's due date.
