But then, unfortunately, I don’t think that Omnifocus can PUT a task on iCal. Omnifocus is ideal, because you can see both tasks and calendar on any particular day.

Todoist is poor in being able to view your calendar. Ideally you’d like to see both on whatever view you are using. Things that have to get done with no particular time go on a task list for a date. Also regularly scheduled events go there, too. I always had this thing where is there was a firm date and time for something then it went on the calendar. I’ve always struggled with the philosophy of tasks being on a calendar because of the overhead. Thanks for that reminder by the way! I actually forgot that you can create a calendar called Todoist and then post tasks to at date. I just need to play around a bit and figure out what role I need each to play where there is a bit of overlap. So in conjunction with a calendar / Todoist and Toggl it will still be extremely useful. But for me, it looks as though Agenda makes more sense than Evernote with how it works. A bit like email programmes, with a column for folders (projects), a column for emails titles (tasks) and a column for currently selected email (notes for currently selected task).Įveryone’s workflow and preferences are different. Maybe my ideal would be for Todoist to have task notes in a third column rather than a pop up box. That’s a great method - I forgot about the built in share extensions.Īnd I’ve figured out a workaround for what I was thinking of - because you can create a calendar of Todoist tasks, they can actually appear as calendar events in Agenda, and can then associate notes with them.Īt the end of the day, it maybe isn’t worth having task notes in Agenda rather than Todoist, but I like the way notes are presented in Agenda, as opposed ot the pop up box in Todoist. You probably will have to highlight the note part, CUT it, then paste it in the comments. There’s no amount of “integration” that would be faster than that without SPECIFICALLY writing it JUST for Todoist, which no one is going to do with ANY app.įor the record, if you go to System Preferences->Extensions on your Mac and check Todoist for both boxes, you can then select ANY note in Agenda, then either click the Share->Add to Todoist and the Task Title will be populated by the Title and note contents.

The whole thing takes less than 30 seconds to create start to finish. I then fill the rest of the task particulars out assiging project, priority and a date. I’ll highlight the title and then hit the key combo to bring up the Todoist quick entry, paste the title in the task, then if I want I’ll copy and paste the note contents (literally 3 clicks). That note will contain several notes or maybe processes. So what I do in Agenda is that I create a note with the title being the “task” title I’m tracking. I use Todoist quite often because it allows me to delegate tasks to my contractors real time, which is very valuable.
