The whole point is taking the bare minimum NEEDS from the calendar experience and adding them to the task manager. That would never work because I would have like ten tasks packed into one time slot. I don’t need the calendar view to see all my tasks as a kind of scheduled block. I don’t need all the functions of a calendar. duplicating basic functions of a calendar. As I have probably droned to death by now.ĭo you have any idea about how time-based scheduling / notifications could work other than duplicating the calendar functionality? I’m just thankful to have a linux app that syncs well. Because you do not have timed reminders you are having to duplicate that work in some other app and that is wearing you out. I want my task manager (Everdo) to be better so I can spend LESS time in my calendar. I don’t want Everdo to give me a better calendar experience so I can spend more time in my calendar app. OoOOOooor better yet, how about just adding timed schedules to Everdo. No wonder you are wanting calendar integration. You have to keep checking your calendar to figure out if you got the right tasks on there and then Everdo to see what needs to go on there. It just occurred to me that this means that you are constantly having to refer to both apps. This goes on the calendar, which is also on my phone In the morning I review the focus list and schedule what absolutely needs to happen at specific time. Their Linux app is a hack from the web addon I feel like crap using every time.I can FEEL their lack of care for their users.Nirvana / Everdo style projects are cleaner to understand than stacked tasks in Todoist and make less work.it is riddled with sync issues that have killed me.I’m sorry to say that Todoist does this wonderfully but I hate it for several reasons. The combination is what everyone is looking for. Ĭalendars can’t help us structure our tasks by priority and see them in different perspectives, Todo lists can’t tell us when things are over due We are looking for something that is more than a calendar and more than Remember The Milk. If you’re answer to timed reminders is ,“get a calendar app” then I need to duplicate all my Everdo tasks in my calendar app and the question becomes, “why not just use my calendar app to manage my tasks?”īut that is the whole point of why all of us are here. I wake up at 4 friggin AM just so I can manage my tasks so that throughout the day I don’t get screwed up. I get distracted by the businesses of the day. I need those times reminders in my pocket cause I’m taking to people all day. I need to do as much with my phone as I possibly can. My main line for most of the day is my phone. Not everyone is sitting at a computer and programming all day. But Andrei, that is your work flow for your kind of work. I think that Andrei is getting to functionality because he uses a calendar app to get his timed notifications. I’ve been down that road a thousand times with other apps. Timed reminders tell us what we need to do right when we need to do it! That is the only thing that works. Then comes night and you’re like"holy crap! Why didn’t I check it" and it never works. What ends up happening is the phone buzzes you and you see “check focus list” and you’re like, “yeah but I don’t have anything important in there right now” As for a general reminder throughout the day to check the focus list, MANY APPS HAVE done that and it has been utterly useless.
