I have found this to be a key feature in keeping me on track for the day. My Day will allow you to add in independent tasks and items from other lists to build out a picture of tasks to be completed within that day. For me, this is the daily list I work from. Every morning, booting up To-Do will display a wonderful, blank canvas called My Day.

To-Do can easily be overlooked as just a list/task tracker, but it has so many built in features that have elevated my productivity game, the first being the “My Day” functionality. Any tasks created from within the “My Day” view will also appear under the “Tasks” section and anything that was not completed previously. There is a “Tasks” view where all tasks not linked to a list are housed. Tasks also do not have to be contained within a list. There is also an option to add a task to your “My Day” view, which we will cover next. Tasks also have other functionality like the ability to make something a recurring item – if you have something you do every Monday at 10:30am, To-Do can set up a task to make it pop up every week at that time. That’s a whole lot of organisation from within one line item. In the case of the below task, I was able to create a number of sub-tasks, assign it to a team member, set reminders, write some notes, attach files and set a due date. However, other tasks might require things like a description or even some sub-tasks. For a grocery list, you probably only want to list items as they require no further explanation. First, a task can be as simple or as complex as you like. Even the tasks have an amazing level of detail that allows you to completely tailor your own To-Do experience.
