2Do
Love 2Do as it taught me what a proper task manager should look like.
I now use KusKus as my main task manager.
When I did use 2Do, I did it like so:
Here is how my sidebar looked like:
It also has global quick add with a hotkey. Together with lists, priorities, powerful search and a lot more.
I used 2Do only for personal tasks. Team & project tasks are done on GitHub.
Managing tasks with tags
My main way of managing tasks is with tags. This lets me give scope to the task I want to complete and lets me filter through the many thousands of tasks I have in my Inbox.
I create many smart lists of most common tags I want to jump to. I use j
key and macros that activate the URL scheme to jump between the lists.
I made my All
list sorted by Modified date
. This lets me cleanly delete or act on all tasks that have been sitting in my 2Do for too long with no activity.
I have 2Do setup to schedule a weekly Sunday review & plan task.
URL Scheme
2Do URL schemes documentation has everything. I use these URL schemes currently:
- Go to 2Do list from URL scheme:
twodo://x-callback-url/showList?name=PR
(would go to to PR list).
2Do tasks shared
I once used 2Do as replacement for Pocket for links to read/watch/check later.
I share a snapshot of these tasks.
