  • ⚙️ Francesca worked her magic in the calendar layout in Today and nudged tasks and events to the left, giving you more elbow room on the right to add new tasks.
  • ⚙️ Henning and Frankie brought clear logic to our search results: completed tasks are now ordered by their completion date instead of being grouped by project.
  • 🐛 The task action buttons decided to play ‘catch me if you can’ when you hovered over a task in the list layout. Game over – Craig caught them all.
  • 🐛 Previously, empty projects with grouping enabled wouldn’t display an Add task button. This has now been fixed by Paweł.

Android

  • ⚙️ If only time could stand still, but alas, it marches on. Thanks to Kris, the red line in the calendar now does too, updating every minute to show the current time.

  • 🐛 Sergey ensured that archived projects and tasks can’t be edited without being unarchived first.
  • 🐛 Kris resolved an issue that was preventing notifications for the morning overview and evening review from showing for some users.

iOS

September 5, 2024

Web, macOS, Windows, Linux

  • ⭐️ Pedro made sure that you can now also select multiple completed sub-tasks in the task view.
  • ⚙️ Ever selected several tasks and accidentally completed them? Now, thanks to Scott, you can easily undo the completion of multiple tasks at once. You need to be quick though, and click Undo in the pop-up that appears in the bottom right.
  • ⚙️ When selecting multiple tasks to remove their due date, we will now also remove the automatically created reminders. No more leftovers, thanks to Henning. 🧹
  • 🐛 Henning also made sure that when you get a desktop notification about a new project comment, we now actually take you to that comment.

  • 🐛 He also fixed a bug that prevented users from logging in with their Apple account.
  • 🐛 After loading all of your task’s comments from the task details view, it will no longer give you the option to "load older comments," thanks to Frankie.

  • 🐛 Olga made a fix to prevent the app from crashing when brought back from the background.

iOS

  • ⚙️ Witold did some tidying up and added a few cosmetic touch-ups to the calendar layout.
  • ⚙️ While he was working on the calendar, he also tweaked the vertical spacing of the All day section and increased the text size of tasks and events.
  • 🐛 Hiroki made sure you can once again create recurring tasks by adding a comma to days, like ev mon, wed, fri.
  • 🐛 When assigning a new task with a due time via Quick Add, the assignee will now receive a reminder if auto-reminders are enabled. All thanks to Nolan.
  • ⭐️ Nolan also ensured you can now select and assign multiple tasks across projects in a team workspace.
  • 🐛 Hiroki fixed a crash that sometimes occurred when opening the app from the Add Task widget.
  • 🐛 With Hiroki’s help, smart date recognition is once again working properly in Chinese.

  • 🐛 Francesca made it possible to scroll the list of tasks in the Calendar view’s “All Day” section in a popover.

  • 🐛 He also fixed a pesky bug that was causing crashes on phones and tablets.
  • ⚙️ Afzal improved talkback support in Calendar view.

  • 🐛 Kris added a silent sync attempt on logout.

iOS

  • 🐛 Anthony fixed an unpleasant experience where unverified users couldn’t share a project and had no explanation why.
  • 🐛 Tapping the result of running the "Create Task" action in Shortcuts now opens the project/section where the task was added, instead of opening Quick Add. A smoother experience thanks to Enric.
  • 🐛 Nolan fixed an issue so that after editing a label from the label filter view, the updated name is applied to all Tasks that contain that label and the list is refreshed to reflect the changes.
  • 🐛 Thanks to Anthony, the mailto: prefix on email addresses pasted into the Project and Workspace Invite fields will get removed automatically, rather than showing you an error message.
  • 🐛 Nolan made some minor UI improvements to the Large Home Screen widget, and aligned the section and row text.
  • 🐛 Enric fixed an issue where rescheduling multiple tasks with a due date but no time to a date with time only updated the date.
  • 🐛 Nolan added a Reschedule overdue tasks button to the large-size widget in the Overdue section header.
  • 🐛 Witold corrected the initial viewport in the Week Layout to include the current time when it’s after 7 PM. Previously, the current time was not visible in the evening hours.

August 22, 2024

  • 🐛 Kris fixed a scrolling visualization issue that happened when opening comments.
  • 🐛 Prateek made a very sensible fix: only show available teammates when assigning a task in a restricted project.

iOS

  • 🐛 Seeing all the emoji reactions to your task comments is a must. Luckily Nolan squashed a bug where these were being truncated.
  • 🐛 The autocompletion popup in comments when trying to mention someone was disappearing when moving the cursor. No more, thanks to Anthony.
  • 🐛 When deleting a section, Nolan has fixed it so we’ll now show a confirmation message to make it clear that any completed tasks will also be deleted with the section.
  • 🐛 Nolan also made it easier to see and edit the label that gets added to a new task automatically when you have tasks grouped by label in board layout. The label now shows in-line in the task name field, and sticks around when adding new tasks back-to-back using Quick Add.
  • 🐛 Also in Quick Add land, Hiroki fixed an issue where tasks weren’t being auto-assigned when writing “+me”.
  • 🐛 Anthony improved the appearance of the Overdue and No Date button in week layout when using large text sizes.

  • 🐛 Thanks to Enric, you can again use Siri to search tasks based on their due or creation date.
  • 🐛 Since July, four of you reported a crash when rescheduling tasks in the 3-day/week layout. Long story short, Witold to the rescue! No more crash.

  • 🐛 Witold also fixed some bugginess with the dragging preview of tasks in calendar.
  • 🐛 Paul made an update to remove an obsolete data security warning that was shown when you moved a project from one workspace to another.

August 15, 2024

Web, macOS, Windows, Linux

  • ⭐️ Ernesto added a way to see your current and upcoming tasks directly from the command menu! Head to YouTube to watch a quick demo.

  • 🐛 Thanks to Enric, the highlighted content in Quick Add is now updated when the theme changes while Quick Add is open.

  • 🐛 Thanks to Enric, dictation will no longer stop after parsing a date on iOS 16 and up.
  • 🐛 Witold fixed an issue preventing users from rescheduling tasks using drag and drop in the Week layout on iOS 16.0-16.1.

August 8, 2024

Web, macOS, Windows, Linux

  • ⭐️ Thanks to Francesca, you can now select and delete multiple completed tasks at once.

Android

  • ⚙️ He also made some improvements to make dragging tasks in the calendar a much smoother experience.
  • 🐛 Sergey worked on reminders and fixed a crash that sometimes occurred when creating location reminders. Then, he made sure that the !1hb shortcut no longer adds a second reminder by mistake. ⏰

iOS

  • 🐛 Nolan ensured that Quick Add doesn’t lose track of time when left open overnight. Now, when the clock strikes midnight, the date picker updates automatically. 🕛
  • ⭐️ Tap on Apply My Template in the project menu, and you’ll now see a button to browse all your templates in the gallery, courtesy of Paul K.
  • 🐛 Anthony fixed an issue where task count didn’t update when rescheduling overdue tasks in Today view.
  • 🐛 Thanks to Hiroki, you can now move tasks out of sections in a project.
  • 🗓️ Witold had another productive week working on the Calendar:
    • ⭐️ First, he added support for rescheduling all-day tasks with drag and drop: drag them to the calendar to give them a designated time slot. Note that you can’t yet remove due times by dragging tasks to the All Day section, but rest assured, it’s on Witold’s list!
    • ⚙️ He then continued tinkering with the All Day section, making the toggling via buttons ( arrows and x more) snappier, and horizontal scrolling a lot smoother while expanded.
    • 🐛 His final act of the week was to make sure that automatic reminders are instantly added when creating a task by long-pressing on the calendar.

August 1, 2024

Web, macOS, Windows, Linux

  • 🐛 Scott fixed it so that automatic reminders aren’t accidentally omitted when adding a task via the Calendar View. 
  • 🐛 Henning fixed downloads in the desktop app for your backups. 📦 Now there’s no need to use the browser app anymore. 
  • 🐛 Though it’s rare, he also removed the slight possibility of accidentally creating duplicate labels. 🔖🔖

Android

  • 🐛 Julia solved a very strange and Grinch-like bug: the name of the month December wasn’t showing up in the calendar headers. But fear not, Santa’s made his list in Todoist and has checked it twice – he’s in the double-completion feature alpha testing group – so everything’s back as it should be.
  • 🐛 Rasto fixed a rare-but-annoying issue where a crash sometimes happened when adding a file as a task (specifically related to Google Photos). 
  • 🐛 Olga made sure that your calendar toggles don’t get bumped aside by long calendar names. 
  • 🐛 Afzal made your checkmark animations more consistent in Wear OS and Team activity contexts. It’s the little things!

iOS

  •  🗓️ Witold added support for assistive technologies to the expandable date picker and enabled it for all users. Because the awesomeness of Calendar layout is for everyone!
  • 🐛 And because new layouts always need a bit of polishing, he also fixed several issues related to the Agenda layout in the Upcoming view (specifically addressing those nasty list-jump problems).
  • 🐛 On a similar theme, Hiroki implemented the ability to move an item between day sections in calendar layout of non-Upcoming views (like Project view).
  • 🐛 Nolan ensured that from now on, widgets will actually show tasks in their custom grouping, whenever such a custom grouping in selected (in the View settings). Logical!

July 25, 2024

Android

  • 🐛 Afzal tackled a series of issues with Wear OS:
    • Completed items can now be uncompleted. ✅
    • Randomly appearing "ghost tasks" 👻 should now be doing their haunting elsewhere.
    • Task counts can now display 3-digits without getting cut off. But maybe you need an assistant? 😊
  • 🐛 Sergey fixed two schedule-related issues:
    • On Wear OS, rescheduling a task no longer risks clearing its labels. Whew!
    • Refreshing calendar events shouldn’t get stuck anymore, blocking use of the app.
  • 🐛 Carrie used her eagle eye to correct some misalignments, like a circle around the date in 📅 that was slightly too small. Because these little details matter in helping you stay focused on what’s important to you!
  • 🐛 Pedro fixed an issue where events could be duplicated upon rescheduling... because you already have enough on your plate. 😉

iOS

  •  🗓️ Witold kept quite busy improving our Calendar:
    • ⭐️ First, a big improvement to our Week layout: you can now see all of your undated tasks using the dedicated "No date" button, in Project, Filter, and Label views. Click it to open the sidebar and drag your tasks right to the slot you want, and time-block your week with confidence! 💪
    • 🐛 Then, he made sure the overdue items in Upcoming view are all viewable, rather than just recent ones.
    • He also balanced some of the spacing in the Calendar layout to keep things looking spiffy.
  • Nolan came through with a bounty of Quick Add updates:
    • ⚙️ First, he improved the way preset labels work with Quick Add – now they’re added to the text field so you can delete them if you like. 
    • Then he made it easier to select the proper item from the suggested list in those cases where assignees or sections have the same name. 
    • But wait, there’s more: now you can use the short date format (jan, feb, etc.) to add a starting month to a recurring task (ex. "every 15th starting feb").
    • Finally, he added a space after you swipe to input the date, so your date is captured properly.
    • Then, as a bonus, he fixed a counting error in sections that was happening when filters were applied. 🙂

July 18, 2024

Web, macOS, Windows, Linux

  • 🐛 Frankie fixed an issue where keyboard shortcuts were erroneously disabled when certain hints and dialogs are shown.
  • 🐛 Francesca fixed two calendar issues:
    • One to ensure that events display correctly, even in "negative" timezones (i.e. those behind UTC) 
    • And one to make sure multi-day all-day events have the proper ending date.

Android

  • Afzal’s been holding down the fort and staying busy!
    • ⭐ First, he enabled you to allow dragging an all-day task down to a time slot in Calendar layout.
    • 🐛 Then, he made a few fixes to ensure your snackbars (those little mini-notifications that allow you to undo stuff) were both swipeable - if you want to get rid of them quickly – and fully functional, as a bug was messing with them.
    • 🐛 Finally, he made sure that the Events section from the new Calendar integration was being show in Today view, even with grouping applied. 📅 ✅
  • 🐛 Sergey wanted in on the fun too though, and fixed an issue where the task position was moving unexpectedly after being reordered in Upcoming and Today views. Now they stay put!

iOS

  • 🐛 Hiroki made sure that folder are sorted normally, even when their titles start with emoji. 🙌
  • 🐛 Anthony fixed a problem where duplicating a project wasn’t bringing the layout and view options with it. Now it’s working as it should, so your twin projects will be identical. 
  • 🐛 Witold fixed an occasional crash that would occur in 📅 weekly view when the time zone was changed. Now you can relax on those long flights, global jetsetters! 😊

July 11, 2024

Web, macOS, Windows, Linux

  • 🐛 Thanks to Frankie, now when you’re checking out the template gallery, setups with sub-projects will be correctly indented. Doing to Done is a great example of how to use sub-projects well. 🙂
  • 🐛 We also fixed a bug that caused updates to recurring reminders to not show properly in the app. All better now. 

Android

  • ⭐ Afzal made sure that your Events section is now shown in Today view when grouping is applied. Super handy, that!
  • 🐛 Carrie fixed the same setup indentation problem noted above, where subprojects weren’t correctly displayed. 💪
  • 🐛 Sergey fixed a few odd crashes that were sometimes happening after the Add Task window was closed. 

iOS

  • ⭐️ Nolan hooked up our Team Activity comments so that the newest comments are shown first. 
  • 🐛 Then he fixed a bug that was sometimes preventing you from tapping into a task title that contains a link.
  • ⭐️ We also fixed the task sorting on iOS to match the other platforms, like when a task has an emoji prefix. Now it still appears in correct alphabetical order. 🙂 A+ work!

July 5, 2024

Web, macOS, Windows, Linux

  • ⭐️ Now you can drag-and-drop multiple tasks to anywhere you like – while using manual sorting – in the Today and Upcoming views... that’s a long-requested feature, brought to you by d-n-d master Craig! 💪
  • 🐛 Labels and workspaces with an ampersand were not being parsed correctly in the "Filter by" option in the Project View Options menu. This has now been fixed, thanks to Ricardo’s careful attention.
  • 🐛 Thanks to Francesca, now multi-day events are displayed in the Upcoming view on the Calendar layout, even if they start prior to the current calendar date range. 
  • ⚙️ When moving a project to a workspace or back using drag-and-drop we made it easier to read its whole name. (They can now be longer, as is often the case in some languages. 🇩🇪🙂)

Android

  • ⭐ Rasto improved the location reminders, so you’re now prompted to open the task, which is probably why you set it in the first place. 
  • 📅 Pedro and Olga teamed up to make sure that when tapping on calendar events in the new layout, they open in the Google Calendar app. 
  • 🐛 We also fixed an issue where super-fast typers were overwhelming the search input field, causing letters to be skipped. No longer!
  • 🐛 Sergey fixed a weird issue in the 3-day layout where tapping and dragging one of two adjacent tasks could mean the wrong task was displayed later on. Now, it’s not weird at all, but works as intended.

iOS

  • Lots of behind the scenes improvements. (They’re not secret, just less interesting 😉.)

June 27, 2024

Web, macOS, Windows, Linux

  • ⚙️ Enhancement – Seva and Ernesto teamed up to make it much faster to drag and drop. (This is especially noticeable on large task lists.) Hopefully they’ll stop playing the "Drop it like it’s hot" remix now.

  • ⭐️ A new collaboration-easing feature: Craig hooked it up so we now allow dragging projects in and out of folders in the workspace overview screen. Nice touch!

Android

  • 🐛 Afzal smushed an infelicity in the way Android was dealing with mentions in comments; now they’re uniform across all platforms. 
  • ⭐ To help make the amazing new weekly layout easier to use, Olga added visual feedback when tapping on task in week layout, and also updated sorting in the all day section. 

iOS

  • 🐛 Witold was in fine form, crushing minor bugs left and right:
    • 🗓️ He fixed an issue with the calendar grid slightly scrolling vertically when horizontal scrolling in Week layout
    • 🗓️ Then he knocked out the glitch where the Week layout would use stale date for ‘today’ reference when the date changed.
  • 🐛 Anthony stopped the #TodoistZero screen from appearing in Today when it shouldn’t (like when a sorting options show no results)... but we have faith you’ll get there in time!
  • And lots of other hyper-technical stuff that isn’t worth detailing, but aims to make your experience smoother and more delightful!

June 20, 2024

Web, macOS, Windows, Linux

  • 🐛 Paweł fixed it so that if you’re using Calendar layout in Upcoming view and reschedule a task, the date link in the toast will open the Upcoming view to the specified date, instead of malfunctioning like an abandoned robot on a distant (very sandstorm-y) planet.
  • 🐛 When using the URL scheme to open the Desktop app Quick Add with pre-filled content, our Natural Language parser was ignoring all the matches, like a depressed eHarmony user. Ricardo has ensured that this is no longer the case.
  • 🐛 Previously, if you began to drag a task – ex. "finally propose!💍" – from the Calendar sidebar but then got cold feet and dropped it back in the sidebar, it wasn’t possible to drag that task into the Calendar to schedule it. But Paweł fixed it so you can now drag, drop, re-drag, and re-drop as many times as you like ’til you find the perfect moment. 
  • 🐛 Some of our users with recurring tasks with reminders were besieged by a vicious clone army of duplicate reminders. But Ernesto was able to fix the issue, and thus win us the clone war in one fell swoop.

Android

  • 🐛 Sergey introduced a number of small changes to make your template gallery experience better, including being able to click the video thumbnail to view Setup videos. 
  • 🐛 Afzal was able to make it so that when a user opens Workspace Overview screen, joined projects are the only ones listed by default. This should help make the Team Activity features easier to access, and keep your list more relevant to your daily needs.
  • 🐛 Pedro also made some tweaks and added some polish to our calendar layout, including stopping the app from jumping back in time a full year just because you wanted to use the weekly layout. Nice!

iOS

  • ⭐️ Witold added support for the Week layout in the Personal Label view (for Experimentalists only so far... so get testing! 🧪), and also 🐛 fixed a bug where tasks were losing their recurrence after being rescheduled. 
  • 🐛 Andris took care of an issue where some users weren’t able to navigate to the log in screen to use their MFA recovery code.

June 13, 2024

Web, macOS, Windows, Linux

  • 🐛 We’ve brought back showing you your recently used reminder locations – never should have left!
  • 🐛 The due date/time string for a recurring task was being overwritten when the due time was changed, forcing all future recurrences to have the new due time. But Ricardo fixed it so this is no longer the case.
  • 🐛 Dragging and dropping tasks to the sidebar project list wasn’t working right when a user only had a single project in their account. Now it’s as it should be.
  • ⭐️ Now when you hover on a task in the Calendar layout, you can complete it from the hovercard.

Android

  • 🐛 We realized that clicking a group of notifications wasn‘t doing anything. It should have opened Todoist, and now – thanks to Sergey – it does.
  • 🐛 We fixed a pesky crash on WearOS when changing the project during task creation
  • 🐛 We also fixed a scrolling visualization issue when opening a comment
  • 🐛 We fixed the completed task counter, which wasn’t correctly adjusting counts when users undid the completion of recurring items
  • ⭐ Add “View changelog” entry to Settings > About
    • 👆🏻Clearly the most important fix this week. 😉
  • ⭐ Updated “What’s New” icon in Settings

iOS

  • The iOS team has been super-busy, but most of their work has been pretty technical in nature, and thus probably not helpful for readers of this log. 
  • But there have been some layout improvements on iPad and fixes to minor issues in various languages. Poles and Norwegians, we got you! 🇵🇱🇳🇴

June 6, 2024

Web, macOS, Windows, Linux

  • 🐛 It wasn’t possible to close the calendar sidebar on small windows. This is now fixed. 
  • 🐛 Technical stuff: markdown was not being processed by the editor when it came from a macOS text replacement. This has since been fixed.💪

Android

  • ⭐ We brought back the "Search" shortcut when pressing the app icon
  • 🐛 Fixed a glitch where the add item/section options are visible in non-editable board projects

  • 🐛 And we’ve ensured that tooltips are now showing on calendar views

iOS

  • ⭐️ Added support for displaying and updating overlapping items and calendar events
  • 🐛 Andris fixed the issue where filtering by Due in projects wasn’t working right. Now the filter will include overdue items for Today and other values (as it should). And now there’s an "All" option for the Due filters that allows you to remove Due filters without resetting all of the view options.
  • 🐛 We improved strikethrough compatibility with the web when using markdown in Todoist.
  • 🐛 We fixed the crash that would happen when tapping on an invalid link

May 30, 2024

Web, macOS, Windows, Linux

  • 🐛 Previously, you couldn’t use the task context menu on tasks in the Calendar layout’s “more events” popover. Thanks to Paweł’s efforts, now you can. 
  • 🐛 Some users experienced a glitch where automatic reminders weren’t being triggered when the due time for a recurring task was changed after the task was overdue. Ricardo took care of it though, and now it works as it should.

Android

  • ⭐ Julia made a few tweaks to the View options menu screen to make it easier to use. (and nicer-looking, too.)

    • Show Assignee chip in Quick add in single-user workspace projects 
    • Show Assignee filter in View in single-user workspace projects
  • 🐛 Olga fixed an issue where some Pro users weren’t able to select the Calendar layout. Now it’s accessible as it should be. Oh, and now the project name shows up in 📅 layout too. 
  • 🐛 Julia also fixed an issue where rescheduling overdue tasks in a project were affecting overdue tasks in general. Now you can again reschedule them as you like. (Always good to clear them regularly though!)

iOS

  • ⭐️ Our 📅 alpha testers got a new feature, and can now add a new task by long-pressing on the timeline. Coming to everyone soon... (or soonish!)
  • ⭐️ We‘ve made it easier to browse the template gallery from an empty project. Why not use a handy template if there’s one that’s just there waiting for you?
  • 🐛 Pro users with a free workspace were having trouble creating reminders in that space, but Anthony was able to resolve it.
  • 🐛 A few reminders fixes:
    • We now show the number of reminders in Task list rows
    • Like on Android, we now make it easier to add multiple reminders for a task by hiding suggestions you’ve already used.
    • We’ve added a collaborator avatar on the Reminders page for shared and team workspace projects, to make it easier to keep track of who‘s doing what when.

May 23, 2024

Web, macOS, Windows, Linux

  • 🐛 Some completed tasks in the search results were being detected as uncompleted tasks when selected. No longer!
  • 🐛 Past reminders were still being shown in multiple places after being triggered, but Ricardo fixed that.

  • 🐛 Olga took care of a few small calendar issues, including one where the indicator for busy days wasn‘t showing in the calendar date picker. Progress in our “year of the calendar” continues!

iOS

  • ⭐️ Paul hooked it up so now the app can open the template gallery when the user taps on a link to a template category from the template page of our main site.
  • ⭐️ Just in case, we added the ability to assign tasks to yourself, even if you’re in a single-user workspace. But we still think you should invite some friends to join you!
  • 🐛 Andris took on the challenge to improve search performance for accounts with a large number of items (as in more than 10,000). That little lag is a thing of a past.

  • 🐛 In some scenarios, after editing a task without saving the changes, the discard button didn’t work properly. Now it’s functional.
  • 🐛 We fixed an issue where the sidebar settings weren’t able to be saved
  • Two “due” issues:
    • 🐛 Before, when due dates were set based on a fixed time zone, they might display the wrong value relative to the device’s time zone in the task details modal and scheduler.
    • 🐛 A similar bug – when due dates were based on a fixed time zone, reopening the time popover in the scheduler changed the due date based on the time zone difference. Both of these bugs have been squashed.

Android

Web, macOS, Windows, Linux

  • 🐛 Keyboard shortcuts will no longer trigger erroneously after creating subtasks in the task detail view.

  • 🐛 Having multiple projects with the same name and selecting one from the inline project picker in the task editor could result in the wrong project being selected under special circumstances. This has now been fixed. Also, maybe don’t use the exact same name? 😅

  • 🐛 When tapping save in Quick Add, if there are any Korean input tokens that haven’t been finalized, finalize them, so we match the behavior of the Web version.

April 25, 2024

A pretty big release, everywhere: Setups in our Templates Gallery! Read more here: What’s New

Web, macOS, Windows, Linux

  • 🐛 For a while there, if you tried to assign a task to yourself (using natural language) in an unshared workspace project, the +Me text wasn’t highlighted and the assignment didn’t happen. But we’ve fixed that, so now you can give yourself all the tasks you need! 
  • 🐛 In certain rare use cases, the first label wasn‘t auto-focused in the auto-complete editor dropdown when the user filtered the items. Now it‘s as it should be.

iOS

  • 🐛 We’ve stopped Todoist from automatically scrolling to the selected due date when the calendar picker is resized, or when the "due date" text input field is tapped. It also adds a scroll to the top button to return to the top of the calendar picker when a due date in the distant future is selected.
  • Some links were getting interpreted as dates when using quick-add in Japanese. No longer! 🙏
  • The reschedule button for the overdue tasks column wasn’t always working properly when using board layout for a filter that included overdue tasks. Now it should be, so you can buy yourself that extra bit of time you undoubtedly deserve. 
  • We’ve fixed an odd little crash that was sometimes happening when using the keyboard shortcut for creating a new task, while in calendar layout, on an iPad.
  • We’ve fixed two issues with manual sorting, so you can fine tune things to your liking.

Android

  • 🐛 First, we fixed a crash that happened when enabling/disabling drag and drop
  • 🐛 Then we fixed one that sometimes happened when rescheduling tasks from a collapsed overdue section
  • 🐛 We’ve sped up the loading of completed tasks in goal celebration sheet, so you can party more quickly!
  • 🐛 We fixed that thing where sometimes it was hard to switch the layout in your workspace projects, because flexibility is key!

April 18, 2024

Web, macOS, Windows, Linux

  • 🐛 Sequential keyboard shortcuts typed in quick succession didn’t activate, needlessly punishing our swift-fingered users. This has now been fixed.
  • 🐛 Shared labels were not appearing in the task editor’s labels suggestions list, but now they are. So you can once again work from the same label toolbox. 

iOS

  • 🐛 We fixed sorting on WatchOS app when a custom Grouping is selected, when viewing your task list from Inbox, Filters and Personal Labels
  • 🐛 The “Featured” category in the templates gallery was not translated, but now it is. 
  • 🐛 We improved the Calendar picker by fixing an issue with a wrong day position after collapsing to the week layout on older iOS versions (pre-17.2). Now your days will display as they should. 
  • 🐛 We have a new explanation of how to access more filters – hint: upgrade – when users who are seeing value from them hit the limit.
  • 🐛 Reduce intermittent crashing that would sometimes occur under specific circumstances when looking at the items in List layout.

Android

  • ⭐ We updated our Design System colors. 
  • 🐛 We fixed three types of pretty rare crashes. You probably never experienced them, and now you never will.

April 11, 2024

Web, macOS, Windows, Linux

April 4, 2024

Web, macOS, Windows, Linux

  • ⭐ Tasks in the Calendar layout now use the priority as the background color.
  • 🐛 Some task attributes pickers in the task editor (e.g., Due date, Priority, and Assignee) did not insert a natural language highlight like all the other pickers. Now they all behave consistently.
  • 🐛 Whenever you cancel the task editor with unsaved changes, we’ll be sure you’re reminded to save if you want to.
  • 🐛 But, in contrast to the above fix, a new, empty task editor does not ask if you want to discard changes... because there haven’t been any. 
  • 🐛 The date picker in the upcoming view was not properly scrolling down the view to the selected date. Now it works as it should.
  • 🐛 The Natural language match highlighting for shared labels was not being added to the task name editor when picked from the Labels button. Now the highlighting is working again.

March 28, 2024

Web, macOS, Windows, Linux

  • 🐛 The duration combobox in the scheduler popover could become quite empty with only the "No duration" option if an edge case criteria was met. This is no longer the case, and all the available durations show up again

iOS

  • 🐛 🗓️ To ensure readability of the Calendar picker in larger text sizes, we restored the large content support to the day buttons in the Calendar picker and added support to the "Today" button
  • ⭐ 🗓️ Hide "Today" button when we’re already viewing tasks for today
  • 🐛 When viewing a project in a widget you’ll now see the same items you would if you were viewing the project in the app. Prior to this change, widgets would show all the items in a project, ignoring any filters. Now the widget applies any filters that have been set on the project in the app

  • Todoist has been revamped with a fresh, simplified layout! The cleaner look and feel will help you focus on what matters – completing meaningful tasks and making the most of your day. Learn more about the new layout.
  • You can now see if (and how many) sort or filter options are applied to your view, by looking at the number that appears next to the View icon at the top-right. (All the ways to sort or group tasks in Todoist.)
  • You may have encountered some delays when showing completed tasks in your views. This will no longer be a problem.
  • A connection alert will now appear below Quick Find‘s input field if there‘s something wrong with your connection to our servers.
  • Deleting completed tasks from the search results page wasn’t working properly. That’s been fixed.
  • After a recent update, our magical filter engine could no longer recognize “next weekday” in a filter query. Abracadabra, it can now.
  • After moving a task, the sidebar will no longer become unresponsive when you click on the project link in the pop-up at the bottom of your screen.
  • If a search yields no results, we’ll no longer tease you with the option to “Show more results” (because there aren’t any). Now, you’ll see the option to immediately search for completed tasks instead.

iOS

  • Navigating Todoist is now easier with the newly introduced simplified layout and navigation bar at the bottom of the screen. This is how it works.
  • It’s now also possible to view filters and labels in the board layout. To change the layout, tap the three dots icon, select View, and tap the Board icon. Then, group tasks by project, priority, label, or other attributes to see your filtered tasks arranged in columns.
  • If you’ve set your Todoist to Korean, you’ll be happy to know that it’s now possible to set a task duration in Korean using natural language in Quick Add.

Android

  • Explore Todoist with ease thanks to the fresh, simplified layout and the addition of a navigation bar at the bottom of the screen. Here's a quick run-through.
  • We've resolved an issue that was causing glitchy behavior in the view options. Now, filter by assignee and the Reset all button are running smoothly again.
  • After a recent update, setting a task duration wasn’t possible in some languages … because the OK button was missing. It’s back now.

Explore the other known issues that are still in our pipeline.

Nov 16, 2023

Web, macOS, Windows, Linux

  • Thanks to some tweaking, tasks with long descriptions or comments are now printed properly across multiple pages.
  • Clicking the X icon to remove an assignee from the task details was an impossible task. Not anymore.
  • Recently, completed tasks started appearing in the wrong order. They’re now shown in the correct chronological order again (most recently completed at the top).
  • You can now also select multiple completed tasks and delete them from the toolbar or context menu. (Tip: To select multiple tasks, hold down Ctrl or Cmd and click the task names.)
  • Before in board layout, moving multiple tasks from one column to another didn't always work if you needed to scroll. Now, it does.
  • We get it: sometimes, a timely reminder is not what you need right now. So now it’s possible to snooze reminder notifications. (Soon also available on macOS.)
  • When you copy a comment that includes a @ mention of a person, the mentioned tag will now remain intact upon pasting into a new comment.
  • Thanks to a bug fix, attachments will no longer vanish when you edit a comment.
  • We also solved some other issues with attachments in comments. Before, when editing a comment, attachments couldn’t be added, removed, or even seen. That’s all fixed now.

Android

  • Quick Add shortcuts weren’t working properly in Korean. Thanks to some language lessons and tweaking, they are now. (If you want to refresh your memory, here’s a list of all the shortcuts in Quick Add.)

Check out some of the other known issues that are currently on our radar.

Nov 9, 2023

Web, macOS, Windows, Linux

  • Labels for completed sub-tasks weren’t always displayed properly, but they are now.

  • When grouping tasks by label, the order of the groups once again follows the order of the labels in the label list.

Android

  • Fixed an issue that caused the app to crash after opening the Productivity view.
  • We also said bye-bye to a bug that caused Todoist on Wear OS to crash. 👋
  • Accidentally completed a task in Todoist in the Noir theme? No worries, now that the UNDO button is visible again.

  • Thanks to some language lessons and tweaking, it’s now possible to set a task duration in Korean using natural language in Quick Add.
  • Sometimes when creating or editing a filter, the dialog would close unexpectedly. That’s now fixed.

  • If you’re on the free plan, it’s once again possible to remove a task’s due time in the scheduler. (You can also now remove a task’s duration if it has one).
  • Thanks to some tinkering, the emoji picker is running smoothly again. 🎉

iOS

  • We squashed a nasty bug that caused the app to crash after launching.
  • A few visual touch-ups to keep Todoist looking its best.

Android

  • Remember those tweaks we did last week to ensure that task attribute icons are no longer cut off by long project or section names? Well, that caused labels to disappear. 🙈 Labels are now visible again, but we’ll continue working on those attribute icons. To be continued.

Take a look at the known issues for a list of other bugs we're hoping to squash soon.

Oct 26, 2023

Web, macOS, Windows, Linux

  • When pressing the shortcut T to set a due date, the scheduler sometimes appeared off-screen, making it difficult to select a future date. We made sure that the scheduler is now always positioned on screen.
  • Thanks to some tweaks, adding a task to Todoist from our Quick Add browser extensions is now much, much faster. (You can download Todoist for your browser here.)
  • It is once again possible to connect Todoist to your Facebook account.
  • We squashed a bug that caused recurring tasks to disappear when they were completed in a different language (e.g., in a browser set to a different language or by a collaborator that uses Todoist in a different language).
  • We’ve done some tweaking on drag & drop to make sure that projects are dropped in the right place.
  • When rescheduling a task with a due time, the automatic reminder will now also be set accordingly.

iOS

  • Now also on iOS, changing your project’s layout just got one tap faster with a new and improved interface. Go to the project menu via the three dots icon in the top-right, select View, and tap the List or Board icon to select the desired layout.
  • When setting a due time, the time zone section was temporarily invisible. It’s back now.

Android

  • If you use a password manager on your device, you can now also use its autofill function to enter the code for two-factor authentication. (Have you enabled two-factor authentication yet?)
  • It’s now easier to delete labels or filters: When viewing a label/filter, tap the three dots icon in the top-right corner and select Delete.
  • A task’s duration will now also be copied when you duplicate the task.
  • We’ve done some tweaks to ensure that task attribute icons are no longer cut off if you have a long project or section name.
  • Links to a section of a project are working properly now.
  • We accidentally made the divider lines in widgets way too dark. They’re back to their correct color.
  • All text is again visible in Dark mode now that it’s displayed in the right color.

  • After taking it out for a spin, we’ve decided to relocate the toolbar for editing multiple tasks to the top. Thanks for your feedback!
  • We’ve fixed some scrolling issues that occurred in Upcoming when using the board layout.
  • The layout of reminder notifications has been updated. Now, the task name is placed front and center, and the notification includes the reminder time. It’ll make reading reminders at a glance easier, so you don’t lose time deciphering them. (Learn more about reminders)
  • Thanks to some tweaks, selecting and editing multiple sub-tasks when you’re in the task view is now also possible.

iOS

  • When recording audio comments in tasks with Todoist in the Sunflower theme, you’ll now have a clear view of the Cancel and Attach buttons. (This is how to record audio comments in tasks.)
  • A task’s duration will now also be copied when you duplicate a task.

Android

  • If you have a Samsung device, you’ll be happy to know that your device’s predictive text feature will no longer interfere with creating tasks in Todoist.
  • We’ve resolved an issue on Xiaomi devices where the app would occasionally crash when typing.

  • Your long task lists in Todoist will now load faster and scroll smoother thanks to a nifty little update called list "virtualization." Basically, this means we only load the tasks you can see on your screen. (Tell me more about those virtualized lists.)
  • We’ve made some fixes to task durations to make sure they no longer disappear when you unhighlight a date in the task’s name.
  • At times Todoist on web could get stuck on the loading screen. That’s now fixed.

  • Thanks to a bug fix, you’ll no longer see the incorrect “label already exists” message when you rename your label from lower to uppercase.

  • On iOS, you now also have the option to permanently display the completed tasks of a project. Go to the project menu via the three dots icon and tap Show Completed Tasks to take a look at your “to-done” list. (Settings will sync across devices and in shared projects.)

  • We’ve redesigned the toolbar for editing multiple tasks and moved it to the bottom of your screen for easy access. Watch Amir’s quick demo of the new design.
  • It is now also possible to assign durations to multiple tasks at once. (ICYMI, task durations are now available on our paid plans!)
  • Reloading the web app is now even quicker, thanks to some under-the-hood changes to the way we release updates (they’re now released 50x faster!) 🚀

iOS

  • Your tasks will now also appear in the correct order in widgets and on your Apple Watch.
  • We fixed an issue where long text was cut off in the Settings menu, making it hard to read in certain languages.
  • After some reconfiguration, complex filter views will now take less time to load in widgets.
  • We did some tweaking to make sure you can no longer complete an uncompletable task in the interactive widgets on iOS 17. (More about uncompletable tasks.)
  • Thanks to a bug fix, moving tasks to a different project using the search field is working once again.

  • You can now choose to display the completed tasks of a project permanently. Go to the project’s view options (the View icon at the top-right) to select if you want to show (or hide) completed tasks. Your settings will sync across devices and – for shared projects – between teammates. (Here are more ways to keep track of your “to-done” list).
  • Thanks to some tweaks to reminder notifications on macOS, clicking on a notification will now open the task in Todoist. Plus, the Complete button will now … well, complete the task. ✅
  • To copy the link to a task, you can now use the keyboard shortcut Shift ⇧ + Cmd ⌘ + C or Shift + Ctrl + C. (Save time in Todoist with this complete list of keyboard shortcuts.)
  • Updating your time zone settings is now much clearer, thanks to some refining and rewriting.

  • In our never-ending quest to simplify Todoist and speed up your workflows, we’ve unified traditional search and our (rather hidden) command menu into one Quick Find bar. Consider it your central hub for finding, navigating to, and doing anything in Todoist – without lifting a finger from your keyboard. Just type Cmd/Ctrl + K, and off you go. 🚀
  • Never lose a comment with our new comment editor. From now on, closing a task won’t discard your unsent comments. Instead, they’ll be saved as drafts so you can finish and send them at your convenience. Plus, clicking outside the comment field will no longer dismiss the comment you’re working on. There’s now a Cancel button for that.
  • Drag & drop keeps getting better and better: You can now also drop tasks into collapsed project sections.
  • When you write dates within code blocks in Quick Add, they will no longer convert into due dates.
  • Printing wasn’t working correctly on the activity log with filters enabled, but now things are back to normal. (Learn how to print your tasks.)
  • We’ve fixed a bug that caused an error to appear when you dragged a task out of the Overdue section in the Today view.
  • Thanks to some multilingual fine-tuning, our Quick Add in French, Brazilian Portuguese, and Russian no longer confuses task durations for due dates. (Did you know Todoist is available in a variety of languages?)

iOS

  • To change the language of your app, you now have to go to your device’s Settings app (here’s how).
  • We’ve fixed a bug that caused the Quick Add button to disappear after you viewed an archived project.

  • We accidentally removed the globe icon in the scheduler for tasks with a fixed time – it’s back now. (🌏 Tip: Do you collaborate with people across the globe? A fixed time ensures the due time of your task stays the same regardless of your time zone. Learn more.)
  • From now on, when you upload multiple files and one file exceeds the size limit, we’ll only remove that file and make sure the rest gets uploaded as you intended.
  • See your teammate’s avatar photo appear instantly after assigning multiple tasks at once. (Try these batch actions to manage your tasks more efficiently.)
  • Reschedule a task, and you can now jump directly to the new date in the Upcoming view. Just click on the date in the pop-up at the bottom of your screen.

  • While setting reminders, scrolling through the time options with the and arrow keys now actually allows you to select a time for your reminder instead of navigating to a different task in the list.
  • Your recent activities are looking a lot prettier now that Markdown formatting is displayed properly in the activity log.✨

  • You can now turn off the daily/weekly goal celebration pop-up entirely from the Productivity tab in your Settings.
  • In a customized sidebar, the dragging and dropping of projects wasn’t always working properly. That’s been fixed. (In case you missed it, you can decide what shows up in your sidebar.)

  • You can again use ctrl/cmd + click to open links that point to other Todoist tasks in a new tab rather than annoyingly taking over the tab with the original task.
  • The "No Due" suggestion in the task details due date picker will now remove the due date like you would expect.
  • It was momentarily not possible to re-enable smart date recognition after disabling it. Now if you find you miss auto-detected due dates, you can feel free to change your mind. (A reminder that you can also easily “undetect” due dates in task names on a case-by-case basis for when you want to write a monthly report and not have it automatically schedule for the first of every month, for example.)
  • For some rare filters, the preview in the new Filter Assist would display no tasks when, in fact, tasks existed. Or would display different tasks than the actual task view. The Filter Assist preview now matches what the filter will actually show. (Uhhh, what’s Filter Assist again?)
  • Task Quick Add shortcuts weren’t correctly displaying projects and labels with certain emojis in the name (e.g., 9️⃣ and *️⃣). We no longer discriminate based on emoji. Even the really weird ones. You do you.
