Entering a due time in a task, for expediency I would normally just put in the hour eg "14"

In Toodledo this becomes 00:14, which seems extremely unlikely for a task.

Wouldn't it be a no brainer to have all 2 character times interpreted as 24 clock hours?

Cheers!

I agree, at least it should understand 14h being 14:00

As it is now you can enter 1400 for 14:00

(FAQ)
You can enter the time in a variety of formats: "2pm", "2:30pm", "14:40".

here some loosely related things collected from a quick search

NaturalDate .NET library enables Smpl users to enter both one time and recurring dates in natural language, replacing a normally complex user interface with a single text box.

Thanks for the suggestions. We can't comment on a timeframe for implementation, but these are on our to-do list.
