Use the "optionally on" setting.
In more detail, when you make a new to-do and click on the "due date/time" box, you'll note that (in the calendar mini-window) to the immediate left of the textbox is a drop-down menu that says, by default, "due by." You can change that to "optionally on." With this, even if you don't finish it on one day, it will show up as a new to-do the next day. |

Posted Mar 23, 2010 in: Reminders in SMS set via email?
Score: 0
If you want to see how they're progressing with updates, check the news forum. They post all updates there. There isn't anything beyond that. As was stated here and in many other threads, they will not comment on release dates of specific features. Asking the question and waiting for their answer is actually counterproductive; they have to spend time answering your question instead of working on the code to fix it. Be patient; they'll let you know when it's fixed.

The notebook feature currently seems to be a half-hearted attempt to provide a section where folks can write stuff to themselves. Its very simple, not well integrated into the rest of the site, and not available on the iPhone. However, leaving all that alone, it's even more simple in that its surprisingly difficult to write good notes; I need to actually write HTML code to make a simple list!
I would like to suggest that the developers incorporate something like TinyMCE, TidyRTE, CKEditor, or any other similar tool. All of these would require minimal work on the part of Toodledo developers, and would result in a much more useful feature for us users. Thanks! |

Posted Mar 12, 2010 in: toodledo dashboard widget (Mac) scrolling bug
Score: 0
This Mac Dev Center document may be relevant, but frankly that's a really screwy way to implement something as simple as scroll bars on the part of Apple. You may want to look into it anyway.

Posted Mar 11, 2010 in: toodledo dashboard widget (Mac) scrolling bug
Score: 0
There's some odd behavior in how clicks and drags behave on the dashboard. See this movie to see the bug in action. (Turn volume on; clicks can be heard through the speakers.)
In short, clicking and dragging on the scrollbar causes the widget to be moved instead of causing the scrollbar to scroll. I'm not sure if this is a dashboard bug or a widget bug, so I'm submitting it here and you can figure it out for yourself. :) |

Posted Mar 11, 2010 in: iPhone app: context separators in hotlist view
Score: 0
Currently, viewing the hotlist on the iPhone just shows a long list of stuff, without any more information:
 One downside I find is that I can't tell which items are today's items, which are overdue, and which are due three weeks from now. There's now easy way to do it. (Emphasis on easy... yes, you can just read the dates, but I can't do that at a glance... I have to look through each item and assess when its due, hardly an easy task with 30+ items.) There's a mechanism for such context separators on the iPhone, though! I give you the calendar app:  Note how the dates are separated by those funky floating section header tabs. Those are informative, intuitive, and unobtrusive. So, my request is that Toodledo implement a sorting mechanism in the hotlist view using that interface element. I personally would separate things via date, but I imagine it would be an option - sort via importance, date, tag, etc. |

Score: 0
Just so you know, those only appear when you sort by importance. Try sorting by something else... folder, due date... and they'll go away.
If you want your stuff sorted by importance, though, then your only option (AFAIK) is to use a different interface to your tasks list. You can try the slim interace for a different look. This message was edited Feb 25, 2010. |

I just wanted to add a +1 to the number of people requesting this feature (task dependency linking). Thanks!
* Posted here because in doing a search for "dependency," this was the most recent topic about it. Yay for reducing forum topic clutter! |

Score: 0
Both the FAQ section and the Tools & Services section ([1], [2]) seem to suggest that Jott is supported. You may want to consider editing/removing those pages.

Thanks for the response! I guess it's a case of "que sera, sera." Thanks anyway for an awesome app.

I'm pretty sure that the "Notes" in the booklet does NOT refer to the "notes" that you append to each task. Rather, it refers to a page with the title "Notes", where you can write your own notes in your booklet. Unless I've missed something, you can't print currently to-do notes in the booklet.

I don't quite agree with that argument. If they're telling you they'll provide a reminder 15 minutes prior, they don't mean "anywhere between 0 and 15 minutes prior." They mean 15 minutes prior, exactly. Whether they can deliver that is always a function of the current state of their servers as well as global internet congestion and traffic, the first of which they take pains to address (server upgrades, fast pipelines, etc) and the second of which they're at much at risk as any other web-based business.
In my opinion, they do the first very well... I never experience any delays with this site, and my reminders come almost instantaneously. The second is not something they can control for, and consequently not something which I as a reasonable customer can hold them accountable for. In light of that, this is a simple request for functionality which I think should have been there all along. They already offer "instantaneous" reminders for 15 min prior, 30 min prior, etc... why not immediate? I have yet to see a desktop to-do app which doesn't offer this functionality. |

Posted a nice review, hopefully it'll be there soon. Thanks again for an excellent website AND an excellent iPhone/iPod app!

You missed the second point in my post.
2) It would be nice if there would be a "remind me at this time" (i.e., 0 min before) option... not everything requires 15 minutes of planning. Thanks! |

Two separate points:
1) Currently, when I check the "remind me" checkbox, that action isn't saved until I select a time from the drop-down menu. (i.e., if I check the box and then navigate away from the "Date and Time" opoup window, no alarm is set.) This behavior is contrary to almost the entire rest of the site, where as soon as I make a selection the item is saved. 2) There should be a "remind me at this time" (i.e., 0 min before) option... not everything requires 15 minutes of planning. Thanks! |

Score: 0
Is that intentional? I mean, isn't the Toodledo iPhone app made by Toodledo™ (the company)? If so, I assume they have the resources and technical ability to make their own app access the entirety of their own service.
In any event, this was meant as a feature request. If The Powers That Be for some reason don't ever intend on adding this feature, that's fine, but I think its a perfectly reasonable request. |

This topic seems to have been brought up before (here and here), but over a year. I just wanted to mention to The Powers That Be that interest for this feature is still extant. It doesn't look like there's a way to do it currently... if there is, please let me know, and if not please put a +1 next to it in the "To-Do" list. Thanks!

As was said, feature already available via tags. While I do understand the "Toodledo isn't GTD" argument, context is clearly implemented here for the GTD folks. There are so many features in Toodledo (which aren't part of the GTD method) and you can already accomplish what you want using those methods. However, the idea to have a pop-up box with all your current tags and checkboxes is a good one. This could also be implemented using autocomplete and a drop-down menu, similar to google autocomplete. EDIT TO ADD: check out this post. It appears this feature is coming to the web interface sometime in the future. This message was edited Jan 08, 2010. |
