Key features
Errands
- Multiple task lists
- The app supports multiple task lists, so separate areas of work can each have a list of their own.
- Tasks and sub-tasks
- Tasks and their sub-tasks can be added, edited, removed and marked as completed.
- Accent color for each task
- Each task can be given its own accent color.
- Nextcloud and CalDAV sync
- Tasks sync through the python-caldav library with Nextcloud Tasks and other CalDAV providers. The README says only Nextcloud is supported and known to work well.
- Drag and drop and .ics import
- The app supports drag and drop, and tasks can be brought in by importing .ics files.
KomoDo
- Works on todo.txt files
- KomoDo opens any file that follows the todo.txt specification and can create new ones, so a list stays in a plain-text format that other todo.txt tools read.
- Tasks shown as cards
- A line with a priority, a date, a +project, an @context and tags such as due: is parsed and shown as a card, not as raw text.
- Add, edit and delete tasks
- Tasks are added, changed and removed from within the app, which works directly on the todo.txt file.
- Filter and search
- The task list can be filtered and searched. Version 1.5.0 sped up search and fixed loading of a saved filter.
- Built-in todo.txt help
- A help section inside the app explains the todo.txt specification, which the project says makes it suitable for newcomers to the format.
- Inline links and launch arguments
- Version 1.6.0 added Markdown-style inline links in tasks, and version 1.5.0 added arguments for starting the app from the command line.
