Add and edit items
Type what you need to do and open each item’s details to add a note, date and status.
Add an item
- In the list, tap ＋ Add item, type the text and press Enter. The focus stays so you can type the next item right away.
- You can also use + New → New item (or the floating + on phone).
Type the date right in the text
Totil understands dates in plain language. If you type “Pay rent by the 8th” or “Call the doctor tomorrow at 3pm”, it saves the item with the right date (and time) and cleans up the text.
Edit an item
Tap the item text to open its Details. On computer it opens in a panel on the right; on phone, in a panel that slides up from the bottom. There you can change:
- Title — the task name.
- Note — free text (for example, a quantity or a remark).
- When — the date and, if you want, the time and a period (see “Dates and deadlines”).
- Recurrence — repeat the task (see “Repeating tasks”).
- Status — To do, In progress or Done.
- Section — move the item to a section of the list.
Note
Changes save themselves as you type. The Close button just closes the panel. To remove an item, use Delete item inside the details, or the bin icon on the row itself (on computer).
Pro only
In Pro Mode, the details also gain Priority, Assignee, Steps (a checklist inside the item), a timed Reminder, Start and end dates, Notebook linking and task History.
