Likewise, you can take an event and drag it to become a To-Do Item, and it retains the Event there, and you can leave it in the calendar, or delete it. And then you can just delete the To-Do Item, and it remains there in your calendar. One neat thing you can do with To-Do Items, if you decide they need to be in the calendar - you can actually drag and drop them onto a date there, and it'll create an event from that. Uhm, and hopefully that just syncs across devices. I can also have it be part of another type of calendar, say, a mobile-me, or maybe in the future it'll be an I-Cloud Calendar. I can change that, and, uh, say, set it to go to my work calendar, and you can see it changes color to match that one. Now, To-Do Item, just like an Event, is attached to a calendar, so you can see why its color is attached to my home calendar. On an accomplished task, I can check it off, and it's done. These are separate from items in the calendar. So, notice now that I've got this To-Do Item and it's set for a due date of the 14th it's not in the calendar, though. I can also set what calendar it goes to and some notes, like a URL, or just some text information. So I can have it do a message, an email, uh, run a script - whatever I want. So, let me set it for a couple of days in the future, and I can set an alarm for that To-Do date, just like I can for, uh, an Event. I can give it a priority I can also give it a due date. Now, if I double-click, I'll get a little pop-up there that allows me to set more information. When I do, I get a list of To-Do items on the right, and I'll just name this one, like that. I could just go to File, New Event, but under that, I could do New To-Do and command K is the shortcut for that. Now, in the future, in line, these are going to be called Reminders, but the functionality is the same. Vents have a specific date and time to them, but To-Do Items can be added with no specific date and time, even though you can add alarms. Now, To-Do Items in I-Cal are different than a vent. On today's episode, let me show you To-Do Items in I-Cal. Video Transcript: Hi, this is Gary with MacMost, now. HOW TO MAKE IT BETTER: 1-Make sure it always confirms before deleting completed tasks.Ģ-Add the option of a white-on-black theme (like in iBooks), which is much easier on the eyes.Ĥ-Add the ability to drag the plus sign to where you want to put the new task.ĥ-$10/year?! Why is it a subscription service? This isn’t even a news app.Ħ-Increase the distance between the top checklist box and the “Back” button, so that it’s harder to press the wrong one.ħ-Move the trashcan icon to the Settings menu - some of us untick and retick tasks because we do them regularly, so don’t make it easy for us to lose all those ticked tasks.Ĩ-Remove the search bar from default viewing - it should show up only when we swipe down, just like in apps like iBooks.ĩ-Add the option to tick/untick all tasks in each checklist.ġ0-If you add a task but leave it blank, it should automatically be deleted.ĬONCLUSION: This is a good Google Tasks app, but there’s plenty of room for improvement and the subscription model should be dumped.Check out MacMost Now 564: iCal To Do Reminders at YouTube for closed captioning and more options.
