We now have the All and Completed smart lists across all platforms.

We also have a brand new Planned list, rolling out now on Android (version 2.17), and coming soon to other platforms. Here you get a distinct Tomorrow and Week view. You can also group the view by list.

    Still waiting for a smart list showing me all tasks without a due-date... It would really help ensuring I have all my tasks planned.

  • NicM commented  ·   ·  Flag as inappropriate

    Creating my own smartlists would be better, then predefined ones. So that I can say, the source are the following lists, rules for attributes (like due date is today) and list should be sorted by attribute x

    Grouping my the original lists in ALL Smartlist is useless. Why wouldn't you just go to the list you are interested in instead? I need a way to disable this grouping.

    Please make ALL smartlists groupable by the original lists AND sortable within these groupings !
    Otherwise the todos are mixed up in a big mess !

  • Anas Diab commented  ·   ·  Flag as inappropriate

    Smart lists are not so smart if they include too many distractions like my grocery shopping list or tasks in shared lists that are not even mine. There was an option in wunderlist to exclude takss not assigned to me :( Please fix ASAP

    The admin who keeps responding is really unhelpful... I need recurring tasks. There’s A LOT that needs to be improved.. these suggestions should be implemented ASAP. As a task planner it’s way behind others. Start working on these suggestions.

    I don't know why Today and Week were removed. Planned shows all your tasks for the next year which can be overwhelming.

    E interessante segmentar por cor, como no Trello por exemplo, para que numa lista de visão geral como a de listas gerais, possamos priorizar a execução no dia ou na semana.

    Agree with Big Greg and AB. Also I noticed with the last release that every time I re-open ToDoi my Planned list defaults back to just showing the week and not All like I had previously set. It’s annoying that I have to keep setting my list back to the way it was when I last viewed it. Please fix, thank you!

    I'm very disappointed with the Planned List changes on Android version 2.17, which I assume will soon arrive on my iPad & iPhone Todo apps.

    I loved the default grouping of my Planned list tasks by Earlier/Today/Tomorrow/Following Week/Later. It was the 1st thing I opened every morning. Now its gone - instead I have to review each of these groups individually, yes one by one, while I try to remember what tasks were shown on my previously selected Planned view.

    I'm also very disappointed with the functionality of the "view Completed tasks" option on the bottom of the each list - great idea, but no way to sort the completed tasks and they are not even sorted in the same order as the selected sort option for the incomplete tasks. Ideally they need their own sort option.

    Luckily I have an iPad because I'm not using ToDo on my Samsung phone since this release - just too painful.

    I understand why UI changes like these are requested, but they need to include configurable options.

    I need "assign to myself" feature so badly when it comes with managing todo list with our own team.

  • Bob commented  ·   ·  Flag as inappropriate

    Simple AND(&) OR(|) NOT(!)/NOT(~) and using of Brackets to make search queries would be very helpful.

    Also, if we could save these "filters" (or "queries") for filtering out tasks.

  • David Bowman commented  ·   ·  Flag as inappropriate

    Thanks for All and Completed they are appreciated. Now please prioritize the smart list those without a scheduled date. I really need that one.

    For anyone using Alfred on MacOS, I've put together a workflow to enable some of the functionality requested in this thread. https://github.com/johandebeurs/alfred-mstodo-workflow. Please feel free to use if you want to get some list customisation beyond what is available in the app. I'll work on some of the ideas posted here and see if I can develop the functionality for you to create your own smart lists
