To-dos, due dates and reminders

In short

Open To-Do in Planner to plan your tasks by day. Add a task, then open it to set a priority, a deadline and a reminder. Reminders appear in Zetrr's notification bell on the web and as notifications in the iPhone, iPad and Mac apps. Your to-dos are private to you.

Add a task#

  1. Click To-Do in the Planner sidebar.
  2. Type in the Add a task... box.
  3. Press Enter or click Add.

The task goes on the day you're looking at. Use the arrows next to the date to move between days, and switch between List, Month, Week and Day to plan ahead.

Set a priority, deadline and reminder#

Click a task to open it, or choose More actions → Edit task. Then set:

  • Priority: None, Low, Medium or High, shown as a coloured flag.
  • Description: notes, links or context.
  • Deadline: Tomorrow, In 3 days, In 1 week or In 1 month (all at 9:00 AM), or Or pick an exact date & time.
  • Reminder: In 15 min, In 30 min, In 1 hour, In 2 hours or Tomorrow 9 AM. Once a deadline is set, you can also choose At deadline, 10 min before, 30 min before, 1 hour before or 1 day before.

Overdue and finished tasks#

  • Unfinished tasks from earlier days show under Overdue at the top of today. Click Move to today to bring one forward.
  • Tick a task to complete it, or choose More actions → Mark as done. Finished tasks collect under Completed.

Where reminders appear#

  • Web: in Zetrr's notification bell, while you have Zetrr open in a browser tab. Planner on the web doesn't send browser push notifications.
  • iPhone, iPad and Mac: as notifications on the device. These apps also remind you at 9 AM on the day a card is due.
  • Android: the app doesn't show reminders yet. A reminder you set there still appears on your other devices.

Card due dates and task deadlines#

A card's Due Date is when the content itself is due, and marks the card Overdue on the board when it passes. A to-do's deadline is for that one task, and you can send it to your calendar: see Sync Planner with Google Calendar.

Questions

Can teammates assign to-dos to me?

No. To-dos are personal: each person sees only their own. Use cards and board chat to share work with your team.

Do my to-dos sync to the apps?

Yes. To-dos, deadlines and reminders sync between the web and the iPhone, iPad, Mac and Android apps.
