Tasks & Today

How do I capture a personal task in Tasks & Today?

Type it into the field at the top and press Enter or “Capture”. Day, deadline, duration and priority are understood in the same sentence, such as “book doctor's appointment tomorrow 10 min” (typed in German). Without a day it lands in the inbox, or on today when “for today if no day is named” is ticked.

1. 01Open Tasks & Today.
2. 02Type the task into the field, for example “change tyres fr”.
3. 03You can use today, tomorrow, weekdays, “bis fr” for a deadline, p1 to p4 and “jeden Montag” for recurring tasks (German words).
4. 04Press Enter. The line below says where the task landed.

What do I do with tasks that were left undone?

Overdue tasks are shown at the top, before you plan the day. For each task choose “Today”, “Tomorrow”, “Next week” or “Drop”, or move everything at once with “All to tomorrow”. Dropping deletes nothing: the task goes to Peak Task's archive.

Why does Tasks & Today show only three tasks for today?

Because rarely more fits into a day. At the top you get at most three things, first your Focus 3 from Peak Task, then by priority. Everything else for today is listed under “Also planned for today” and can be moved with “Tomorrow”. Next to it Peak shows your free time until 8 pm from your calendar. Tasks without a duration count as 30 minutes.

Why are my work tasks missing from Tasks & Today?

Tasks & Today shows only your personal tasks, meaning tasks without a company. New tasks land on your “My Day” board. It is the same task as in Peak Task, Day and Board; nothing is copied. Work tasks are in Peak Work and Peak Task, and nobody at your company sees your personal ones.
