Ton of New shortcut actions, not clear what they do

I was trying to create a new shortcut for my iPhone this morning and am now seeing a ton of new actions under ToDoist in the shortcut app, but it’s honestly not clear what they do. I feel this is likely a bug and these were placeholders or to be named later. I imagine this is the case, but does any one know if there is more to this?

Question re: Reminder sync function

Hi,

I just got the lifetime purchase. Very excited to use with my remarkable tablet.

I see there is a reminders sync option. I tried it and it downloaded a ton of reminders, but it’s not clear from group of reminders Is there a way to specify which reminder group to sync from? There are some I really would not want it to pull from l, such as the shared grocery list or a reminder list that my wife and I use with our son to track and remind him of tasks at home.

Really love the app though. Taking some time to adapt to how to use all of the functions, but I’m starting to pick it all up. The onboarding was a little overwhelming for me (lots of info and processes all at once before getting other parts fully down) so I am still working through it.

Thanks!

Scan feature > email feature?

I just got ToDoist in the last week and I’ve been really enjoying it. I’ve been trying to use the email task feature, which is good in concept, but I’ve found the appointments or to-do that it creates with the emails forwarded to it really are lacking, to say the least.

It seems to just cram all of the email info in there and leaving me to clean it up. I’ve found copying and pasting the text of the entire email into the add task manually to use the scan feature is 1000x better, more accurate and much more helpful. Am I doing something wrong? I would have thought emails it receives would be scanned and created better the same way.

Is this a known issue, or do I need to do something different? I’ve found using the integration with Canary email isn’t the greatest either and doesn’t really seem to scan to build a task based on the text of the email either.

Hi - the update that went out is great! I like being able to type vs talk, helps out when I have limited privacy. Do you see being able to sync with Apple and Google calendars in the roadmap? Also, the ability to link and sync with the Apple reminders app would be great. I don’t know if that information could prove helpful not just to us, the users, but possibly to improve the interaction with the AI? I know some may not want that info shared but it would be nice to have the option.
