When you sort tasks by time is there a way to have tasks without a time appear before tasks with the time?

I think having tasks without a time after the tasks with the time is not very convenient - it typically means either you have to assign a time (it has to happen at a specific time, but you missed adding the field), or it means you can do it any time of the day, so I should consider to do it now.

For example, if it's 2pm and I have the list

* 6pm Meet Andy

* Clean up my room

This ordering is absolutely not how you want to order things. And I cannot think of a reason in the world why you'd order them this way. I want to consider "clean up my room", and not feel like there is nothing to do until 6pm when I meet Andy. maybe I want to assign 8pm to it, so it moves after the meeting with Andy. I definitely don't want to think about the tasks in the order above.

It's also not consistent with other apps. Look at, for example, Google calendar which has all day events and tasks at the top, before all the specific events and tasks.

There's more than one way to use the + button.

• Drag left or right → Reposition the + button

• Drag onto a group → Create a task with that group's properties

• Drag to the bottom-right of a task → Create a subtask

• In Week View, drag onto a date → Create a task for that day

I love TickTick and there's no app that beats it in this space. I've left to use Todoist + Reclaim but I always find myself coming back. The user experience is hard to beat, the notifications never fail(especially the persistent reminders), the calendar just works and it even has habit tracking and a pomodoro timer I do not have to pay for separately. It would be good to have AI auto-scheduling though.

Is there an app like these that works natively with TickTick?

I’m setting up a filter for calls so I can show it on a widget.

Here’s the logic

The item must be tagged “client“

Then

The item must be flagged as one of several call flags (active, intag, outag etc)

OR

The item must be overdue.

The hoped for output is a client who either has a tag or is overdue.

Heres how I have it in the filter

Client AND tag OR overdue

What this gives me is (Client AND tag) OR overdue. So I get every overdue topic whether it is a client or not. What I want is Client AND (tag OR overdue)

I can set up two separate filters - but doing so means I then need two widgets and my widget stack is already full.

If a filter could call other filters then I could set up a meta filter that grabs the two other filters. Sadly I can’t do that either it seems - I can only grab a list.

if I could make tag rules then I could make that work eg a rule that says “if overdue then tag Item “due”“ - but I don’t think there is smart tagging, so no joy there.

Has anyone faced this or have a smart way to work around a problem like this?

Atualmente estou tentando adicionar toda a minha vida no TickTick.

Estudos, Academia, Trabalho, Hábitos, Lembretes, Calendário, Finanças...

O que vocês acham? Como vocês costumam usar?

I want my reminder notifications to buzz once, just like when I received a text message or an email. Instead, they act like an alarm and keep buzzing and buzzing. I'm new to the app, am I missing an obvious setting? It seems like the "constant reminder" setting just reminds you every 5 minutes, that's fine, the part that annoys me is vibrating a dozen times in 30 seconds. I turned off alert mode and that didn't change it either, I'm not really understanding what that's supposed to do

Hi, i have folders that act as a group for projects. Is there any way to have tasks in folders like i can do with Things or Todoist? i cant figure out how to turn that on. Maybe it's not supported? These are great for general areas when i dont want to create another project...

Hello everyone,

I have a question about TickTick Premium.

In the free version, there's a limit of 9 lists. Let's say I subscribe to Premium and create more than 9 lists. What happens if I later cancel my Premium subscription?

Will the lists that exceed the free limit, along with all their content, be locked or deleted? Or do you receive a warning before so you can back up or reorganize your data?

Thanks in advance for your answers!

New user here! Sorry if this is basic af, I have ADHD pretty bad and really struggle with this stuff.

I’ve always heard that “high priority” tasks should be saved for absolutely no more than 3, and preferably 1 task per day, and that medium and low priority could be basically any number. This was always helpful.

But that system just doesn’t work for coursework and I’m really not sure how to prioritize things now? Like let’s say I have a bunch of graded assignments due this week, with four of the six being worth a significant amount of points. Then, there are lectures and readings I need to get through to be able to complete those assignments at all.

It feels like the readings and such are less of a priority because they’re ungraded, but if I really need them to complete the work, are they really?

How would you prioritize this kind of work? I really like Eisenhower matrixes for just picking something to do but I’m overwhelmed. I’d like to get it sorted during the summer semester so I’m set for a busy autumn!

Looking all over the web, in the documentation on TickTick, its nowhere to be found.

Why?

Is this to force people to import from apps to correlate data for telemetry and hoovering up your personal identity?

I really can't think of any other reason. Why make this so fxxking hard?

I assume you can't but it would be nice to be able to choose which buttons are available in the ribbon when editing a task. To get to the date stamp it's too many clicks and buried under formating

Thx

You can display Tasks and Calendar side by side from either direction.

• Right-click the Task tab → Show with Calendar

• Right-click the Calendar tab → Show with Task

Once both panels are open, you can drag tasks directly onto the calendar to schedule them.

I've got a couple due dates that are way out in the future, think 2-15 years. I'd like to get reminded about them, but the maximum reminder I can set seems to be 12 weeks. Is there a way to set reminders early than that?

I was thinking I can create multiple subtasks, so I can use those as reminders. But is there a better approach?

I really miss having a 'back' button to return to the previous page in the Windows version of TickTick. It doesn't need to be anything fancy, just a simple BACK button, similar to the one we have in Chrome. What do you guys think?
