Tasks & Reminders

LockYit includes a built-in task management system to keep track of to-dos and set reminders.

Task Lists​

Tasks in LockYit are organized into Task Lists - collections of related tasks.

Creating a Task List​

  1. Go to Tasks screen
  2. Tap + Task List
  3. Enter a name (e.g., "Home Renovation" or "Work Projects")

Viewing Task Lists​

All your task lists appear in the Tasks section. A task list can be selected to see the different tasks in that list.

Each task list shows.

  • List of tasks which are to-do items
  • Status of each task
    • To Do
    • In Progress
    • Done
  • Completion date if the task is completed

Task Views​

LockYit offers multiple ways to view your tasks.

List View​

Traditional vertical list of tasks. Best for focusing on one list.

Timeline View​

Shows tasks organized by due date. Great for seeing what's coming up.

Kanban View​

Visual board with columns for each status:

  • To Do - Not started
  • In Progress - Currently working on
  • Done - Completed

You can drag tasks between columns to update their status.

View Persistence

LockYit remembers your last selected view (List, Timeline, Kanban) and filter preference, so you can pick up exactly where you left off.

Setting Reminders​

Never miss a deadline by setting reminders for your tasks.

  1. Open a task
  2. Tap Reminder
  3. Choose a date and time when to be reminded.
  4. Save the task

You'll receive a notification inside the LockYit app before the due date. These notifications can be seen by clicking on the notifications_active Reminders button in the Home screen.

How early you want the reminders to be shown, can be set in Settings -> Appearance using the Advance Reminders and the Days Ahead option.

Completing Tasks​

Mark tasks as complete in one of the following ways.

  • Tap the checkbox next to the task name
  • Open the task and change Status to Done

Completed tasks appear with a strikethrough.
