Todoist

24.01.26. Todoist now lets you create tasks with your voice



Todoist app now lets you add tasks using voice. The new feature is called Todoist Ramble. You simply tap a button and describe new task (or tasks) out loud in natural language and Ramble turns your rambling into organized tasks. The app will record the details you mention, such as project due dates, priorities, duration and assignees. For example, you can say phrases like, "Actually, let's do it by Thursday" or "That's it," to guide the AI ​​as you speak. This is handy if you need to take a note or assign a task while on the go and typing on the go is difficult. Ramble is built on Google Gemini and Vertex AI, a real-time spoken language understanding engine. The audio is not stored or used for AI training and the app is SOC2 Type II certified, according to Doist.


2014. ToDoist arrives on Android Wear smartwatches


ToDoist is shrinking down its popular to-do app to fit on a smaller screen on Android Wear watches. ToDoist for Android Wear support is now included in the free app. Once installed on an Android Wear watch and wirelessly sync with a phone or tablet, ToDoist can be used to create tasks through voice commands by saying  “OK Google, start Todoist. Add task.” These tasks will sync over to your connected Android phone and be added to your task list. Since ToDoist also synchs data through the cloud, any tasks added from the watch will be available through ToDoist on the web, other Android devices, Apple iOS, Microsoft Windows, Mac, Chrome and other supported platforms. ToDoist also includes location-based notifications for tasks. Your watch might vibrate, for example, if you have a task to pick up milk and you’re nearing the supermarket.
