How to work with subtasks
With Todo it’s easy to split your big task into small, manageable chunks, using subtasks.
-
Let’s “✏️ Edit” the task
-
Click the “➖ Subtasks” button
-
You will see the new text input appear in the task form modal. As described in the placeholder - one line = one subtask.
-
Let’s create 3 subtasks, one for each week’s report to be checked. Click “Submit”
-
You can see the subtasks have appeared along with the task. Let’s check one checkbox off
-
You can see the subtask is now completed
-
Task watchers have received a notification
-
If we were to click on the subtask again, that will mark the subtask as not completed
-
And trigger another notification message to task watchers
-
All these actions were also recorded as activities
Recurring tasks
