Due Date
The date and time when a task should be completed.
Definition
A due date specifies the deadline for completing a Task. It helps you prioritize work and ensures important tasks don't slip through the cracks.
How It Works
When you set a due date:
- The task appears in the Schedule View
- You can receive notifications/reminders
- The task is organized by date (Past, Today, Soon, Future)
Setting a Due Date
- Open a task
- Tap the due date field
- Select date and time
- Save
Due Date vs Defer Date
| Due Date | Defer Date |
|---|---|
| When task should be done | When task becomes available |
| Shows in schedule | Hidden until defer date |
| Triggers reminders | No reminders until available |
Best Practices
Be Realistic
Set achievable deadlines. Don't over-commit.
Use Time Wisely
- Morning tasks: Set due time to 9:00 AM
- End of day: Set to 9:00 PM (default)
- Specific appointments: Use exact time
Review Regularly
Check overdue tasks daily and reschedule if needed.
