Countdown Tasks

For Countdown Tasks, every day, Task.it will put the days remaining to the deadline.

Sometimes, life gets busy and deadlines sneak up on us.

Countdown Tasks are designed to prevent any deadline from ever again being a surprise.

To make your first Countdown Task easy, we created a quick start below.

Type a task below, give it a due date, and you have set your first Countdown Task!

Watch each day and you will see that Task.it will retitle the task every day indicating the number of days left.


More for the Ambitious :: Keep an Entire Team Informed

If you want to get particularly fancy, you can keep your entire team aware of a deadline. Go to the web UI in task.it, open the “Advanced” settings and add the email address of colleagues. Each day, they too will see an updated meeting invite with the days left.

When Not Using Quick Tasks

Just like usual, you can enter Countdown Tasks in one of two ways:

On the web: At task.it.

Directly in your favorite calendar:

When entering Countdown Tasks directly into your calendar, use the “task.it” Activation Keyword in the Notes section followed by the “Due” or “Deadline” command.

EXAMPLES:

TASK.IT
DUE Monday

TASK.IT
DEADLINE March 24 2021
