Step-by-step guide to creating tasks:

1. Click the "Add Task" or "+" button (usually at the top or bottom of your task list)
2. Enter a task title (required) - be specific about what needs to be done
3. Add a description (optional) - include additional details, notes, or context
4. Select a priority level: High, Medium, or Low
5. Choose a category to organize your task (Work, Personal, Shopping, etc.)
6. Set a due date using the calendar picker if the task has a deadline
7. Click "Save" or "Add Task" to add it to your list

Your task will immediately appear in your task list and be automatically saved.

Priority levels help you organize tasks by importance and urgency:

• High Priority (Red): Urgent and important tasks that need immediate attention. Use for deadlines, critical work, or time-sensitive items.
• Medium Priority (Yellow): Important tasks that should be done soon but aren't urgent. Good for regular work tasks and planned activities.
• Low Priority (Green): Tasks that can wait or are nice to do but not critical. Use for future plans, optional items, or low-stakes tasks.

Tips for using priorities:

• Filter your task list by priority to focus on what matters most
• Start each day by tackling high priority tasks first
• Don't make everything high priority - be strategic
• Review and adjust priorities regularly as situations change

To mark a task as completed, simply click the checkbox next to the task title. The task will be:

• Marked with a checkmark
• Usually shown with strikethrough text
• Moved to the completed section (depending on your filter settings)
• Included in your productivity statistics

You can uncheck the task if you need to mark it as incomplete again. View all completed tasks by filtering your list to show only completed items.

Yes! You have full control over your tasks:

To Edit a Task:

• Click the edit icon (usually a pencil) next to the task
• Modify any field: title, description, priority, category, or due date
• Click "Save" to update the task
• Changes are saved immediately

To Delete a Task:

• Click the delete icon (usually a trash can) next to the task
• Confirm the deletion when prompted
• The task will be permanently removed

Note: Deleted tasks cannot be recovered, so make sure you want to delete before confirming.

Use the search box to find tasks quickly:

1. Locate the search box (usually at the top of your task list)
2. Type keywords from the task title or description
3. The search function filters your task list in real-time
4. Only tasks matching your search terms will be displayed
5. Clear the search box to see all tasks again

Search tips:

• Search works on both task titles and descriptions
• Use specific keywords for better results
• Combine search with filters for more precise results

Categories help you organize tasks by type or area of life. Think of them as folders or labels for your tasks.

Common category examples:

• Work: Professional tasks, projects, meetings
• Personal: Personal errands, goals, hobbies
• Shopping: Grocery lists, purchases to make
• Health: Exercise, medical appointments, wellness
• Home: Household chores, maintenance, repairs
• Finance: Bills to pay, budget tasks
• Learning: Courses, reading, skill development

How to use categories:

• Assign a category when creating or editing a task
• Filter your task list to show only one category
• See at a glance how many tasks are in each area of your life
• Create custom categories that match your needs

Use the filter dropdown or buttons to view tasks by status:

• All Tasks: Shows every task regardless of completion status
• Pending/Active: Shows only tasks that haven't been completed yet
• Completed: Shows only tasks you've finished

This helps you focus on what needs to be done or review what you've accomplished. You can also combine status filters with priority and category filters for more specific views.

When you set a due date for a task, Task ToDo helps you stay on track:

• Visual indicators: Tasks are color-coded based on their due date status
• Overdue tasks: Tasks past their due date are highlighted (usually in red)
• Upcoming deadlines: Tasks due soon may be shown in yellow or orange
• Task sorting: Sort tasks by due date to see what's coming up

The app doesn't send push notifications or email reminders since it's browser-based, but the visual cues help you identify which tasks need immediate attention.

Yes! All tasks are automatically saved to your browser's local storage. Every change you make is immediately saved, including:

• Creating new tasks
• Editing existing tasks
• Marking tasks as complete or incomplete
• Deleting tasks
• Changing priorities or categories

You never need to manually save - it happens automatically in the background. Your tasks will remain even if you close the browser or turn off your device.

Your data is completely private and secure:

• Local storage only: All tasks are stored in your browser's local storage
• No cloud upload: Your data never leaves your device
• No server access: We cannot see, access, or collect your tasks
• No third parties: Your data is not shared with anyone
• No tracking: We don't track your activity or behavior

This "local-first" approach ensures complete privacy. Your tasks are as secure as your device - only you have access to them.

Since tasks are stored locally in your browser, they are device-specific. This means:

• Tasks created on your laptop won't appear on your phone
• Tasks created in Chrome won't appear in Firefox (on the same device)
• Each browser on each device maintains its own separate task list

Workaround: If you need access across devices, you can:

• Use the export feature (if available) to transfer tasks
• Use primarily one device for task management
• Keep the app open in a browser tab on your main device

The trade-off for this limitation is complete privacy and no need for accounts or cloud sync.

Important: If you clear your browser's local storage or site data, your tasks will be deleted.

To protect your tasks:

• Don't clear browsing data for the Task ToDo site
• When clearing browser data, uncheck "Cookies and site data" option
• Or exclude specific sites from being cleared
• Export your tasks regularly as a backup (if feature available)

Note: Clearing browser history or cache alone won't delete tasks - only clearing "site data" or "local storage" will remove them.

Backing up your tasks is important to prevent data loss:

Method 1 - Export Feature (if available):

• Look for an "Export" button in settings or menu
• Export to CSV, JSON, or text file
• Save the file to your computer or cloud storage
• Import it later if needed to restore tasks

Method 2 - Manual Screenshot:

• Take screenshots of your task list
• Useful for quick visual reference
• Not ideal for restoration but better than nothing

Best practice: Export your tasks monthly or after adding many important tasks.

Since tasks are stored locally, there's no built-in real-time sharing feature. However:

Sharing options:

• Export your tasks and share the exported file via email or messaging
• Take screenshots of specific tasks to share visually
• Copy and paste task details into an email or document
• Share your screen during video calls to show your task list

For team collaboration, you might want to use dedicated team task management tools that offer real-time synchronization.

You can create unlimited tasks. There is no restriction on the number of tasks you can add to your list.

Technical note: Browser storage limits (typically 5-10MB per site) may apply, but this is sufficient for:

• Thousands of simple tasks
• Hundreds of detailed tasks with long descriptions
• Years of task history

Most users will never reach this limit. If you do, consider archiving or deleting old completed tasks.

Once the app is loaded, it may work offline depending on your browser's caching:

• First time: You need internet to initially load the app
• After loading: The app may be cached and work without internet
• Your tasks: Are stored locally, so you can always view and edit them
• Limitation: You'll need internet to load the app again if you clear cache

Even without internet, your tasks remain accessible since they're stored on your device.

Yes! Task ToDo works perfectly on all tablets including:

• iPads: All models, all iOS versions
• Android Tablets: Samsung Galaxy Tab, Lenovo, etc.
• Windows Tablets: Surface and other Windows devices

The responsive design automatically adjusts to your tablet's screen size, providing an optimal experience whether you're using it in portrait or landscape mode.

The export feature may vary by version. Check your app's settings or menu for export options.

Common export formats:

• CSV: Opens in Excel, Google Sheets, or any spreadsheet software
• JSON: Technical format for importing into other apps
• Text file: Simple text format for general use

If you don't see an export option, you can manually copy your tasks or take screenshots as a backup.

The app comes with a professional purple gradient theme designed for readability and aesthetics.

Customization options (if available):

• Check settings menu for theme options
• Look for dark mode toggle
• Some versions may offer color scheme choices
• Font size adjustments may be available

If customization isn't available in your version, the default theme is designed to work well in all lighting conditions and be easy on the eyes for extended use.

Best for:

• Personal productivity and life organization
• Students tracking assignments and projects

Not ideal for:

• Real-time team collaboration
• Assigning tasks to team members
