A todo can stand on its own or stay linked to a thought.

Add a todo

Open Todos and use the todo form. You can also accept the actionable suggestion when capturing a thought. Type #tags in the name to attach them. Changing the name updates those tag links, including removing an association when its token is removed. To capture a separate thought from Todos, choose Need to Tuck something away? or use ⌘K on Mac or Ctrl+K on Windows and Linux. Hiding the composer keeps your draft.

Make it repeat

Use Repeat on the todo form or an existing todo. Choose Every day, Every week, Every month, Specific weekdays, Every N…, or Custom. For example, use Custom for every two weeks on Monday and Thursday. Completing a repeating todo schedules its next occurrence. A target such as three times per week belongs in Habits, where Tuck keeps a completion log. Todos do not offer Times per period.

Keep linked work together

A linked todo uses its thought’s brain and follows the thought when you move it. It does not have a separate brain picker. Standalone todos keep their own brain control. When you delete a thought with linked todos, the confirmation lets you also delete those todos. Leave that option unchecked to keep them as standalone todos. Deleting a thought returns you to the list you came from.
