What is Reddit's opinion of OpenTasks?

From 3.5 billion Reddit comments

I've tried Jarvis on and off for a few months. Since you added the ability to add reminders to the Timeline, it's replaced Note to Self in my "up" Quick Launch slot. Since reminders are my most frequent use-case, I have a few tweaks to suggest. I'd like the Timeline pin shortTitle to be the text of the reminder (instead of "Jarvis Reminder"). I also like the behaviour N2S uses when an item is accepted (two short vibrations, then exit to the watchface) -- it's good to have explicit confirmation that the pin was pushed. I'd prefer Jarvis to auto-exit shortly after any function like this (creating a reminder, alarm, calendar entry).

Also, when manually backing out, it ends up in the apps list, even when activated via Quick Launch. It should go to the active watchface.

Some possible additions:

• Add travel time estimates via walking and biking, not just driving.
• Add "How many steps [or how far] have I I walked today?"
• Start Stopwatch (if installed)
• Add a task to a to-do list. (I'd love if you could make it possible to select the to-do app, the way you permit choosing calendars and music apps. I use Marten Gadja's OpenTasks.)
• Launch Google voice search/OK Google on the phone (even listening from a pants pocket, it still works pretty well!).
• Call [contact name] at [home|work|mobile] (and set speakerphone on).
• Take a picture via phone camera?

FYI, I've gotten error code T1 a number of times on navigation/travel time requests. Not sure what the problem likely is.

Finally, thanks for all your work on this project so far! It's been fun to try out, and I'm really impressed at how many Wear functions you've managed to successfully replicate. I'd like to be able to purchase a license via Google Play by way of support! (Not inclined to use Patreon.)

OpenTasks for Android is good enough for me. Together with davdroid (available on fdroid) you can get nextcloud syncing. I didn't have the need for any web clients yet, so I'm not sure if there are any good ones.

A tasks list app that utilizes open standards (e.g. caldav)-- for an example on the Android side, see Marten Gajda's open source OpenTasks.

I guess it's worth checking the opentasks app

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.dmfs.tasks

it automatically sets the completion date/time of the task (when you mark it as done) and you can filter these tasks (show completed). Furthermore it gives you the ability to have percent completed (ie half or 50% completed) tasks whixgh you can also filter in app.

open tasks if you are concerned about your privacy. It keeps your tasks local in your phone.

PS: It can also sync multiple devices if you have an owncloud or nextcloud server.

Looks nice! I'd never heard of TaskWarrior before. Do you use it solo, or share data with others? My wife and I share multiple to-do lists and calendars via a caldav server (radicale, running on my home Debian box). This works pretty well across our clients (my Linux desktop, her MacBook, our Android handsets), but without any native Pebble support. It's been my plan to write a Pebble front end (most likely interfacing with Marten Gajda's OpenTasks, which we use on our phones), but I never find enough spare time to do it.

I like OpenTasks which is on both F-Droid and the Play Store

I'm not a Real Developer, just an occasional coder, so I can't offer you help with this. But my plan^* has been to write a Pebble interface to my caldav server's tasks list, which already syncs between my desktop and my Android phone (via Martin Gajda's open-source app), so I get watch notifications of tasks due, and allows my wife and I to share shopping lists and calendars.

Google Keep has some really appealing features, but its lack of an API and the company's history of suddenly abandoning projects always makes me leery of leaning on them. At least the Google Data Liberation Front supports exporting Keep notes via Google Takeout.

It's also on FDroid if you would rather grab it from there.

Could also consider learning/using Todo.txt format with a program like this one.

Or for the ultimate, maybe something like this.

Is this what you want?

I use it with self-hosted DAV stuff on my radicale server.

Yeah, but a Wordpress theme is something very different from a desktop or mobile app. Have any desktop or mobile app developer read your post and they'll tell you what I told you, which is basically what /u/iBleedWhenIpoop wrote.

Writing an app which you can fully customize in the way you ask is so hard that it's better to write/edit the source code directly. An "infinitely customizable app" is basically an open source app. There's no point in writing an app that includes code do tweak itself to the core. Just edit the source code.

Now let me try to sound less harsh and offer some next actions.

1. Find an open source app that's closest to what you want your finished product to look like. For example, OpenTasks for android, TaskCoach, or something else.

2. tweak the source code to your liking, or have someone else do it for you.

3. profit
