I wonder if this will still work after the change kicks in:

(When you get to the page, click the "Get the Action for Google Assistant" button.)
It does work on my Google Home now. Granted, it's not nearly as convenient as the IFTTT applets some of us had set up.
Oh wow, Toodledo was the first cloud-based task app I seriously used. I loved Todoist's efficient web interface, but their Android app was lacking. I read that they're investing in modernizing their service, though?
One of the main reasons I've kept RTM is their web interface. It's light and quick, and offline access - try one of their desktop OS apps - is solid. Like Toodledo, RTM lets you set task lengths (as estimates). It's nice to be able to search for all your tasks that'll take less than five minutes when you have time to kill. ;)
Wow, never knew about the stopwatch!
You've just reminded me to check out the RTM forums - I found an Idea that someone posted for a timer years ago.
