I literally have little other use for Proton Calendar without this feature. Also it would be cool if the color of the day could be customized if the tasks are completed (or not). For example, task: do 10 pull-ups from date x to date y, and if completed it adds a green dot when the task is checked off. Something like that. So I could do something like the idea of 'don't break the chain' for changing/improving habits.

A must!

Over 9 years and still waiting.

Proton also promised in a November 2022 blog post this "key" feature was coming soon and then promptly ignored it to launch new products.

Whether it's in the form of Google Tasks (calendar-based) or MS Outlooks Flags (email-based), this has been an obvious ask for almost a decade now.

I know they claim each product has its own team, but the glacial pace of development suggests otherwise. Like what's even the point of having a user voice portal when you're just gonna ignore the user's voice?

I agree with Blah, tasks and Calendar Events serve two different purposes.

Proton Tasks with ToDoist functionality would add major value to the proton suite. Task databases are equally if not more important than calendars for privacy and security.

Competing with ToDoist is quite a challenge though, but seeing Proton Pass develop, I believe it is possible.

I am a 'Newbe' and a senior and an average user of email, calendars, and to do list. I also favor a Proton task & to do list. I have been a “temporary” user of Yahoo mail for some time and am really done with these browser-based emails. I did a thorough comparison of the various email programs and decided Proton was the best of the lot even though it did not include a to do list.

I hope Proton keeps in mind while designing this product, it needs to create the product that appeals to both the average user and the power user.

So can anyone tell me what the status of Proton’s efforts to bring us this improvement?

For me, Google's task feature is invaluable, as if I do not mark a task complete, it stays in my current day pane until I mark it complete. This means if I don't do a task at the appointed time and date, it stays visible every day until I do. With Proton, an item not completed slides into the past and gets forgotten. Tasks is the only reason I continue to use Google.

This is VERY important for me. If we get this this will satisfy all my needs.

This is basically the only thing that keeps me from using Proton Calendar

Tasks and Calendar Events serve two different purposes. An Even is a commitment whereas tasks can be long-standing and can be independent from event or time of day.

If Proton takes up the task management scene, I would like Proton to have a standalone application for Tasks to compete with Todoist. I currently use Things 3 and deeply appreciate an app dedicated to being the best at doing one thing: project management.

Having Tasks inside a Calendar app just adds to bloat. What I like from apps like Things 3 is that I see my tasks (the main focus of the app), and then at the top it integrates with my calendar to show just the events throughout that day. You can't add events from the task manager app, and that's fine. I don't expect my Task Manager app to also be my event manager.

To add to this, having a standalone application for Task management means that we can have an app that is focussed on project management, dedicated UI for showcasing tasks appropriately, separating dates to complete something vs. the date that it's due. You can get a much more focussed experience when you have a dedicated app for tasks.

I'd find something like Todoist much more useful than, say, Google Keep and Tasks. It's not worth building unless you build out the full product, because, at least for me, I centralize all my tasks into a more powerful platform.

If this ever gets created, I hope it feels like Todoist because I love this app. Also, an Easy Switch like feature would be really nice.

It's a very important feature for me too - and the only reason for not switching from Google. Hope it will be added soon.
Thank you very much.

I don't like using Google for this feature and Proton for everything else.

This is only reason why I don't use proton at all.

Add a Proton task or to do list with due date similar to Google

Please add a ( synced web / mobile ) reminders / task list section. If they could be integrated with the calendar ( eg due dates or ETAs / time frames / importance / urgency ) that would be awesome.

Also would be great to be able to share them with other proton mail users.

Having this feature inside of proton Calendar would be really nice !

To be honest: I will not continue to use proton (having tested it for a few weeks now) only because of this. I do not understand, how you can concentrate expanding your product suite with VPN and Pass (next to many good alternatives) while not creating a todo-app and perfecting the mail-calendar-todo-combination on all devices.

I would suggest taking Google Tasks as a model with the "all-lists-on-one-board"-style. There should be labels too (in addition to categories = lists). And there should be a function to be reminded on a specific date.

If I get an E-Mail, I should be able to make a task or a calendar entry with one click (maybe a few more but only in cases I do not what e.g. the standard-todo-category set by myself prior).

EDIT: Task should be a different "program", as should be the calendar. I should be able to open calendar, task and mail at the same time (on three screens or a screen divided). Tasks is not just a feature of a calendar!

Tasks, Reoccurring tasks, last/first day of the month tasks, and an outstanding tasks pane is absolutely needed.
