The things is, I would love to use something like Tick Tick, but open source and end to end encrypted. That would be way out of scope for Calendar, and I wouldn't even use a calendar to-do feature. That is, unless it was fully featured so I could use manage all my tasks and projects in one place. Some things like this aren't worth developing and maintaining unless it can be a truly competitive product.

Agreed, one can technically not call itself a "Suite" unless you have a Tasks/Reminders and a Notes app.

Yes, I'm aware of Documents within Proton Drive, but that doesn't count.

This feature would be very useful, but please make sure there are widgets for both Android and iOS at release or it will not be really usable.

Once again, PLEASE make this a feature ASAP. I have been a paying customer for years and am still waiting. Can we at least have an update on the ETA for this?

I fully support Proton's mission. Being able to use Proton Tasks instead of iOS Reminders would absolutely rock!

Please prioritize this feature! There are literally no good, easy-to-use, and privacy friendly alternatives out there. At least if you need cross-platform and collaboration support. I've looked into all alternatives including tried hosting a few self-hosted ones. If Proton adds this feature I would immediately buy a Family plan and migrate my family to Proton.

Pleeeease do this.

I'm very interested in seeing this feature!

This would be extremely useful to me as I use Proton Calendar for all my to do lists.

I'd love to have a Task/ to-do app that integrates into the Calendar app as task feature. Similarly, Google Tasks integrates with the calendar.

Needs to happen.

Yes please, tasks/to-do lists (currently using Quire)

To do list is as important as calendar. Actually it is easier to use

A dumb idea just came to my mind.
Maybe if it was possible to create an event with no specified time (just a date), that would actually make that event a task?
Maybe if it was possible to create an event with no specified time nor date, that would actually make that event a note?
That way one could keep all kinds of 'reminder' type of things in a single app, which might be pretty convenient.
Is that even possible from coding perspective?

This is an absolute MUST for me. My current workflow heavily relies on gcal utilizing both the traditional calendar aspects as well as the integrated tasks feature. Similar to how Google Tasks integrates into the calendar, it would be a big help to have to-do-list functionality baked into the calendar app as an intermediate step on the way to a fully fledged out calendar app (Like Todoist).

This is very important to me, I cannot have a calendar without a to-do list

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?

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.
