In the past six months, our team has been working hard on how to take another step forward. Finally, after numerous reflections, self-confrontations and breakthroughs, it is time to welcome Tick 6.0. Ever since the version of 4.7.0, we began to discover the magic of customization. We launched the “Make Your Own Tab Bar” function and encourage you to customize TickTick according to your own need. This time, we not only go further in the necessary efficiency and practicality as a tool app, but also pay more attention to the personalized experience of users. Custom Appearance Don't like the default tone? Not satisfied with the default theme? Custom appearance can further meet your individual needs! You can upload any beautiful picture you like and set it as background. It will not only be displayed in the side bar, but also be used as the background for list, calendar view, pomo timer, etc., which makes the page style more harmonious. Also, we offer more icons of different styles for you to choose from. Brand-new UI Following the GTD concept, TickTick 6.0 is designed to help you get more things done and take your productivity to the next level. Different from the

As 2020 has officially come to the end, some may have already engaged themselves in re-evaluation on things completed and changes made throughout the year. Looking back to last year’s resolution and seeing what has been ticked off is always a good way to do that, so is listing what you did well and what you didn’t. To help you do that, 2020 TickTick Memory is ready! You’re not only able to quickly generate your TickTick 2020 year-in-review but can also write down your 2021 new year's resolutions at the same time in the list we create for you!  Your 2020 TickTick Memory Generally, there are 3 parts in the review, regarding Task completion, Focus, and Habit tracking data respectively. Some of the most curious questions will be covered, such as: How many tasks have I completed this year? How long have I been focused on my tasks? What time in a day is my most productive hour? What is the habit that I insisted on for the longest time? More surprisingly, apart from the review itself, another handy feature we’ve added in the review is a 2021 resolution list! You can write down your 2021 new year's resolutions immediately

Approaching the end of 2020, we can’t wait to walk you through a complete TickTick feature review: what features have been newly added, what major improvements have been made, as well as what integrations and projects were introduced. Read through the full review of features coming to TickTick this year, and pick up things you’ve missed along the way!  Section 1: New features Break down a complex task with Task Nesting One of the biggest new features introduced in TickTick this year is Task Nesting (Subtask). Beforehand, there were only Check Items within the task, which could be checked off and set reminders to. Yet, it couldn't perform other functions like a complete task. We brought the whole Task Nesting into your to-do lists! (Please note Check Items are still available in the task description for basic listing). Task Nesting (Subtask) allows you to cut a huge task into smaller chunk and chucks into slices if you’d like (5 levels supported for subtasks). Each subtask is empowered with the functionality that a task has: setting due dates, priority or tags, or assigning to others. Breaking down a task into more manageable and actionable ones is a great way to help

You may have been a TickTick veteran for many years already, knowing a lot of tricks that suit your workflow best. Or, maybe you just got started today. No matter whether you’re in the know of how powerful TickTick can be to help you stay organized, focused, and productive, this article will level up your TickTick knowledge for sure! Read on to learn something new!  Section 1: Task & List Add tasks all over the list with the draggable "+" button (mobile) Some may have well recognized the Quick Add Button "+", which usually stays on the left or right bottom corner of your list, but what you may not be familiar with is that "+" can move all over your list! Once you drag the “+” and drop it somewhere, a task will be added straight to the bull's eye. For example, if "+" is dropped under a subtask, you’ll be taken to create a new subtask.  To make this happen, simply short press on the "+" > release it anywhere you'd like your task to be added > create a task and it will go into the targeted area (example below)!  Quickly arrange Today’s tasks with “Plan Your

Long extending itself beyond a simple to-do app, TickTick offers an all-in-one productivity solution packed with features like to-do lists, Pomo, Habit, Kanban, Note, and more importantly, TickTick Calendar! It is not very common for a to-do app to have one, but it is always useful if it does! TickTick is such an app that combines your to-do lists with a built-in calendar in a single place, empowering you to get more out of your time and manage your tasks well. Planning helps in actual doing. With TickTick Calendar, you can always plan out your day and time block your tasks in advance (Learn more on Time Blocking). This allows you to be more conscious of how you’ll spend your time and get more concentrated on what’s important in your schedule. One can thus be more productive and organized in life. Before we dive into Calendar specifically, creating a to-do list is the first step. Write down tasks you need to do, no matter if it is related to your work responsibilities, social events, business meetings, or day-to-day activities. All tasks, if created with a specific date, will automatically be integrated and appear on your TickTick Calendar. Then let’s explore

An often heard theory of habit-building is the “21/90” rule. 21 days for a habit to form (0-1), and another 90 days for that habit to stick (1-100). Apart from these two key stages, the initial decision to commit to a new habit is also important.  Deciding to commit to a positive change A ritual of starting Before jumping into a new habit, a good way to get yourself mentally ready is a ritual of starting. Telling yourself and maybe also people around you that you’d like to make a certain change, is establishing an invisible “flag”. It’ll not only psychologically remind yourself, but others can also play the role of a supervisor if needed.  A reason behind the change It is essential while always neglectful to identify what drives you to make the change and where your initial motivation comes from. It seems determined that your habit won’t last for long if the reason behind it is self-punishment. This means that an intrinsic motivation of establishing a habit should develop from what you love, instead of hate. A clear goal and steps to reach it  Once you’ve committed, it’s important to set a clear goal and detailed plans. The

Before the end of October, have a quick look at what has recently been ticked in TickTick and tell us what you’re also expecting! 🙋‍♂️🙋‍♀️ Note Is Going Live! Note is a new feature introduced into TickTick not so long ago. Have you been happy so far using it for simpler note-taking? Let’s quickly go over its functionality! What Is the “Note” Feature for? From our last discussion, Note was added mainly due to two purposes:  To provide you with a separate room for simple note-keeping at TickTick, where you can record any ideas and thoughts anytime during performing daily tasks. Without the need of switching to other apps, you can simply write it down and save it there in just one place.  To function as an additional resource for your task management. For example, if you’d like to include some context information (background info, additional learning resources, references, tips) of your to-do lists/ tasks, Note can serve this purpose well.  How to Access the Note? Some may already find it a bit tricky to access Note for the first time. This is true to some extent because we did not wish Note to get in the way of task

What is Note? Long extending itself as just a task manager, TickTick now has a separate note-taking area! Available across all devices, it can provide you with a fluent experience of note taking on iPad, mobile phones, Mac or Windows! Note is a new and free feature introduced to simplify your note-taking process at TickTick. The confusion may immediately rise between some of you who’ve already been used to having task descriptions for this purpose. Indeed, descriptions could be used for keeping some simple notes of the task. However, limitations were quite obvious too: For one thing, it doesn’t look like a note but still a task associated with your schedule, priority, and arrangement; for another, once the task is completed, the description within it will also be gone. Thus, to provide you with a more intuitive note-taking process, and an individual space to save notes for you to look back at any time, here comes the Note! How to access Note? To add a Note To add a Note, you need to first add a Note-type list (There are two types of list now: Note and Task). Accessing from “Add List” at the bottom of the left sidebar >
