Managing Overdue Tasks
What is it?
Any.do helps users stay on top of all of their to-do’s. However, if a task has not been completed and has passed its reminder‘s due date, it will be considered as an ‘Overdue task’. No worries though! These tasks can be easily re-planned, ensuring that all of your missions are accomplished!
Who has access?
- Both Premium and Free users can take advantage of this feature!
- The feature is available on Android, iOS, Web, Windows and Mac.
How does it work?
- Tasks with an assigned Reminder will progress from “Upcoming” to “Tomorrow”, and eventually to “Today” when their due date has arrived.
- If a task has not been completed on its due date, it will become an “Overdue task”.
- Overdue tasks can be found on both the Tasks and the Calendar Views.
- Overdue tasks can be re-scheduled using Any.do Moment on mobile, or by simply editing the reminder straight from the Task Menu.
