Digital Habits: To-Do 3.1.5

Linux is in beta. Digital Habits: To-Do now comes for Linux, as an AppImage that updates itself and as a .deb. If the focus window does not stay on top on your desktop, or something else does not work, please tell us in an issue.

On macOS and Windows, get the app from the Mac App Store or the Microsoft Store. The stores keep it up to date.

This update is for Linux.

Tasks & Focus Mode

• [linux] On Hyprland (Omarchy, for one), the app runs on Wayland and is sharp
  on scaled screens. Hyprland floats the focus window and keeps it on top.
• [linux] The focus windows are called "Digital Habits focus 1" and "Digital
  Habits focus 2", so a window rule can find them.

Digital Habits: To-Do 3.1.0

This update comes with some useful new features, design improvements, and under-the-hood improvements.

Tasks & Focus Mode

• A new install starts with one list, To-dos, so you can add a task right away.
• The time on a done task now shows in hours and minutes, like a duration.
• Moving a card in a column sorted by due date or name now keeps the order you
  made, and the column switches to Manual.
• Finishing a task from a focus window keeps the time you spent on it.

Calendar

• A week goal can cover several days and be for more than one person.
• You can make a whole note bold, italic or underlined in one go.
• In the Week view, one click is enough to start writing a note.
• A linked calendar that is asked too often is left alone for a while instead
  of failing.

Integrations

• [macos] A task dropped on a list that follows Apple Reminders now gets its
  reminder.

Fixes & Polish

• A welcome screen greets you on first launch.
• [macos] The app sends an anonymous daily usage count, which you can turn off
  in Settings.
• [windows] The app sends an anonymous daily usage count, which you can turn
  off in Settings.
• Settings now shows the right version number.
• The design of the Settings screen has been improved.
• The design of the Calendar, the Done list and the list tabs has been
  improved.
• Danish translations have been improved.

Internal

• The To-Do page is split into smaller parts, with new tests for tasks, sync,
  drag-and-drop and focus windows.
• Settings reads the version from apps/todo/package.json, so a release bump
  is the only place to change it.

Digital Habits: To-Do v2.9.0

BRANDING

• A proper welcome to Digital Habits. Existing users upgrading from
  ReDD To-Do now get a one-time announcement on first launch explaining
  the new app name and that the Reduce Digital Distraction Project is now
  Centre for Digital Habits (digitalhabits.org).

SETTINGS

• Full-screen Settings on narrower windows. On thinner windows, Settings
  opens as a full-screen sheet with a sticky header (back + title), sticky
  Close footer, and the view switcher / settings gear hidden so you stay in
  Settings until you leave.
• Clearer Settings layout. Feedback and suggestions sit at the top of
  Settings, and Close stays pinned in a sticky footer while you scroll.
• External links open once. Links in Settings (and elsewhere) no longer
  open two browser tabs when clicked.

LISTS & IMPORT

• Import options match what’s connected. When editing a list, Basecamp
  and Apple Reminders import choices only appear if that integration is
  actually connected — unused options stay hidden.

BASECAMP

• More reliable Basecamp sync. Basecamp API requests now identify the
  app correctly, so connect and sync stay stable against Basecamp’s API
  requirements.
• Large number of projects. The project dropdown no longer comes back
  empty or incomplete when you have many projects — it loads the full
  list without tripping Basecamp’s rate limits.
• Smoother list sync. Syncing Basecamp lists (especially ones with
  many sections) paces requests and retries when rate-limited, so sync is
  less likely to fail or miss work.

BY PLATFORM

macOS

• Reminders connect with empty accounts. You can connect Apple
  Reminders even when you don’t have any lists yet, instead of being
  treated as a permission failure.

• Reminders stays responsive. Connecting and syncing Reminders no
  longer freezes the app UI while waiting on EventKit — especially
  noticeable with large iCloud accounts.

• Clearer Reminders messages. Access-denied and empty-list guidance
  after connect is clearer.

• Version: 2.9.0 (macOS and Windows).

Digital Habits To-Do 2.8.0

BRANDING

• Meet Digital Habits: To-Do! Renamed from ReDD To-Do as part of
  the move from the Reduce Digital Distraction (ReDD) Project to
  Centre for Digital Habits (digitalhabits.org).

• Version: 2.8.0 (macOS and Windows).

ReDD To-Do 2.7.9

TASK MENUS

• Smarter task menus. Task option menus open above the ellipsis when they’d
  be cut off by the window edge or sticky footer, and stay readable over the
  add-task bar.

DONE SECTION

• Done chevron. The Done section uses a rotating chevron (right when
  collapsed, down when expanded), with consistent spacing under the add-task
  bar in both states.

• Version: 2.7.9 (macOS and Windows).

ReDD To-Do 2.7.8

• EULA footer: Clearer attribution copy (“We are a not-for-profit…”), no italics, and a slightly smaller font.

• Version: 2.7.8 (macOS and Windows).
