Locodo today view with tasks and priorities

Locodo is built to get out of your way. There's no sign-up, no setup wizard, and no cloud to configure — download it, open it, and you're ready. Here's everything you need for your first few minutes.

1. Add your first task

Tap the blue + button and just start typing. Locodo understands plain English, so you can write the whole thing in one line:

As you type, Locodo highlights the date, time and repeat it detected and fills them in for you — no fiddling with pickers. Prefer to speak? Tap the microphone and dictate; it happens on your device.

2. Complete, edit and delete

On the task list, swipe right to mark a task done and swipe left to delete it. Tap any task to open it and add notes, a due date, a reminder, a priority, sub-tasks or tags. Made a mistake? Deleted tasks go to Recently Deleted (Settings), so you can restore them for up to 7 days.

💡 Tip: You don't have to fill in everything. A title alone is a perfectly good task — add details only when they help.

3. Find your way around

The tabs at the bottom are your home base:

4. Plan your day

Tap the calendar icon on the Tasks screen to open the Agenda — every dated task laid out day by day, alongside your calendar events. It's the fastest way to see what's actually coming up.

That's the whole basics. Next, learn how to make sure nothing slips through the cracks in Reminders & recurring tasks →
