The Task Hints strategy helps guide your thought process when creating new tasks, projects, categories, or events. By enabling this feature (☰ → Features/Strategies → Task Hints), you can set up hints to ensure that important steps aren’t missed during task creation, such as adding labels, subtasks, or duration estimates.
This strategy is ideal for users who follow the GTD (Getting Things Done) methodology or any workflow that requires a specific checklist when creating new tasks.
