Task Emojis

Visual cues like emojis help your brain process information faster and make task lists more engaging.

The Task Emojis strategy automatically analyzes your task titles and adds relevant emojis at the end based on common keywords. It’s a great way to add a bit of personality to your daily tasks and make them feel less mundane.

How to enable

To enable this strategy, go to ☰ → Features/Strategies → Task Emojis.

How it works

Once enabled, Marvin looks for keywords in your task titles. If it recognizes one, it shows a matching emoji at the end of the title. Your title itself is not changed, so if you turn the feature off, the emojis go away again.
