How to use end dates

Think of end dates as soft deadlines or artificial due dates. 

Some things in life have a fixed deadline with some immediate consequences (e.g. filing taxes, cancel a subscription, exams, assignments etc.).

But there are also other things we just like to have completed by a certain date. Instead of using due dates for both, use end dates for any self-imposed deadlines. 

How to add end dates

When creating task or project or editing the title of an item, write "ends "  or "=" followed by the date to add an end date:

  • "Write Jane ends 20.1.2019"

  • "Finish blog post ends in a week"

  • "Finish blog post =10d"

Alternatively, click the edit icon on the right of the item and pick your end date from the calendar.
