The difference is that tasks related to the project live in Todoist, while reference notes related to the project live in Evernote. I can also copy the URLs from either a Todoist task and put it into an Evernote note related to said task or copy the URL from the note from Evernote and place into a Todoist.

Dates in Todoist can sometimes be a bit confusing. Here you will find a complete overview of the date formats and the ways of using dates in Todoist.

Note: I recommend to bookmark this post so that you can easily find it when you are struggling with dates in Todoist.

1. Give Section a Title You should see an entry like the one above at the bottom of your project task list. Give your new section a title by typing it into the text box as shown above and click the “ Add Section ” button so save your new section to your project in Todoist. Your new section should now appear inside your project as shown above.
2. If you have premium, you can add a comment to the task If you don't have premium, you may be able to work around it by going into the task then, in one of the subtasks, start your note with. + space to remove the checkbox. Hope that helps!
3. Using OneNote with Todoist. OneNote is a note-taking app that helps you organize your notes and files, as well as to collaborate with others. By connecting OneNote with Todoist, you can set up a variety of automated actions, such as turning your notes into tasks, your tasks into notes, logging completed tasks as notes in OneNote, and much more.
4. Make sure that you take action on your new OneNote notes by adding them to your task list. Use this Zap to automatically create Todoist tasks from new OneNote notes. Whether your notes contain handwritten to-dos or a bullet list of reminders, get those tasks into one place, so you can complete them. How this OneNote-Todoist integration works.

How to set dates in Todoist

You can set dates in Todoist using the calendar/date selector, or by using natural language.

Todoist will automatically recognize and add due dates as you type them into a task name. This feature is called Smart date recognition. You can turn this feature on or off by going to Settings / General / Smart date recognition.

Disabling Smart date recognition for a single task

Sometimes, Todoist’s Smart date recognition can be a source of irritation. Let’s say the task is “Finish monthly expense report” By the time you type “Finish mon” Todoist will have interpreted this as a task named “Finish” that is due on Monday. To avoid this, press backspace or delete on your keyboard, or tap the highlighted word on your phone or tablet.

Recurring due dates in Todoist

Todoist Onenote Integration

The only way to set recurring due dates in Todoist is by using natural language. I’m tempted to say that your imagination is the limit but to make it easy to get started, I have made some tables below.

Relative numbers

The use of ! (exclamation mark)

Thanks to the tip from Keith in the comment section, I can list a very useful function that was unknown to me: The format Every! will calculate the next occurrence from when you complete the task. Meaning that if you complete the task later than on the first due date, the next occurrence will be calculated from when you completed the previous task.

Setting start dates for non-recurring tasks in Todoist

Start dates for non-recurring tasks are actually not supported in Todoist. The dates above are all due dates. You have three options to get around this:

1. Register the start date as the due date. When the task shows up, use the every day until <due date> to make the task repeat until the desired due date.
2. Register the task with due date every day from <start date> to <due date> .
3. Register the task with a due date and set a reminder for the start date.
