Voice inputProElite

Add tasks easily and quickly in the mobile app by simply dictating them. This feature is especially handy when your hands are busy or you need to capture a thought on the go.

Voice Input supports recognition of task parameters: date and time, project, tags, priority, and reminder.

What Parameters You Can Dictate

Voice Input recognizes the task title and its parameters:

  • date and time;
  • project;
  • tags;
  • priority;
  • reminder.

For example, if you dictate “Team call tomorrow at 3:00 PM in project Work with tag standup high priority remind in 30 minutes”, the app will recognize everything at once: the title, date, time, project, tag, priority, and reminder.

Important! Projects and tags are recognized only if they already exist in the app. New projects and tags are not created.

You can dictate several tags at once — just list them one after another. For example: “Team call tomorrow at 3:00 PM with tags retrospective standup useful” → a task with three tags: “Retrospective”, “Standup”, “Useful”.

Additional commands are also available:

  • “to inbox” — the task goes to the Inbox with no project, date, or reminders;
  • “someday” — the task will be marked as postponed;
  • “no reminder” or “don’t remind” — no reminder will be set.

How to Create a Task by Voice

  1. Press and hold the plus icon (+) in the bottom right corner of the screen.
  2. The first time you use the feature, the app will ask for permission to access the microphone. Grant it.
  3. A speech recognition window will appear. Say the task title — the system will automatically recognize your speech and create the task.

The Recording Screen

Say the task in natural language — for example: “Team call tomorrow at 3:00 PM in project Work with tag standup high priority remind in 30 minutes”.

During recognition, the prompt “Speak...” is displayed in the center of the screen. Once the app starts recognizing your speech, the prompt is replaced with the recognized text. An animated wave that reacts to your voice appears below.

You can swipe left to cancel voice task creation.

If the app can’t recognize your words, the screen will close after 5 seconds. A message will appear saying “We didn’t hear you :(”.

What Happens After Recognition

After recognition, the result screen opens. At the top, you’ll see the Recognized block containing your text — the parameters inside it are highlighted.

Below is the task title and the recognized parameters. By default, parameters are removed from the title — only the part that wasn’t a parameter remains.

For example, from “Team call tomorrow at 3:00 PM in project Work with tag standup high priority remind in 30 minutes”, the title will keep only “Team call”, and everything else will be saved as task parameters. You can manage recognition behavior in the settings. See the “Voice Input Settings” section below for details.

If you don’t tap anything, the task will be saved automatically after 5 seconds — the progress is shown on the checkmark button in the bottom right corner. The “Tap to stay” hint means you can tap anywhere on the empty area of the screen to stop the auto-save and remain on the recognition screen.

What You Can Do on the Result Screen

On the result screen you can:

  • tap the cross next to a parameter — only that parameter will be removed;
  • tap the card with the recognized task or any parameter name — the detailed task page will open for editing, and all parameters will already be filled in from the recognized values;
  • tap “Cancel recognition” — all parameters will be reset. Only Inbox and Medium priority will remain.

Voice Input Settings

Voice Input settings are located in Settings → General → Voice Input.

Parameter recognition in Voice Input depends on the language selected in the app settings (Settings → General → Language). Recognition of all parameters, including dates, is supported in Russian and English.

In the settings, you can manage recognition for each parameter — date, reminder, project, tag, and priority. Two toggles are available for each of them:

  1. “Recognize [parameter]” — controls whether the parameter will be recognized during voice input.

    For example, if “Recognize tags” is disabled and you dictate “Team call tomorrow at 3:00 PM in project Work with tag standup”, the tag will not be recognized, and the task title will keep: “Team call with tag standup”. If the option is enabled, the Standup tag will be added to the task as a separate parameter.

  2. “Remove [parameter] from title” — available if recognition of the parameter is enabled. Controls whether the parameter stays in the title after recognition.

    For example, if “Recognize tags” is enabled and “Remove tag from title” is also enabled, after recognizing “Team call with tag standup” the title will keep “Team call”, and the Standup tag will be added separately. If “Remove tag from title” is disabled, the tag will be added as a parameter, but will also remain in the title: “Team call with tag standup”.

Voice Input Specifics

  1. In the free version, 10 voice inputs are available; in the Pro and Elite versions, voice input is available without limits.
  2. During the first three recognitions, the hint “You can disable recognition in the settings” is shown. Tap it — the Voice Input settings will open.
  3. On Android devices, a voice input widget is available — it lets you create tasks by voice right from your home screen without opening the app. For more details, see the Voice Input Widget section.

Requirements for Voice Input to Work

  1. On iOS, microphone access must be granted for voice input to work. Voice capture is done using built-in iOS features.
  2. On Android, microphone access must be granted, and Google services must be present and working correctly on the device. If voice input doesn’t work, make sure Google services are installed on your device and that Google voice input is selected as the default for speech recognition.
