Finish or delete a task
Swipe a task right to finish it and left to delete it. On a computer, use its checkbox and its ✕. Undo brings either back.
Finish a task
On a phone
Swipe the task to the right until the ✓ lights up, then let go.

Click the task’s checkbox.
The task is ticked off and leaves the list. Finished tasks stay hidden until you turn on Show finished at the top of the list; then they show crossed out at the bottom of their section.
Delete a task
On a phone

It’s deleted at once, with its note and anything attached to it. A note at the bottom says Task deleted, with Undo.
Take it back
- Finished by mistake? Press the undo arrow at the top of the list. Or turn on Show finished, then swipe the task right again, or on a computer untick its checkbox.
- Deleted by mistake? Press Undo in the note, or the undo arrow at the top of the list.
Good to know
- Finishing a task leaves its subtasks open. Deleting it keeps them, as ordinary tasks of its section.
- A repeating task you finish comes back with its next date.
- For a task you’ve decided not to do, there’s Won’t do: it closes the task without calling it finished.
