How to Tida

How to use Tida on iPhone

A handful of gestures, and you’ve got the whole app.

The basics
Book the van

Add anything

Type in the bar at the bottom and press return. Keep typing to add the next one — the bar stays put. On the home screen, the field up top files straight to your Inbox.

Pay rentFri · 3:00 PM

Type the time, skip the picker

Write it into the task — pay rent friday, standup 430pm, call mom 9am. Tida reads the date, sets the reminder, and tidies the words away.

Pick up the keys

Tap the circle, tap the name

The circle finishes a task, and finishes it back if you change your mind. The name opens it, where notes, a due date, reminders and repeats live.

Gestures
Kitchen renoOrder the tiles

Swipe to nest, swipe back out

Swipe a task right to tuck it under the one above as a subtask, as many levels deep as you like. Swipe left to pull it back out.

Call the plumber

Drag to move

Grab the handle on the right and drag a task anywhere, to any spot and any depth. The list scrolls as you reach the edge.

Pick up the keys

Swipe a done task away

Finished with it for good? Swipe a completed task left to delete. You’ll get a moment to undo.

Organize

Sort into buckets

Buckets group your tasks however you think — Work, Home, Errands. New tasks land in your Inbox. Tap the bucket icon at the top to make another, with a name, a colour and an emoji.

Two ways to see home

Buckets shows them as a grid of cards. Rows lists them one to a line with what’s left in each. Both live in Settings, under Appearance, with a preview of each before you choose.

Rearrange the home screen

Tap the up-and-down arrows at the top and the buckets start to wiggle. Drag them into the order you want, tap a minus to delete one, then tap Done. Inbox always leads; Upcoming moves with the rest.

Press and hold to peek

Hold a bucket on the home screen to see what’s inside without leaving where you are. Let go and it closes. Nothing inside the peek can be tapped by accident.

See what’s coming

Open Upcoming for everything with a due date, as a list, by week, or across the month. Pick a day in the month view and what you type files straight to it.

Paste a list

Have a list somewhere else? Open a bucket, tap the clipboard in its header, and paste. One task per line, indent a line to make it a subtask, and dates in the text are read as you’d expect.

Your data

Your data stays yours

There’s no Tida account and no Tida server — your tasks are never sent to us. On the free plan everything stays on this device. With Premium it syncs through your own iCloud, held by Apple under your Apple ID.
