Pocket Tasks

Pocket Tasks keeps your todos, lists and reminders on your own server and speaks CalDAV like Nextcloud, so every Tasks feature of the app works with it: the Tasks tab and its views, natural-language quick add, subtasks, the task calendar, app badge reminders, Make this line a task… in notes, and tasks saved offline until the server can be reached. See Nextcloud Tasks for the full list.

Choose the app

Open Settings → Services → Tasks. The Tasks app picker has Pocket Tasks and Nextcloud Tasks; the fields follow the choice and both stay saved, so you can switch back. Nextcloud Tasks signs in with the account in Services → Nextcloud.

With Pocket Core, the app follows your choice under Core’s Devices → Apps on your devices → Tasks. Without a choice, Pocket Tasks is used whenever Core supplies it.
