If the task doesn’t appear in one of your apps, it means Todoist for Web is failing to sync.
If your added task does appear in Todoist for Web, try adding a new task in Todoist for Web and see if it shows up on your other Todoist apps. If it doesn’t appear, the app in which you added a task is the one having trouble syncing. Add a task from another platform (for example, in your mobile app) and see if it appears in Todoist for Web. Make sure you have the latest version of your task list (the one stored on our servers) by first logging out of Todoist for Web and then logging back in again. You can identify this by following the steps below: If you've tried all the above steps and your app still isn’t syncing correctly, report it to us as a technical issue and include the information below: How in the world is that an improvement?!?Īfter a couple of messages with support, I was basically told, that's the way it is, live with it.In order to avoid losing your unsynced changes, note which tasks or data are not syncing before logging out of your account and in again, clearing cache, or reinstalling the app. Now, I can either create a task, archive it, and break the link or archive it, open the archive folder, find the message (hopefully at the top), create the task, go back to inbox to read the next message. Used to be I read a message, create a task from it, then archive it (or file elsewhere). Which basically means I can't do quick inbox triaging anymore. This has been confirmed by Todoist support. Now, it opens the Outlook on the web window, and it's just sitting there and can't find the message you moved. With the old plugin, you could create a task from a message, move the message to a folder or archive it, and clicking on the Todoist task would still find the message.
To make things worse, to the point that linking to a message has become useless to me, you can't find a message if you move it. That is, when I click on a task created by the plug-in, it won't open desktop Outlook to show me the message but instead tries to open the Outlook on the web in my browser. While everything you said I agree with, however, a major issue for me is that links to email messages are now links to Outlook on the web. I found the combination of the new Outlook add-in and the new Windows app a significant step backward.
