Widgets

How-to

Tasks has two home-screen widgets: "add task", a one-tap capture button, and a tasks widget that lists your open tasks.

Place one

Long-press the home screen › widgets › Zenith Tasks, and drag one out. This is Android's own screen.

"add task"

2 × 1, and it stretches sideways. Tap anywhere on it and quick add opens. See Quick add, the tile & the bubble.

The tasks widget

3 × 2, and it stretches both ways.

  • The top reads "✦ Zenith Tasks", with "+" to open quick add.
  • It lists the open tasks and nodes at the top of the sky on screen, ★ priority first — up to 8, or 12 in two columns when it's wide. With nothing open it says "all clear ✦".
  • Tap "○" to complete that task. The widget redraws.
  • Tap a title to open Tasks.

It completes the same way as in Tasks: it can be undone, its reminder is cancelled, and talismans that wait for a completion run. A gated node with open tasks inside stays open, and a message says "finish the tasks inside first — this one completes only when they're done."

The widget also redraws each time you leave Tasks.
