Which alerts you get
settings › "notifications" — "which alerts you get, one switch each" — holds one switch for each kind of alert Tasks can send. The page says: "a kind you switch off is never delivered — not silenced, never sent."
The three switches
All three start on.
| switch | its line |
|---|---|
| "task reminders" | "when a task's reminder time arrives." |
| "location arrivals" | "when you reach a place tasks are tied to." |
| "weather triggers" | "when the weather matches a task's trigger." |
What off means
A kind that's off is stopped before it is posted.
- A time reminder that's off doesn't use up "interruptions a day".
- The task's own work still happens. A weather trigger still lifts its task to priority, and a once-only weather trigger is still taken off after it fires.
- A place arrival or weather alert that waits out quiet hours comes later as itself, so it still needs its own kind on.
