What is new in Todowl

A short, honest changelog of what actually shipped. Items are grouped by month, newest first, and only cover changes you can see in the app.

August 2026

The app moved to todowl.com

The product used to live on mindtracker.app. It now runs on three addresses: todowl.com for the website, app.todowl.com for the app itself, and this help centre on help.todowl.com. Old links redirect, so nothing you bookmarked is lost.

Task panel rebuilt as a resizable column

Opening a task no longer covers the list. The detail panel is a column you can drag wider or narrower, and it keeps that width. Inside it the description editor gained real formatting: headings, bullet and numbered lists, checklists, quotes, inline code, links, dividers and images you can resize, download or open full screen.

Won’t do, next to done

A task can now be closed as “won’t do” rather than completed. It leaves your open lists the same way a finished task does, but it is drawn with a cross instead of a tick, so a review of the week tells the truth about what actually happened.

Trash and archive

Deleting a project, a list or a task now moves it to the trash, where it sits for 30 days and can be restored, along with the children it took with it. The archive is the other half of the pair: it holds things you want out of the way with no countdown at all. Both have their own screens in the sidebar.

Calendar subscriptions

The calendar can now pull in read-only events from outside Todowl. Two sources work today: public holidays for a country you pick, and any iCal (.ics) URL. They appear as their own group in the calendar sidebar, in their own colour, and you can switch each one off without deleting it.

Recurring events understand a series

Moving one occurrence of a repeating event now asks what you meant: just this one, this weekday across the series, or everything from here on. If the series has per-weekday time overrides, it warns you before resetting them.

New sign-in screen

Sign-in was rebuilt around a guided product tour, so a first-time visitor can see what the app looks like before creating anything. Google and Apple buttons sit at the top, with a passwordless email link and a normal password form underneath. Buttons for providers the server has not been given credentials for are disabled with an explanation instead of failing after the click.

Priority colours everywhere

Priority is now one colour language across the whole app. The checkbox, the card stripe, the flag and the list group header all read from the same source, so a high priority task looks the same wherever you meet it.

Earlier

The finance tracker, habits, notes and the calendar itself all predate this list. The planning screens inside finance, meaning budget, goals, accounts and subscriptions, are still being finished; Planning screens in progress explains where each one stands.
