Add Task

There are a few ways to add a task, depending on where you are.

Press ⌘ N, or choose Tasks → Create Task from the menu bar. The task creator opens on top of whatever screen you’re on.

Press ⌥ R to open the Cognition Bar. This shortcut is global, so it works even when DayByDay isn’t the frontmost app — handy for catching a thought without switching windows.

Connect a calendar or import an .ics file and its events appear as tasks. Imported events are read-only and can’t be dragged.
