Quick-add: type or speak tasks
The quick-add bar turns one plain-language line into a fully scheduled task. Everything below works identically whether you type it or dictate it with the microphone.
A complete example
Email the report fri 9am !high #work
→ a task titled “Email the report”, due Friday, reminder at 09:00, High priority, labelled #work. Tokens can appear in any order; whatever isn’t a token becomes the title.
Dates
today,tonight,tomorrow(ortmrw),next week- Weekday names:
fridayorfri— always the next future occurrence.next mondaymeans Monday of next calendar week. - Explicit dates:
25 jul,july 25or2026-08-01. A month-day that already passed this year rolls to next year, and impossible dates like “31 feb” are left in the title rather than guessed at.
Times & reminders
9am,9:30am,3 p.m.,14:00, orat 7pm— punctuated forms like “3 p.m.” (which dictation produces) work too.- A date plus a time sets a reminder at that moment — push and email.
- A time on its own implies a date: today if the time is still ahead, otherwise tomorrow.
call mom at 5pmjust works. - Reminders are never scheduled in the past.
Priority
- Bang tokens:
!urgent,!high,!medium,!low - Numbers, Todoist-style (1 = highest):
!1–!4orp1–p4 - Spoken phrases — because you can’t dictate a “!”:
high priority,urgent priority,top priorityorpriority: low
Labels
Prefix any word with #: #work, #q3-launch. Labels are free on every plan and work across Areas — use them for contexts like #errand or #focus.
Voice input
Tap the microphone, speak, tap again to stop. Transcription happens in your browser’s own speech service — audio never touches Croniqs servers. Voice input understands English only for now, and works in browsers that support speech recognition (Chrome, Edge and Safari; Firefox hides the mic button).
