Getting Started with To Do Lists

 

Let Cozi remember your to dos, so you don’t have to. Your family can add and manage to do list items from any computer or mobile device.

Adding and sorting list items

  • To add an item, select a list, type an item, and then press Enter.
  • To move items within a list, drag the item you want to move, and drop it where you want it to be displayed. On the web, drag with cursor; in the apps, press the three horizontal lines to the right of the item.
  • ON MOBILE: To create categories within a list, type the category header using all capital letters. For example, if you would like to organize your to do list by short-term and long-term tasks, you could add categories like TODAY or THIS WEEK
  • ON WEB: To create sections within your list, click on the three vertical dots in the top-right corner of the screen above your list title, and cho0se “Add Section” from the drop-down menu.

Checking items off a list

  • To check items off a list, click the box to the left of the item. You’ll see a check mark appear next to the item, as well as a line running through the item.
  • To remove items from a list on the web, check off the items and use the Remove menu at the top of the page.
  • To remove list items in the apps, check off the items and tap the menu (on the top right corner next to the plus sign) and select Delete checked.

NOTE: If you use the Check all Items option, then Delete all, any included headers will also be deleted.

To Do List items

Assigning a to do list

Lists can have a single owner or be listed as “Shared” if they’re being used by multiple people. Please note that assigning a list DOES NOT alert users about their to-do’s; it is only used to color code your lists to aid in organization.

To assign a to do list from the apps

To assign a To Do list:

  • On iOS, swipe left, tap Edit, tap the correct list List Owner, and tap Save.
  • On Android, scroll to the list you wish to assign, tap on the list menu (three vertical dots in the upper right hand corner), and tap Edit, choose the correct list owner, and tap Save.

Note: Assigning a to do list is not currently available on the mobile web version of Cozi.
