Tasks: Adding new synced list not possible

  • /e/ version: 1.18-t-20231207360613-stable-redfin
  • Device model(s): Google Pixel 5

Summary

Creating a new, cloud synced task list in the Tasks app is not possible.

Description

What is the current behavior?

In the Tasks app we can only add a new local list which is not synchronized with the Cloud.

What is the improved behavior?

We should be able to manage tasks and lists from a preiinstalled and pre-configured Tasks app.

What does it bring?

Freedom to manage everything task related from eOS itself without the need to eventually login to the Cloud to manage certain aspects of tasks.

Potential Solution

Instead of shipping OpenTasks per default (which seems to lack quite some functionality around task management), it might be worth considering shipping a more feature complete Tasks App by default such as Tasks.org.
