Settings and backup

Open Settings from the menu at the top right of the main screen, or from More. It is grouped into six sections.

Appearance

  • Dark Mode switches between light and dark. Left alone, easyToDo follows your phone's system setting.
  • Material You tints the app with your wallpaper colours, on Android 12 and newer.

Tasks

  • Tasks Grouping Policy— None keeps everything in one list; Unfinished & Finished puts finished tasks below the rest under their own headings.
  • Task Children Display Policy— whether a task card shows no subtasks, a count such as +3 subtasks (the default), or the subtasks themselves.
  • Sort By— see Search, filter and sort.

Projects

  • Drop completed tasks below moves finished tasks to the bottom of a project card's preview.
  • Max Tasks sets how many of them are shown, from 1 to 20.

Sync

  • Sync Now— pull changes from your account.
  • Show Sync Stats— the progress card described in Account and sync.

Data

Export and import move everything on the device, whether or not you use an account.

  1. Under Export, tap Export Zip Archive and choose where to save it.
  2. Under Import, set the Duplicate Strategy— Do not import or Overwrite— then tap Import Zip Archive and pick the file.
  3. Restart easyToDo. Imported data does not appear until you do.

Export before you reinstall or change phones. The archive is a zip containing a single data.json, so keep it somewhere safe.

Dashboard

This section lets you build saved sections with their own filters. It is prepared for a future release and does not change what you see yet.
