Actions
Most task managers stop at "I'll remind you about this thing." 2Do goes further: every task can carry an Action that turns the task itself into something you can do in one tap.
Adding an Action
Open a task → tap the Action field. Pick a type:
- Call — places a phone call.
- Message — opens the messaging app (SMS) with the contact pre-filled.
- Mail — opens your default mail app pre-addressed.
- Visit — opens an address in Google Maps for navigation.
- Browse — opens a URL in your default browser.
- Google — runs a web search using the task title. For Call, Message, and Mail actions you can pick a contact directly from your Android Contacts.
Performing an Action
A task with an action shows an action button on its row. Tap it and 2Do does the thing. You can also perform from the long-press menu → Perform Action.
Google (Search) Actions
The Google action uses the task title as the query. So a task titled Best lasagna recipe runs that exact search when you tap the action button.
tip
Use Google actions for ongoing research tasks. One tap runs the search with the task title as the query — no typing needed.
Combining with Locations
A task can carry both a Location and an Action. Common pattern:
- Location: Home Depot, 123 Main St
- Action: Visit pointing at the same address
- Tag:
@errandsThe task surfaces in the Nearby panel when you're close, optionally fires an arrive alarm, and the action button gives you turn-by-turn directions when you tap it.
