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.
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.
Tips
tip
Use Google actions for ongoing research tasks. One tap runs the search with the task title as the query — no typing needed.
