Hi,

I have tasks with multiple categories assigned to each. I would like to filter them based on OR, AND, and NOT criteria. E.g.,

Home AND Health

In the windows version, you can select multiple categories while viewing (e.g., Home OR Health) but I haven't figured out how to do this even in the smartphone version of Agendus. Does anyone if such advanced searching is available in the latest version?

Thanks,
Shava

Hi Shava,

Currently, you cannot do this but I defintely like this feature and second the suggestion.

The closest work around that I can offer is to place a keyword or identifier in your description when you use multiple categories...like when you create a task that is in the health and home categories, the letters could be hh. So your description would say something like: "hh Sign up for CPR Class"

Then when you search with the filter, you can type "hh" and it will bring up all those with health and home.

I know it is a bit extra, but it should get you by for the time being.

Much appreciate the suggestion! Do you happen to know if there is a wildcard character in the filtering (i.e., to match any character)? E.g., H* or *H. Usually, it would be some character like %, ., or * but I tried all those.

Hi Shava,

Nope not at the present but that would be a nice suggestion for a feature.
