How-To

Set a Focus filter

Use Apple Focus to choose which task states are visible in myDailyTasks.

Before you start

  • Open Apple system Focus settings.
  • Choose or create the Focus mode you want to configure.

Steps

  1. Add myDailyTasks as a Focus filter.
  2. Choose a visibility option such as All Tasks, Open Tasks Only, Priority A, Timed Tasks, Repeating Tasks, Tagged or No Tag. The list also includes completed tasks, missed Rituals and task-type filters.
  3. Enable the Focus mode.
  4. Return to myDailyTasks and confirm the visible task state matches the selected filter.
  5. Disable the Focus to return to normal app filtering, or edit/remove its myDailyTasks filter in system Focus settings. A visibility filter does not delete or reschedule the hidden work.

Confirm the setup is working

  • Turning the Focus on changes visibility; turning it off restores the ordinary view without changing task records.

If the visible list is unexpected, check both the active Focus filter and any in-app task filters.
