Deleting

Sometimes you need to remove a todo—maybe you decided not to do it, or it's no longer relevant. Deleting is straightforward.

How to Delete a Todo​

  1. Hover over the todo you want to delete - This reveals the context menu
  2. Click the trash can delete button on the far right of the context menu

When to Delete vs. Complete​

  • Complete a todo if you finished it—this keeps a record of what you accomplished
  • Delete a todo if you decided not to do it or it's no longer relevant

Completed todos can be hidden from view using Ctrl + B, so you don't necessarily need to delete them just to get them out of the way. But if something truly doesn't belong in your list anymore, deleting it keeps things clean.

Permanent Deletion​

Deleting a todo is permanent—once it's gone, it's gone. So make sure you really want to remove it before confirming the deletion.
