Todoist has announced that is is now integrated with Alexa. The new integration will enable Alexa to help you add and remember your Todoist tasks from any room in your house without you having to reach for your phone.
Available instantly on your connected Alexa device. Supports: English. Voice Pad dictation lets you record your thoughts whenever you are near an Alexa device and then sends an email of your notes to your registered email address. Manage your Todoist tasks on any Amazon Echo device hands-free with a little help from Alexa — the voice-controlled Amazon assistant that turns your words into actions. With simple voice commands, you can ask Alexa to add new tasks to your Todoist, update. Hey guys, I had this problem for a little while and found the issue was in the list stored in the Alexa app (Top left icon - Lists - Shopping). Note your list somewhere then ask Alexa to clear this list (Alexa clear my shopping list) then kill both Todoist and Alexa apps. When you return to the apps both should have empty shopping lists. The Todoist skill lets you manage your Todoist task list with your voice. Simply Ask Alexa to add new tasks or to read out your tasks. All you need is a Todoist account, so sign up at todoist.com. All the Todoist tasks you have due today will be added to your Alexa to-do list each morning.
Alexa, as you may know, is the smart voice service that powers Amazon’s hands-free voice-controlled Echo and Echo Dot devices. It does not appear that Todoist has any plans to integrate with Siri or Cortana. There is potential that this could change in the future.
Alexa Todoist Skill
It is now possible to tell Alexia to add tasks to your to-do list. Todoist gives an example. Say something like “Alexa, add pick up the kids to my to-do list”. That task will be automatically added to your Todoist inbox with today’s due date. You can also have Alexa add reoccurring tasks to your to-do list. Those tasks will automatically appear on your to-do list each month.
You can tell Alexa what items to add to your shopping list, and those items will automatically appear on a shopping list in Todoist. Another thing you can do is say: “Alexa, what’s on my to-do list?” Alexa will respond by telling you what tasks are on your to-do list.
Alexa To Do List App
Todoist says that the first thing you need to do is to enable Todoist in the Alexa app available on iOS, Android, and Fire tablets. Next, link your Todoist account. Your Alexa To-do and Shopping lists will be automatically synced with your Todoist.
