Lists are a convenient way to organize your tasks. Each list can have its own settings and defaults in order to speed up task creation. Here are each of the settings available on lists:
Color
This color is shown next to the list in the menu and any dropdowns where the list appears as an option. Please note that tasks will only take on the color of their list if Task color is set to “List color”.
Default calendar
This is the calendar that tasks in this list will be scheduled into by default. You can override the default calendar when creating or editing a task.
Note: If the calendar field is not in the lists' settings view, your account is on a newer version of the app that does not support different calendars for different lists. You can change which external calendar tasks are synced to in Settings > Calendars.
This newer version is still being evaluated, so if you have feedback on this, please let us know!
Default hours
Tasks in this list that have Auto-schedule turned on will be auto-scheduled into the selected scheduling hours by default. You can override the default scheduling hours when creating or editing a task.
Task color
Determines whether tasks are colored by the smart color-coding system or by the list's color. This is a global setting, so changing it for one list changes it for all lists.
