How do I see my tasks as a list, board, calendar or mind map?

The four icons at the top right of the Tasks page switch the view: List, Board, Calendar and Mind Map. All four show the same tasks, so a change in one is there in the others. The view you used last opens the next time.

#List

The List is headed Today. Your open tasks sit in sections: From earlier, Today, This evening, Next 7 days, Later, No date and Someday. Later is folded and shows a count; click it to open. Above the sections you see the Add a task box, the planning card, Waiting for you and Today’s three. Once a goal is in progress, a chip under the title, named Filter by goal, narrows the list to one goal or to tasks with no goal.

#Board

The Board has four columns: To do, In progress, Waiting and Done this week. Drag a card to another column to change its status; the page says “Moved to In progress.” with an Undo. Dropping a card on Done this week finishes it, and the “How did it go?” line opens. The More button on a card makes the same moves without dragging. A card in Waiting says how long it has been there, for example “since Mon”.

#Calendar

The Calendar shows Day, Week or Month, with arrows and a Today button. Tasks with a start time sit in time blocks. Tasks with a day and no time wait in a tray for that day. Drag a block to another day or time, or drag its bottom edge to change its length; each change leaves a line such as “Now 45 min long.” with an Undo. In the Month view, a day with more tasks than fit shows a “more” button, and the day number opens that day. Deadlines show as small flags and Just a reminder items as bells.

#Mind Map

The Mind Map draws your open tasks as a map. The centre is “Open tasks”, the categories branch from it, then the tasks, then their sub-tasks. Click a branch to fold or open it. Drag the background to move around, use the Zoom in, Zoom out and Fit buttons or the keys + and -, and press 0 to fit the map to the window. Pick a goal in Filter by goal and the goal becomes the centre; the goals article covers moving nodes there.

#Search, Completed and the rest

The magnifier at the top right searches your open tasks. If finished tasks match too, a line says so and offers Show them. The three dots open a menu with Completed tasks, Week report, Reminders and Recently removed. See where your tasks are kept.
