FAQ
Can I turn Karma off?
Sure thing! Here's how:
- Open Todoist in a browser, or open the Todoist Windows or macOS app.
- Click your avatar in the upper right-hand corner.
- Select Settings.
- Select Productivity in the left-hand menu.
- Toggle off Todoist Karma.
How can I prevent breaking my streak?
Make sure to select which days you don't want to work on your tasks; your days off.
If you're away for a longer period, simply turn on vacation mode. This way, your streaks and Karma will remain intact even when you don't achieve your daily or weekly goals. Just remember to turn it back off whenever you've returned and want to start gaining Karma points again.
You'll find both options on the web, Windows, or macOS app by doing the following:
- Click your avatar in the top-right corner.
- Select Settings.
- Select Productivity in the left-hand menu.
Is there a way to reset my Karma without deleting my account?
We currently don’t have a feature that lets you reset your Karma, but you can reach out to our Support team who are able to do this for you. Your Karma will be reset to the default score of 50 points.
