When a Todoist calendar feed is added to the calendar:

  • Tasks in personal projects or shared projects where you're a collaborator will appear.
  • Tasks with a due date but without a due time will appear as all-day events.
  • Tasks with a due date and due time will appear as one-hour events.
  • Tasks with a due date and task duration will appear as events with the same duration.

Is your project calendar feed no longer working? We’ve recently updated our system, which affected old calendar feed links. To fix this, follow the steps above to generate and copy a new calendar feed URL. Then, set up a new subscription in your calendar app.
  1. Open Safari for iOS.
  2. Log in to your Todoist account at https://todoist.com
  3. Open the project you want to view in your calendar.
  4. Tap the three dots icon at the top-right.
  5. Select Project calendar feed.
  6. Tap Copy link to copy the project calendar feed. If you need to refresh the feed, tap Generate new feed first.
  7. Open the Settings app on your iOS device.
  8. Scroll down and tap Mail > Accounts.
  9. Tap Add Account > Other.
  10. Select Add Subscribed Calendar and paste in the URL you copied earlier.
  11. Tap Next at the top-right.
  12. Rename the calendar if you like, then tap Save.

When you open the iOS Calendar app and tap on your available calendars, you will now see the newly added iCal feed subscription under the Subscribed section.

Unfortunately, it is not currently possible to set up a project calendar feed using Android. Sorry! We hope to add this option in the future.

However, please note that you can still set up a project calendar feed through a browser by following the instructions for the web app.

Head of Customer ExperienceShare project calendar feeds with coworkers, clients, family, or friends! This helps keep them in the loop with what you're working on, and what's due soon.

Refresh rate of your calendar feeds

CalendarRefresh.gif

How often your calendar feed refreshes depends on the calendar app you use. Some calendar apps update as often as every 5 minutes, whereas others update only once per day.

Apple Calendar is the only app that lets you manually refresh your calendar feed. If you're using Apple Calendar for macOS, press ⌘ + R. If you're using Apple Calendar for iOS, tap Calendars at the bottom of the screen. Then, pull down the screen to refresh the calendar.

If you've added tasks with recurring due dates to the project, the Todoist calendar feed only shows the first seven occurrences of these tasks in your calendar. As you get through your week, the calendar feed displays the rest of the occurrences over time.

Turn off all calendar feeds

If you need to turn off all Todoist calendar feeds, issue a new API token:

  1. Log in to Todoist at https://todoist.com.
  2. Click your avatar in the top-left.
  3. Select Integrations.
  4. Select the Developer tab.
  5. Click Issue a new API token. You'll be logged out from all devices authorized to access the Todoist account.
