Since Todoist, its Windows 10 app doesn't support global shortcuts at the moment. I made a small workaround that adds the "open Todoist" and "Add new Todoist task" global shortcuts to Win 10. These workarounds add the following global TODOIST shortcuts to WIN 10:
- alt+ctrl+a (Add new task)
- alt+ctrl+s (open Todoist)
For questions, issues, and suggestions, go to https://github.com/rickstaa/todoist-global-shortcuts-WIN10/issues.
To install the Todoist global shortcuts, please perform the steps below:
-
Install AutoHotKey.
-
Unzip the Workaround file.
-
Go to the "todoist-global-shortcuts-WIN10\TODOIST_AHK" folder.
-
Click on the
installer.vbs
file to install the workaround. -
Start AutoHotKey and the
todoist_global_shortcuts.ahk
script (Found in the user-startup folder) or restart the PC for the changes to take effect.
- Make sure AutoHotkey is running on startup.
- Ensure that you have the right user privileges to add files to your user-startup folder.
- Still not working go to https://github.com/rickstaa/todoist-global-shortcuts-WIN10/issues
This shortcut is meant for the windows 10 app. A shortcut AutoHotkey for the web version can be found on this page.
