Tips & Tricks Tuesday: Weekend tasks in one Smart List

Weekends can be a nice time to plan all sorts of things, from housework to projects to errands to fun trips. In this week’s tip from quam, pull all your weekend tasks together in one Smart List to get started on your weekend feeling.

During the week, managing tasks for me is mostly on a day-to-day basis. But on weekends, time slips away easily. Therefore I made a weekend task list, to get a quick overview, what will be coming up and what I want to do.

Just create a Smart List with the following filter:

(due:Saturday OR due:Sunday OR due:Friday) AND dueWithin:"6 days of today"

The six days condition is useful to select only tasks for the upcoming weekend.

Options: You can select just Saturday and Sunday or whatever free days you’ve got. If you just want to display tasks of specific lists, add something like “AND (list:List1 OR list:List2 OR list:List3 … )”

Have a nice weekend!
