Notifications

Tillor keeps you up to date about tasks by email and push notifications.

Reminders and deadlinesCopy link to this section

If a task has a Reminder or Deadline, you choose in the detail window under Notifications whether you want an Email and/or Push notification. Both are on by default. If you turn both off, nobody gets a notification for that task.

• A reminder goes off at the set time, with the title Task reminder
• A deadline notification goes off as soon as the deadline is reached and the task is not yet completed
• Completed tasks no longer give a reminder or deadline notification
• A recurring reminder goes off at every repeat, until the task is completed or the schedule ends

The notification goes to the assigned colleagues, including the members of an assigned group. If nobody is assigned, it goes to the creator of the task. The email shows a preview of the task, with the status and a button to open it.

Assigning, unassigning and completingCopy link to this section

• If a task is assigned to you, also via a group you are in, you get a notification (New task assigned). If you assign a task to yourself, you get no notification
• If someone removes you from a task, you get a notification that the task has been unassigned (Task unassigned)
• When a task is completed, the assigned colleagues and the creator get a notification, except the person who completed the task. The notification is sent with a delay of about a minute. If someone reopens the task within that time, it is not sent

Following a viewCopy link to this section

With Follow (top right of a saved view) you get an email every morning at 07:00 with a summary of that view. The email has the subject line Daily digest with the name of the view, and contains three lists:

• Overdue - open tasks whose deadline has passed
• Due today - open tasks that are due today
• Changed since the last digest - open tasks that have been changed since your previous digest

Each list shows at most 15 tasks with the deadline. At the bottom is the Open view button, which jumps straight to the view.

• If all three lists are empty, you get no email that day
• The button changes to Following. Click it to stop following. You can follow any view you can see, including colleagues' views
• If you lose access to the view, for example because the owner makes it private or deletes it, you automatically stop following
• You only see tasks you are allowed to see yourself
