Last updated

Planify is pretty tasks with local database. Your lists, reminders, and pins live in its data directory. Todoist sync mirrors select lists to cloud.

Same data folder plus Todoist link means same tasks. Exact file names shift with releases. Keep Todoist linked during moves. If tasks vanish, check the source picker first. A local versus Todoist list split is the usual empty view cause. Screenshots of settings help when support asks for reproduction steps later. Check the in app storage readout when sizes look wrong on different releases.

Where Planify Tasks stores this, by platform

Linux
~/.local/share/planify (local lists, Todoist via link)

Local lists live in the Planify data directory. Copy it for moves. Todoist links relink separately with fresh tokens. Verify counts before wiping.

Frequently asked questions

How do I move Planify tasks to a new machine?

Tasks live in the local database with optional Todoist sync per list. Copy the data directory to the new machine over USB for local lists. Re link Todoist after, since tokens do not transfer. Verify counts before wiping.

Does Planify back up tasks?

Yes, in the local database per list with reminders attached. The app holds a working copy plus plugin cache. Views rebuild after import. Todoist lists sync separately, so export local lists first before relying on cloud restores.
