Version 2.4.4

Build 258minor

Smaller Features

  • Stuff is fully optimized for the iPhone Duo

    • Add a few in a row and they stay in the order you typed them.
  • On Mac, Option-R now resets the value on a Chipcard, Opt-X removes it
  • You can now press and hold any chip (or right-click it on Mac) for quick options, including on Plan, Deadline, Repeating, and more. Also helpful for renaming Tags!
  • You can now create a blocker for a Task! Open the Hole Punch Menu and tap More
  • New Settings
    • Auto-Sort Today in Mornings lets you turn off the automatic sort Stuff gives Today at the start of each day, so the order you set ahead of time stays put. It syncs across your devices.
    • Open To lets you choose where Stuff opens after being closed: the Launchpad, your last-viewed screen, Inbox, Today, or any Collection
  • Lots and lots of little design updates
  • Lots and lots of little quality of life updates

Blips

  • Fixed a blip where the screen sometimes stayed dimmed after creating a new Task
  • Fixed a blip where Upcoming had uneven spacing between dates and the items below them
  • Fixed a blip where tapping Go on a dependent Task in a cleared List opened No List instead of that List in the Adventure Log
  • Fixed a blip where Dependencies showed blank or went missing when the other Task was in a cleared List
  • Fixed a blip where Re-open to last-viewed list could leave you stuck on a blank screen on a slow connection

  • Fixed a blip where the app icon badge could show the wrong number of Today items

Version 2.4.3

Build 257minor

Smaller features

  • You can now create and edit repeating Tasks from the Stuff CLI (see --help menu)
    • Try stuff add "Water plants" --repeat weekly --repeat-on mon,thu, then run stuff edit task --help to see every repeat option.
    • Note: The --repeat-json option has been replaced by the new repeat options above.
  • Export always exports in the order of tasks on the screen
  • Search now has its own Action Menu, with Select, Export, and Feedback

Blips

  • Fixed a blip where inviting friends to a Shared List didn’t stick. The teammate showed up at first, then disappeared after leaving the List, and the invite never reached your friend (thanks for the report, eirik!)
  • Fixed a blip where Export did nothing when viewing a single date
  • Fixed a blip where Widget checkboxes didn’t show In Progress, blocked, or cancelled Tasks
  • Fixed a blip where the Hide/Show Calendar option in Today’s Action Menu didn’t update after tapping it
  • Fixed a blip on Mac where pressing Return while editing a List or Space name, or the Today Card notes, just highlighted the whole field. Return now saves your edit and finishes editing
  • Fixed a blip on Mac where dragging Tasks over the sidebar left a gray hover highlight stuck on the first row it passed, alongside the blue highlight showing where the Tasks would land
  • Fixed a blip on Mac where dragging the window by the toolbar above the sidebar could also pick up a List scrolled underneath it. Dragging there now just moves the window
  • Fixed a blip on Mac where the arrow keys and Return stopped working after closing a Chipcard
  • Fixed a blip where view descriptions, like the one at the top of Inbox, were spaced differently from Notes on Today. A one-line description now takes up the same room as a one-line note
  • Fixed a blip where Tasks in Search didn’t animate when expanding, collapsing, rearranging, or moving to the Trash. Results still pop in and out right away as you type
  • Fixed a blip on iPad where the Tab key on the on-screen keyboard didn’t do anything while adding a Task. It now moves to Notes, just like on Mac
  • Fixed a blip on iPad where pressing Return on a hardware keyboard while editing a Task’s name added a new line. Return now finishes editing
  • Fixed a blip where the screen stayed dim for a moment after adding a Task, and sometimes didn’t brighten back up at all. It now clears as soon as Add Tasks closes

Build 248minor

Blips

  • Fixed a blip with a UI lag on some iPhones

  • Implemented a fix where notifications weren’t being received on the Mac
  • Temporarily turned off Tidy Up as a feature, will make available again soon!
  • Implemented a fix during sign up / sign in where it would continue to show the Set Username screen (thanks for the feedback, Joe!)

Version 2.4

Build 254majordevlog

New Features

  • Introducing Siri AI for Stuff (iOS 27+)
    • You can now create tasks in Stuff simply by asking Siri to do so (”Remind me to do the laundry tomorrow in Stuff”). Over time, Siri can learn your preferences, and automatically default to Stuff as your task manager, so you won’t always need to say “in Stuff” at the end of commands.
    • Edit or get information about Lists and Tasks that are currently on screen (e.g. “Schedule this list for tomorrow” while viewing a list)
    • Add multiple tasks, and create lists, with a single request (e.g. “What would I need to bring on a trip to Tokyo?” … Siri replies … “Add those items to a new list in Stuff called Trip to Tokyo”)
    • Try speaking naturally with Siri about your desired interaction with Stuff, and let me know how it goes!
  • Introducing Tidy Up (available for iPhone 18)
    • Stuff can now proactively suggest improvements to your tasks to help you keep organized, both in your backlog and in tasks as you create them!
    • While adding tasks, Stuff uses on-device Apple Intelligence to proactively recommend Lists, Spaces, or Tags to which this task might belong
    • While Stuff is open on your device, Tidy Up runs in the background and scans your tasks for suggestions of Dependencies, List moves, Tags, Plans, etc. Access all of the suggestions from your Launchpad > Action Menu > Tidy Up.
    • When your Today is overfilled with Tasks, Stuff proactively scans your tasks for Today and recommends Re-Planning some tasks based on priority
  • Stuff is now available in French and Spanish, in addition to just English! More languages to come! 🇫🇷🇪🇸
    • In your Settings in Stuff, you can also choose if you want Stuff to use the System language, or manually override with something of your own choice.
  • You can now drag Spaces and Lists around on the Launchpad, including moving Lists into and out of Spaces, so your Launchpad can stay arranged in exactly the way you expect.
  • You can now edit List Templates! Just tap on a template, tap Edit, and change anything from the Space, Tags, Name, Icon, even add and rearrange tasks and headings.
    • Also, List Templates can now be assigned a Space to which they’ll always be created
  • Introducing the Stuff CLI
    • On Mac, Stuff now comes bundled with a CLI (Command Line Interface), which is particularly helpful for interacting with your data with your Agents!
    • The Stuff CLI can create tasks, query for tasks, update task statuses and other metadata, trash tasks, and more
    • After installing the CLI, ask your agents for interesting data, like: “When am I most productive?”, “Summarize what I completed in the last month”, or “Give me insights on my procrastination patterns”
    • The CLI is available for Extra Stuff members
  • Better Navigation on Mac
    • Forward/Back buttons (or use Cmd-[ or Cmd-])
    • You can now press Shift-Cmd-J on Mac to highlight the currently-active list on the sidebar
    • Breadcrumbs in the title bar give you a better sense of where you are
  • You can now paste using Cmd-V anywhere in Stuff, and your clipboard will be added as a task
    • Pro tip: if you copy formatted Markdown tasks, you can also paste these into Stuff
    • You can also drag text into Stuff from another app to have it create tasks

Smaller Features

  • Design updates on all platforms to feel at-home on iOS 27, iPadOS 27, and MacOS 27
    • Standardized Launchpad customization options
    • Refined Liquid Glass implementations
    • Brought more tiny details into alignment 😊
    • Widgets now adjust based on your Dynamic text size, and avoid overlapping the Super Button in the bottom right corner
    • Tasks now show their Created date
    • Folded headings now show the number of tasks being hidden
    • New, cleaner design on Chipcards
    • A redesigned onboarding sign up/sign in experience (more screens in Stuff will adopt this design language in coming updates)
  • You can now just tap the notes icon to start editing notes
  • Tutorial tasks are now fully interact-able
  • You can now collapse Spaces even when “Hide Upcoming” is turned off on filtering on Launchpad
  • On Mac, Stuff now doesn’t fully close when it’s last window closes. Should be nice for leaving Quick Add still active in the background. (thanks for the feedback!)
  • Added a new “Available” option in the Checkbox menu (when pressing and holding or right-clicking a Checkbox) if the task is otherwise not available
  • You can now rename and delete a tag right from it’s View
  • Cleaned up the menu actions when pressing and holding the Stuff app icon
  • You can now create tasks in a list or space simply by right-clicking (or pressing and holding) on it on the sidebar (or on Launchpad)
  • Searching on the Search page is now dramatically faster
  • You can now disable Quick Add on Mac
  • You can now partially-match tag names or list/space names through Natural Language Processing, making it much easier to do things like using emojis in your tag names 😊 (e.g. typing “High” will suggest the tag “High Priority 🔥”)
  • You can now Option-Click a proposal chip on Mac to add the proposed metadata (e.g. “Tomorrow”) without actually removing that text from the task name
  • Reminders from Stuff are now time-sensitive, so they’ll deliver even while you’re in a Focus
  • A new “Change Icon” button for changing the emoji icon on a list, rather than only the option to remove it or add it
  • Tapping the Created, Completed, or Repeating dates beneath a task will toggle between showing the date and showing the days between that date and now

Blips

  • Fixed some blips with dragging around and rearranging tasks
  • Fixed an issue where scroll bars would sometimes get stuck on Mac
  • Fixed a blip where pasting a really long Note could freeze the app. Long Notes now show a shortened preview so your rows stay easy to scan, and open into a scrollable editor when you click in — nothing you wrote ever gets trimmed.
  • Fixed a blip on Mac where a mouse wheel wouldn't scroll a long Note, and where pressing Tab from a Note could jump you out to the sidebar.
  • Fixed a blip on Mac where Quick Add could cut off the bottom half of a Chipcard toolbar.
  • Fixed a blip where the Single Task widget wouldn’t always open to the task when tapped on.
  • Fixed an issue where range multi-selection couldn’t begin with a List row then select a Task row
  • Fixed a blip where the Leave a Review banner wouldn’t go away until you quit the app
  • Fixed a blip on iPhone where the auto-cancel of multi-select when changing views didn’t always persist, and would multi-select rather than navigate to newly-selected lists
  • Fixed a blip on the Lists Chipcard where it would always show all list results in a Space when searching
  • Fixed a blip where SearchView didn’t support shift-click to select multiple rows on Mac
  • Fixed a blip where tapping “Show completed” on a List would sometimes report that there were no completed tasks briefly before actually showing some completed tasks
  • Fixed a blip where tags wouldn’t always be reset when adding a new Task
  • Fixed a blip where cancelling a task would play a haptic twice
  • Fixed a blip where sharing into Stuff from some apps (like the App Store) wouldn’t actually get the metadata needed to add a task
  • Fixed a blip where dragging a task into a folded heading would still show the task after drop
  • Select All now also selects all lists, headings, spaces, and upcoming repeats on the list in addition to all tasks
  • Sort now works on Upcoming
  • Fixed a blip where dragging multiple tasks out of “Just moved out” wouldn’t remove all of them
  • Fixed a blip in Adventure Log where tapping on a List that was completed today wouldn’t navigate to it
  • Fixed a blip where attempting to navigate to a task that was being filtered out by the view wouldn’t do anything (check that tapping this banner actually expands it when it shows)
  • Fixed a blip where the Menu Bar actions for changing task status while adding a task weren’t going through the menu bar
  • Fixed a blip where trashing a task in the “Just moved out” section wouldn’t actually remove the task from the list
  • Fixed a blip where editing a list template on Mac would temporarily show that list in the Launchpad
  • Fixed a blip where the banner proposing to complete a list wouldn’t always update when a new task was added
  • Fixed a blip on Mac where Cmd-1, Cmd-2 etc. wouldn’t work if the Sidebar wasn’t open

  • Fixed a blip where the button to unfold a heading didn’t always work on Mac
  • Fixed a blip where sharing a list with another doer could sometimes clear away tasks before their time
  • Fixed a blip where trashed tasks could sometimes appear in the Today section of the Adventure Log
  • Fixed a blip where Headings sometimes didn’t filter correctly
  • Fixed a blip where expanding a task in a compact window size, then moving to a regular window size, would no longer have that task as expanded
  • Fixed a blip on iPad where the name of the view would briefly flash in the title bar when changing views
  • Fixed a blip where searching for a task would sometimes not leave it expanded when revealing it
  • Fixed a blip on Mac where emojis on lists couldn’t always be edited
  • Fixed a blip on Mac where Cmd-F didn’t always reliably show contextual searching (e.g. Quick Actions, searching on a Chipcard, etc.)

Version 2.3.7

Build 239minor

Smaller Features

  • You can now drag Tasks onto In Progress in the sidebar to mark them as In Progress without changing their List or Space.
  • You can now press Shift-Return on Mac to add a new line in multiline text fields, while Return continues to submit.
  • You can now use the Up and Down Arrow keys to move through proposed Tasks in Listen or Scan Mode, press Return to edit the selected name, and use Escape to step back through editing and selection.
  • You can now add a Quick Plan to a selected proposed Task before adding it.

Blips

  • Stuff is now faster and more performant. Clicking/tapping around on Lists from the sidebar on Mac and iPad is much snappier.
  • Updated Empty Trash so everything clears from view together, newly trashed items still appear normally, and the previous contents return if deletion fails.
  • Fixed a blip where dragging Tasks between date sections could stop working partway through a drag.
  • Removed an inconspicuous border on proposed tags text on Mac.
  • Fixed a blip where the Lists Chipcard didn’t always show Lists from Search, or could show deleted items.

  • Fixed a blip where pressing Return after searching for and choosing a List or Space didn’t save the selection and close the Chipcard.
  • Updated the Mac sidebar with a cleaner, more compact design and easier row, disclosure, and options-menu interactions.
  • Fixed a blip where Today’s Hide Upcoming filter didn’t always refresh after a Task’s reminder time changed on another device.
  • Fixed a blip where pressing Return after searching for and choosing a Tag or Dependency didn’t save the selection and close the Chipcard.
  • Updated the iPhone and iPad Home Screen Leave Feedback quick action to start an email to The Mity Company instead of opening Stuff’s feedback screen.
  • Fixed a blip where setting or changing a Dependency on a collapsed Task could change its status without actually saving the Dependency.

Version 2.3.6

Build 234minor

Smaller Features

  • You can now send feedback right from your Mailbox.

Blips

  • Fixed a blip where Settings toggles that need permission, like Calendar, Reminders importing, and Notifications, could turn on, ask for permission, then turn themselves back off in a loop until Stuff was restarted.
  • Fixed a blip where opening the Trash Bin could freeze or crash when it contained Tasks whose original List or Heading was no longer available.
  • Fixed link detection when emoji, accented characters, or non-Latin text appear before a link in Stuff.
  • Fixed a blip where adding or editing a Dependency could lose the connection when the other Task wasn’t currently loaded, and tightened up undo so it restores the Dependency and Task status accurately.
  • Fixed a blip where the completed or cancelled date could disappear after marking an expanded Task complete or cancelled.
  • Improved searching in Dependency and List or Space Chipcards so results keep up more smoothly while you type, especially when you have lots of stuff.
  • Fixed a few Mac keyboard shortcut blips around Chipcards: Command-P now reliably opens Plan while adding Tasks, and Return and Escape now behave consistently—including letting search handle them first while it’s open.
  • Polished Chipcards so they line up with Add Tasks, with matching width and tighter spacing around their floating toolbar.
  • Polished the Launchpad on iPhone by bringing its content a little closer to the top of the screen.
  • Fixed a blip where typing the first character of a new password while creating an account also filled it into the confirmation field.
  • Polished the Launchpad so the Collections and Spaces & Lists section labels line up neatly with their row icons.
