Todoist adds useful new features for Android Wear integration

Todoist is upping the stakes by making your Android Wear device more functional. The app takes full advantage of Android Wear with its newest update. Notifications are actionable right from your wrist. An example is being able to reschedule due tasks or marking them as complete. It also makes use of voice integration in a more useful way. You can add tasks by saying, “Ok Google, start Todoist. Add task.” And you can even add comments to shared tasks using voice. Your to-do lists can even be beamed from your phone to your watch for a quick reference.

The update also boosts performance, data parsing, time zone handling, and gets rid of unspecified bugs.

The app is written in a male voice to be unthreatening and humorous. The iOS-only app, however, still borrows pieces of advice from qualified midwives.
