Here are 10 essential shortcuts to know when using Twos on your phone.

1. Swipe right to complete

Swiping a thing to the right to cross it out

While you can tap on a checkbox to complete a to-do, you can also swipe things to the right to cross them out.

2. Swipe left to select

Select things to format, move them around, and even share.

3. Set reminders with auto-date detection

If you write “pick up John at 4 pm tomorrow” Twos will help you set a reminder, which you can even push to your Apple or Google calendar.

4. Space to indent

Indenting things with space at the front

At the front of anything you can press space to indent it.

You can also outdent by pressing backspace at the front of a thing.

5. Tap the dash to change a thing into a to-do

Make anything into a to-do and they will be carried over to tomorrow if unfinished.

If it’s a to-do, long press on the checkbox to change its type.

6. Press and hold to reorder

This, and most of the other shortcuts, also work on your computer at www.TwosApp.com.

7. Autocomplete a sublist

Twos finds matching lists to reduce duplication

Type part of a list name, (I have a list called “Store”, so I can type “Stor” and press sublist and it will find a list I am looking for.

8. Long press for multi-select

If you want to select a bunch of things, rather than selecting them one at a time, I can select the top one and then long press on the select button of the bottom one to select all things in between.

9. Long press to move to top/bottom

Rather than using the arrows to move things up or down one by one, if I want to move them to the top I can long press on the arrow to move them to the top or bottom.
