My intention was to try existing options before investing time on actually building something myself. I haven't had much time for it yet unfortunately. I've toyed with the idea of experimenting with this myself OP, now that the Notion API is out. Epics are about as granular as I could see it being worthwhile for Notion to go, but with that said it could be legitimately valuable. However I could see it being potentially valuable to have an epics/tasks schema where epics are in notion and tasks are in Todoist. This just has too many friction points - manual steps, selecting properties, slow mobile experience, etc., and building an inbox-like system runs into the same management time sink (If you ever even got it set up completely in the first place, and aren't constantly tweaking it).Īs far as task management specifically goes, I'm not so sure I would ever actually manage tasks from the Notion side of things. I have tried creating a set up that would allow me to record things directly to Notion but I ran into the same issue I mentioned before. This works pretty well for me but it can build up to a pretty significant number of notes across an entire week or two.

For instance I will often listen to podcasts while out of the house, and I will take note of something I listen to by recording it in Todoist. The various options for adding tasks as well as the NLP functionality makes it the best way to quickly get stuff out of your brain when all you have is your phone.īecause of that, in my specific use case the biggest point of friction would be during my reviews when I need to take things from my inbox (Or sometimes a specific project) and put them into Notion. I agree with your point on Todoist UX, specifically on mobile. So keeping track of your areas and projects with their various notes, documents, and bookmarks. Notion is really good for the higher level view. I tried to use Notion for tasks too but there was too much overhead and friction, it just wasn't worth the time it took to maintain.
