Loving this idea. I wish this was available outside Slack as well.

Pros:

I always have a deadline to my todos now

Cons:

Only available in Slack

Today List because todos are valid only for Today? Clever! 😅

This is unique and much needed. Todo lists get messy and frequently bleed into _n_ days. Looking fw to trying this out. For those interested in outsourcing some of the todo's made in today list, we make a service for contacting experts on-demand in slack called gratify.ai. Nice work @rajat_sriv !

Can you add tasks for other people?

@jorgecerda No. You can only add tasks for yourself. This is intentional because the app wants to increase productivity of a user and I think it is best left to the user to decide if he'll be able to finish the task in 24 hours or not. If we allow others, it may be possible that five different persons assign 5 tasks to a guy which may be too much for him to complete in a day. Also, this app encourages users to break down big tasks into small chunks which can easily be completed. If others add a single time-taking task to one's 'Today List', it might spillover to next day which will hamper the user's weekly performance. I hope this explains your question. Please reply me if it doesn't, I'm happy to help. 😄

@rajat_sriv Hey, I really appreciate the explanation. And it makes sense, so far I haven´t found a to-do list for the rest of my team. This makes complete sense if everyone knows what to do and wich of those tasks they decide to complete today.

Usually we don't put up any deadline to the tasks we add to our usual to-do lists. Even if we do, we tend to snooze them at times. This product encourages user to break huge tasks into small chunks and add those small tasks to the 'Today List'. The expiry date attached to every task will motivate user to complete it before 24 hours. There is no way you can move the deadline. Consciously, this will increase your productivity and will leave you happy at the end of day since you'd have completed all the tasks that you planned for that day. Can't wait for the PH community to try this unique to-do list in your Slack workspace and give feedback. Basically, if you have decided to add a task to this list, you HAVE to complete it in a day. Period.
