Create a task by voice

The fastest way to capture a task is to say it. TickTad transcribes on your device and parses the time, date and intent for you.

How it works

1. Tap the voice button on the Tasks screen.
2. Speak naturally, e.g. “Remind me to call the plumber tomorrow at 3pm”.
3. Review the pre-filled form and save.

What the parser understands

• Times — “at 5pm”, “half past three”, “noon”, “midnight”.
• Dates — “today”, “tomorrow”, “next Monday”, “in two weeks”, “the day after tomorrow”.
• Priority — words like “urgent” or “important” flag the task.
• Title vs description — “…and then…” splits a title from extra notes.
• ECA detection — “class”, “tuition”, “pick up”, “drop off” and similar mark it as a kids’ activity.
• Amounts — a spoken price is captured as an expense amount.

Tips

• The result is always editable — the parser is a head start, not a promise.
• Say the when clearly; everything else becomes the description.
• Use it for capture-on-the-go, then tidy up in the weekly review.
