Say it

Say what you’re planning. Get the whole list.

No typing item by item. Describe the trip, the dinner or the week, and Tasks writes the list, sorted into sections, with a colour and an icon to match.

Packing for a week in Porto with our baby

  • On the watch
    Select “+ New list” and speak.

    Inside a list, “+ Add items” adds to it instead.

  • On the iPhone
    Hold the + button and speak.

    Say the items (“milk, eggs and two lemons”) and you get exactly those. Describe a goal and you get what it needs.

  • Already started?
    Autocomplete fills the gaps.

    Open a list on the iPhone and let Tasks add what it’s missing, without repeating what’s there.

Tasks listening on the iPhone: “Say what you need, like ‘shopping list for a romantic dinner’.”

Questions

Good to know

Which watches does it work with?

Pebble Time 2, Pebble Round 2 and Pebble 2 Duo. Each has its own layout: colour on the Time 2 and the Round 2, black and white on the Duo. Older Pebbles aren’t supported.

Do I need an iPhone?

Yes. Your lists live in the Tasks app on your iPhone, the subscription is bought there, and the watch reaches Tasks through the Pebble app on your phone. There’s no Android version.

You can use the iPhone app on its own, without a watch.

How do I link my watch?
  1. Install Tasks on your iPhone and start the free trial.
  2. Install the Tasks watch app from the Pebble app store.
  3. Open Tasks on the watch. It shows a QR code that leads here; press SELECT and it shows a 6-character code.
  4. On the iPhone, open Tasks › Settings › Pebble, type the code and tap Link watch.

Each code works once and lasts 10 minutes. If it has expired, go back on the watch and press SELECT for a new one. More help.

Which languages does it speak?

English, Spanish and Catalan. The iPhone app is in all three. Say a list in any of them and it comes back in the language you spoke, whatever your phone is set to. The watch app’s menus are in English.

What happens to my lists if I cancel?

Nothing is deleted. Your lists stay on your iPhone. Tasks needs an active subscription to open, so you’ll see them again as soon as you resubscribe. The watch shows “Subscribe on your iPhone” until then.

If you’d rather remove everything, delete the app, and ask us to delete the copy kept for your watch.

Does it work without a connection?

On the iPhone, your lists are stored on the phone and work offline. Making lists by voice needs a connection.

The watch needs its phone nearby, with internet, to fetch lists. Check-offs made while it can’t reach the phone are kept and sent when it’s back.

What happens to what I say?

Your speech is turned into text by Apple’s speech recognition on the iPhone, or by the Pebble app’s dictation on the watch. Only the text reaches us, and it’s sent to OpenAI to build the list. We don’t keep your recordings or transcripts. No ads, no selling data. The privacy policy has the details.

Your next list is one sentence away.
