Reminders: Disable pop up
Can you make an option that will allow us to disable all disable pop up notifications with one button?
With changes coming to Android Q, the pop up will be adapted to show only when tapping the reminder’s notification :)
As Any.do is always optimized to comply with the latest Android version, we will not be expanding this compatibility to previous Android version.

Why are the Any.do team ignoring this very important problem!?!
I must say I really like this app, but with this extremely annoying popup reminder interrupting important things, really makes me wanna find another app to manage my tasks.
If I need to record a video for a long time, I actually have to delete the app in order to make sure that no reminders will suddenly interrupt my recording.
PLEASE help us out here! :´-(

If I show someone something on my phone I'm often scared that a any do memory comes on the display that I don't want to see everybody.

This should be reported to the Android team as violating app design rules. Any.do does not have "draw over" privileges or "popup" privileges yet is popping up and drawing over other apps. They must be using an undocumented API.

Black List or Do not disturb... call it whatever you want but this is really URGENT... i don't want to be "reminded" of anything when i'm driving or taking a photo or writing a message... really folks ¿¿¿it's that hard to put a fu***** "don't show pop-up when this app's are working" ???? ... i don't think so... i just think you don't care about our safety, you wait until someone crash his car into a wall because of those dam pop-up's and you get a lawsuit.. the you will run like hell to add the "Do not disturb option".

There should be an option to set task notifications default status to on or off. It currently defaults to on. Worse... anytime I edit the time/date or reoccurrence of a task it automatically turns notifications on again. The later is surely a bug.

Please disable the pop-up notification, it is unnecessary on the smartphone.

Change the position on screen

Having pop ups show up over certain applications (like navigation apps) is annoying and can be dangerous if it distracts the driver.
Could we have an option to either manually hide pop ups for certain apps, automatically prevent pop ups for certain apps (waze, Navigation, etc.), or make those notifications pop under (behind) navigation apps?

The app will be perfect if we were able to choose if our reminders r gonna pop up on the screen or not! I'm getting pissed of when I'm recording an audio and then the reminder pops up and I lose all that I've said. Or when I'm typing something on a message, then the reminder pops up and I accidentally check the "done" button just because it entered on my way.
PLEASE RELEASE THIS OPTION FOR US!!!

(I'm just reviving the issue since we still dont have it in android yet though the thread says it's been released.)
When you mark a task with a reminder ON, the task is notified in the notification panel/drop-down/bar and also there appears a huge PopUp which covers half the screen.
This popUp can sometimes be quite irritating when you are in the middle of some other task on your phone.
Example: You are touring, and you want to click a quick picture with your phone. When you turn on camera instantly, you are unable to click the screen camera, because the AnyDo PopUP just blocked half your screen! And now the photo moment has passed!
(Happened to me several times)The only option right now is to disable reminders completely, which doesn't serve the purpose for the app.

A button that disables the pop up notification at the homescreen through every tasks because it makes the phone a little laggy, and it's really annoying.
if we can just use our phone's notification center instead of that feature, please, -

Yes, I also support this suggestion.

Yes! Vote this up!
To be sure, I DO like the popup when I need it because I can tap whatever preference I need. Problem is if I need to get to something else immediately or I'm already using the phone for something, it interrupts and blocks it as we already know. So lovely to tap Done or Dismiss on a task while I'm trying to TYPE!!!
THEN, if you just repeatedly tap outside the popups to get to what you're trying to do, they go to the notification bar. Okay, no problem there I guess...UNTIL you wanna go back and take care of them.
THEEEENNNNN, you gotta tap on EACH and EVERY one...one at a time...to get the popups. Why not one single notification no matter if it's one or multiple popus? Tap it and all the popups appear again, one behind the other, as they do now when you turn your phone on.
Also that, but if the app could detect the phone is currently on (let alone being used) that it just puts popups directly to the notification bar with that one-tap feature I proposed.
Thanks.

I would like the option to restrict reminders/notifications to the notification shade in Android. Marking tasks completed or snoozing them could be embedded in each notification.
I would also like some consistency in the options for snoozing.
Please add the option to only show reminders in the notification shade instead of popping up on the bottom of the phone screen.

Strongly agree, I've only had the app a few days and already it blocked my Maps while driving on the highway.

The reminder popups block the view of my navigation apps (Google Maps/Waze), I'd have to tap snooze to dismiss it (even worse when there are multiple popups). It is dangerous to tap on my phone while I'm on the wheels, I have to keep my eyes on the road! This has occurred to me few times. Hope there is a setting to disable popups when there's a navigation app running.

Keep the notification popup behind the on-screen keyboard or move it to the top while the keyboard is being used. You have no idea how many times I accidentally checked a task because I was typing while it popped up and then forgot which task it was so I had to go through all the completed tasks to figure out what I was supposed to do at that time!

Reminder pop-ups are very annoying in this app. Examples include using phone cam, phone dialer, and other apps where user is engaged in use of keyboard or touch screen of phone. This app even interrupts user adding or modifying Any Do reminders. This app would be much improved if the reminder pop-ups did not happen while user is actively using or touching keyboard, or the camera or phone is in use.
