Priorities and Order
Tasks can have a priority. In order to specify the priority of a task, you can append one of the “priority signifiers”, shown here in decreasing order of priority:
- ⏫ for high priority
- 🔼 for medium priority
- use no signifier to indicate no priority
- 🔽 for low priority
If a task has no priority at all, it is considered between low and medium priority. This means that the priority of 🔽 low tasks is considered lower than the priority of tasks without any specific priority. The idea is that you can easily filter out unimportant tasks without needing to assign a priority to all relevant tasks.
