Can’t wait for more calendar integrations. Looking forward to this development and its developer. ### 5/5 — Solved my problems how I was going to solve them! *2026-07-30, version 2.7.3* I use Obsidian as my note application and wanted to switch from Todoist for my task tracking to make sure I owned all my data. I knew about task notes but didn’t see a way of using obsidian to actually keep track of my tasks that worked well on mobile and could send notifications to remind me. I was planning to build an application from scratch to solve this problem, and had just made the repository when I discovered this app. It was literally just what I was about to build, already feature-rich, with solutions to things I hadn’t even yet discovered as problems! I won’t say this app is perfect, it’s still ironing out some things, but it has given me control over how I manage my todo list and is powerful enough to be able to keep up with all of the work I do. ### 5/5 — Fantastic app! *2026-07-28, version 2.7.3* I use task forge for everything and it has been a huge relief to have something so well integrated with my obsidian. Purchased it almost right away. ### 4/5 — Очень удобно *2026-07-10, version 2.7.2* Все замечательно, но когда в задаче выбираешь из выпадающего списка приоритет и т. п. он скрывается за клавиатурой телефона и сама клавиатура не убирается с экрана ### 5/5 — Marvelous concept. *2026-07-02, version 2.7.0* Ease of task setup, flexible multiple ways to structure tasks, and plain text portability are strong points in this app for me. Appreciate the comprehensive app idea. ### 5/5 — my projects thank you *2026-06-08, version 2.6.1* my TODOs are everywhere. thrown around random documents or "temporary" files. despite desperately needing to, in no world was i ever going to take the time to extract them to a proper task or project management app. i've dabbled in some task plugins to collect them all before, but i also greatly value good UX and pretty UIs, and unfortunately, all-but-one case couldn't meet my expectations without heavy manual customization. and the one that did, didn't work well on mobile. i don't have to compromise anymore. especially not on mobile. 😤 and it works well enough that i've transferred all of my non-project reminders over to it as well. dev seems to be pretty responsive, too, so that's always a huge plus. the only issue i've encountered is one i was expecting and the dev spelled out up front anyway: sometimes you need to open obsidian to sync everything. it happened two times before, but hasn't since i setup an automation to open obsidian daily. i'm not concerned. tl;dr it gives a lot of the power and customizability of a task management plugin without the manual work to setup good UX and UI ### 5/5 — Perfect *2026-06-05, version 2.6.1* I use the TaskNotes plugin, and this app is perfectly compatible with my setup. Premium is cheap and really worth it. Really nothing wrong with it in any way imo, I wish the best for its continued growth ### 5/5 — Well executed addition to Obsidian *2026-06-04, version 2.6.1* Task Forge is nicely done and has become my primary todo and calendar application. The author is responsive and the app clearly has potential to be a big player in the organizational management field. If you are using Obsidian this is worth evaluating. If you are using tasks in Obsidian this is pretty much essential. Strongly recommended. ### 5/5 — Incredible for organizing simple or complex workflows with ChatGPT or Claude *2026-05-25, version 2.6.1* This app may seem intimidating at first given the large number of features, so I recommend starting with the single document view. After using this for several weeks, it has massively simplified my life. Before I would use Google Calendar as my todo list and constantly need to move events/tasks. But now I can copy and paste all the tasks from obsidian onto an LLM like Claude that is connected to Google Calendar, so it can reason about it and make changes and schedule events. Highly recommended! ### 3/5 — Great app… in a vacuum. *2026-05-09, version 2.6.1* Pros: good features, great design, ease of use(kinda), reasonable price point, does what is advertised! Cons: poor performance, kinda buggy (especially with a large vault. Even excluding 95% of the files didn’t help. Also, if you have existing tasks that aren’t using any plugins, GOOD LUCK, because the only way to kind of make it work for you is to use the custom lists, which are behind the paywall. That alone isn’t enough of an issue to justify the poor review. It’s moreso a combination of all of them. Most importantly, I don’t want to finish going through the trouble of setting it up for my workflow during the free trial, only to pay for the software and still have to wait an abysmally long time just to do anything in the app. I also have some features that if they were added and the performance was improved, I would be more than willing to pay for the full version of the app. TL;DR: the poor performance (which I think might be due to a large file count) severely outweighs any benefits for me. ## Frequently asked questions about TaskForge ### What does TaskForge do?
