iPhone task list for Gmail users
Tuesday, December 16th, 2008 | Author: admin
So you’re unhappy with the omission of a task list or To-do on your iPhone huh? I was too, until I did this:
In Gmail create a filter named _Task_List_ and also a Label with the same name.
For ”Has the words” I used _TASK as the keyword.
In the options select archive and apply the label that you created with the same name.
Now email yourself a task by putting the word “_Task” in the body of the message and task on the subject. Check your email on your iPhone and you’ll find your _Task_List_ folder and within it your tasks. (You might have to check folder “All Mail” before the task folder appears)
Here’s the “Task” Folder
Here are some sample tasks with the task on the Subject or message body
Thats it!

If you use Apple Mail and use subfolders this does not work BUT if you name the folder INBOX/A_Task_List then it works.
absolutely brilliant. thank you so much
brilliant yes, able to get it to work so far. no.
Where you getting stuck? does the new folder show up on your iphone?
If it doesn’t yet, re-start your iPhone and check email again.
