Scan Tasks from Image

Turn Any List into Tasks (Pro)

Photograph or import any list and Set turns it into tasks. It works with:

• Handwritten notes
• Whiteboards
• Printed lists
• Screenshots

What It Reads

Scan Tasks parses durations, dates, and times the way you write them, so a rough list becomes properly timed tasks:

• 45m sets a 45 minute duration
• (30 min) sets a 30 minute duration
• tomorrow schedules the task for tomorrow
• 10.15 - Jogging sets a 10:15 start time for a task called “Jogging”

On-Device Intelligence

Set uses on-device Apple Intelligence on supported devices, with smart parsing everywhere else, so scanning works across the lineup.

Review Before Anything Is Added

Nothing is created until you confirm. The review screen lets you:

• Edit titles, durations, and priorities
• Untick any lines you don’t want
• Choose a project for the new tasks
• Add them straight to Today

Where to Find It

Scan Tasks lives in the Today and project toolbars.

On Mac
