Tags for tasks

[Erica Lewis 8]

Really like Evernote but have struggled to make it work really well as a GTD (getting things done) tool.

The newish tasks feature is an excellent step forward as I can now create tasks as I take notes. But one thing I can’t do is tag individual tasks, at the moment I can only tag the note. For example if I want to look at “next actions” when “@ work” I then have to review every task on a note to find the one(s) that should be actioned at work.  
 

i like having ready access to the notes to provide context if my task isn’t as clear as it should be so I don’t want to put each category of task on a new list, plus as things might have multiple tags that would become a very labourous task.

Being able to tag individual tasks would, I think be enormously helpful.

Thank you for considering this request.

Ability to add tags to tasks is probably major missing feature in Evernote.

Each task is embedded into a note. The current way of tagging is by tagging the note.

Tagging a note could be a solution, but when managing several tasks into one single note (for example for a project), then it could make sense to be able to tag tasks by tasks (for example with tags '+important' '-important' '+urgent' '-urgent' and filtering the Einsenhower matrix)

Tagging the note is what is currently possible.

It is of limited usability when there are several tasks in a note, and some of them are open in parallel.
