I've got two contradictory requirements here. I have a "Non-project tasks" note, which is a long list of standalone tasks. I would be happy for those to get hidden once completed. At the moment I either move them to an archive note, or delete them completely. I also have project notes (in a GTD-like manner) when I'm doing something that involves several tasks. I don't want those tasks to disappear or move to the bottom of the note, as I often put comments about each one. I can see a history of the tasks in a project, with other useful details. That's one of the reasons I like the Evernote way of doing tasks. I'd be happy with toggling task visibility in a note, as long as they reappear in the right place...

I'm a fan of the new tasks feature, but I found that any task-related activities slowed the Android app down to the point of being unusable. So, I removed the calendar and tasks widgets from the home screen and EN worked OK. With the 10.19 Android release, performance of tasks on the home screen has improved dramatically on my device (a Huawei P20 Pro). The home screen refreshes in under a second. I can do crazy things like adding tasks, or completing them without them mysteriously reappearing a few seconds later. The dedicated Tasks screens can still take 20-30 seconds to refresh, but that's less of a problem because I use the Windows application to do most of the heavy-duty task management. When I'm out and about I generally just use the home page, which is now a lot quicker. So far, so good!

Hi, I keep descriptions in the note. I've got a "Projects and Tasks" notebook. I have one note in there per project. All (or certainly most) of the tasks for a project are on one note, and I make comments in that note. I've also got a Project Reference notebook. I use a tag like "..Redesign my site" and tag everything for that project. Then I can filter on the tag and see everything for the project. Works for me - but I just use it for personal projects, not when I'm working for my employer. (They don't let me use Evernote...) What I would like to do is have a tag on each task, so I could see all tasks across all projects in certain situations, e.g. "@Shops", "@Phone" etc. I can use a flag for some of that, but I would prefer more options!
