This article refers to Reclaim 2.0 features and workflows. You can confirm your current app version in your User profile.
Connect Reclaim to Todoist to automatically schedule time for your to-dos, protect focus time, and plan your week around the work you actually need to complete.
With Todoist connected, Reclaim can sync your Todoist task list with Google Calendar and auto-schedule time to work on your to-dos, so projects and priorities are supported by real calendar time.
