Hi,

I’m desperate for a good Todo app with proper Android notifications support, or at lease web push notifications from the browser.

Best I could find was Vikunja, but email notifications aren’t very practical for multiple daily tasks with reminders.

Lately I’ve been trying to use Obsidian as my tracker for things to do, but it’s just not that convenient for me and doesn’t trigger notifications.

I know selfhosted push notifications isn’t a simple problem to solve, so I don’t have much hope got a solution.

I’m so close to going back to Todoist, which to me is the gold standard, you guys are my last attempt 🙏

    Baikal backend, DAVx5 android app and tasks.org android app.

    Thats what you want. All open source.

    Been using for notifications for a while and its great.

      If super productivity + nextcloud ends up not being a good fit, i’ll give this a try, thanks :)

      For anyone wondering, I’m still using Super Productivity (though only a small part of its features) so far and I love it so much.

      The sync with nextcloud is clean, and most importantly the way you add tasks is very todoist-like which is awesome.

    If you’d rather keep Vikunja as the backend and web UI, it has a CalDAV endpoint, so you can point DAVx5 at it and use Tasks.org or jtx Board on Android for the reminders themselves. That gets you native Android notifications without email, and you keep the web interface for planning. Vikunja’s CalDAV side is less mature than its web UI, though, so test whether due dates and reminders come across the way you expect before moving everything over.

    For notifications that aren’t tied to a task app (say, “remind me when X happens” from a script or Home Assistant), ntfy is the simplest self-hosted push to Android, as mentioned above.

    Also, if you wanted something more customized and jerry rigged, push notifications is very easy with ntfy. Its just a webhook so you could theoretically make anything a notification.

        The only weird setting I had the set was the background refresh interval. Mind defaulted off, which seems dumb.

        If you don’t set that, it won’t pick up new tasks that you added via the Web UI , and so you might not get notifications for those.

        Once I set that I’ve been getting notifications pretty consistently. Also check that you’ve allowed notifications for that app. And the task needs to have a due date set for the notification. Not sure if it also needs a reminder. I think I just do due date.
