We've just released version 1.1.0 (see the blog post) which includes widget customization options.
To customize a widget, simply add a widget to your home screen (choose between the 2x2 and 3x3 options) and you'll be prompted to select what the widget shows (choose tasks due today, all tasks, or a specific list, which can be a Smart List).
We hope that you enjoy this update, and of course we welcome additional feedback/suggestions on widgets. :) If you encounter any widget issues, please let us know.
Thanks!

says:Woo Hoo! (is that how you spell it?)
Now my tasks fit comfortably next to my cal widget and I am happy.
Great feature and extra points for being able to pick what is displayed.
Now, one suggestion.
Can I please have an option to turn off the day of week / date display at the top of the widget. If it were all i was looking at it would be very useful. But since I have it next to my Cal widget it's a bit redundant. Then I would be able to see even more tasks in my 2x2 widget.
Thanks

This is great. I went from running 0 RTM widgets, to running 2 RTM widgets immediately.

says:First of all, thank you for the update.
However, I would be even more happy if there are other sizes like 4x2 it will be even better. Actually is it possible to have all the ranges from 1x2, 2x2(done), 3x2, 4x2 til 4x4 so people can just choose whatever the size they want. For me, I like symmetry so I would only choose even numbers but 2x2 is kind of small to me...so if there will be a 4x2 it will be closer to perfect...
Anyway, still appreciate for more user-friendly work.

says:I like the widget but it would be really cool if there was an option to make it only display tasks that need to be done in the current location. The widget would be a great place to show those tasks for people who don't like having the location Alert pop up in their notification bar, but still want to see what needs to be done.
Keep up the great work!

says:@chudified: easy. Create a smart list with locatedWithin:"500 m" or whatever tolerance you want on the location. Save it as "Local" or something. Then use that smart list to feed the widget.

says:On the HTC Hero the widget doesn't reload if there is a restart of the Home environment. I think this is a known difference where the HTC Sense UI sends a different signal than you were expected.
Is there a better place to report bugs like this?
Posted at 2:27pm on November 11, 2009
sdague, no, this is sufficient. I've added that to our list to investigate.
Posted at 2:55pm on November 12, 2009
says:I didn't see a way to have the widget use "tags" as the list...
Posted at 2:58pm on November 12, 2009
says:@sdague It's not anything that RTM should be concerned about, it is an HTC Sense bug that should be fixed in the next release. It affects other applications as well, especially ones that you update.
Posted at 4:46am on November 13, 2009
verxion, you would need to create a Smart List that searches for that tag; you could then use the Smart List as your widget.

says:First off, I'd like to say that the RTM widget is fantastic. I don't know how I got by without it!
I'd also like to second the comment by lazinase - I'd love a 4x size options because I also like the symmetry but 2x2 is too small. A 4x3 would be perfect for me because then I can have other time management apps underneath. Having said that, I was talking about this with a guy at work and he'd like a 4x1 which just shows the first task from the top of the today list.
Don't know if these are possible, but it would be great if they were. Other than that, it's awesome!

says:+1 for the 3x2 and 4x2 widgets please!
Posted at 9:43pm on November 21, 2009
says:+1 for other sizes as well. A 4x2 or 3x2 that was scrollable would be awesome!

Attempting to add the widget to my Droid. I get a Widget Settings screen, with nothing on it, the Save button is greyed out, and only the Cancel button is active. So, all I can do is Cancel out, which prevents the widget from being added. This is no help.

ms960, sounds like the screen isn't loading properly for some reason; you should see a combo box that lets you select what you want to show in the widget.
Could you try restarting your phone, or removing and reinstalling the app, to see if this corrects that problem?
Posted at 12:21pm on December 17, 2009
I don't use it because the sizes don't make sense for how I have my home screens setup. 4 by anything would work well - 4x2 and 4x3 would be best.
Posted at 12:42pm on December 18, 2009
says:I agree! I would love to see a Widget with a 4x?.....I currently devote a screen to my calendar and am looking for a widget to do the same. Please give us a few more options with the widget size.

says:How about the ability to show "nearby" list in the widget?
I don't really want to keep getting alerts when I have tasks I can do nearby. It would suit me more to have the widget show my nearby tasks, so I can just see at a glance when I look at the phone.
Would this be possible? It seems, with the locations settings in the app that all the required functionality is there.

says:I'd love a whole crate of milk (4x6) so I can have a page dedicated to mile but I I'd also like 1x4 so I can have this on my home screen to remind of whats up next

+1 for a suite of 4x? widgets
It would also be fantastic if you could skin or even just change the background so it could match other home page widgets.
Posted at 9:44am on January 15, 2010
odelaney,
You can add a widget for a Smart List that utilizes the locatedWithin: search operator to show only nearby tasks. Then you could turn off location alerts also.
Hope this helps!

Another +1 for the 4x widget set. I would love to see 4x3 and 4x2 available, with 4x3 being the one more likely to get used if I could only pick one.
Posted at 9:58pm on January 15, 2010
I would like to see 4x4 widget too, i have one free screen so why not :)

says:I too want a 4x2 or 4x3 widget. please please pretty please.

says:Just wondering if the 4x? widget is in the development plans? I found a way to get the full screen (at least on Droid), but not sure that the glitch will continue to work. For those who would like to have a full screen widget now. Here is what you can do, but first you will need open home.
If open home is installed select an empty screen. Turn phone into landscape mode and slide open keyboard. Place the 3x3 Widget on the screen. When you close keyboard and turn phone...the widget will fill the screen.
Hope this helps in the mean time.

says:I noticed the same behaviour as Jeff. I was actually quite pleased until I realised that the widget still limits the number of rows it shows based on the size it would expect from a 3x3 not a 4x4 widget.
Posted at 10:07am on February 23, 2010
I would like to see a 4x X widget, also a widget that allows quick adding of tasks.
Posted at 10:41pm on March 2, 2010
says:Please add more widget sizes!
Posted at 2:21pm on March 4, 2010
says:I have noticed that you can browse the tasks within the widget with the trackball, but you just can't click on them!
Is that the normal behaviour?
Posted at 5:04pm on March 10, 2010
isiryder,
Yes, that's normal; you can scan the list from there and tap the widget to open the app to edit them.
