Welcome! This guide is intended as a brief introduction to using Remember The Milk. For additional information, please see the FAQ.
On the Overview, you can click on Always skip this page to go straight to the Tasks.
The overview is the first screen that you'll see when you login. It's a handy way to see what's due today and tomorrow, and the things you've missed. Click on the Weekly Planner to see upcoming tasks in a printable format.

You can use the keyboard shortcuts to manage tasks quickly. Learn more about keyboard shortcuts.
Click on Continue to Tasks on the overview, or the Tasks link on the top right, to access the tasks screen. This is where you'll manage your tasks. You'll see a list of incomplete tasks, with a checkbox next to each task name.

When a task is checked, it's selected so that you can perform actions on it. You can click the Complete or Postpone buttons above the list, or use the More Actions dropdown to access more options such as Setting Priorities. You can select multiple tasks to perform actions on several tasks at once.

To add a new task, click on Add Task, type in the name for your task, and then press enter.

You can edit the properties for multiple tasks at once with multi-edit mode. Learn more.
Your new task will automatically be selected, so you can now edit its properties using the task details box on the right. Click on the Due field to set the task's due date -- you can enter due dates such as Aug 5, tomorrow, or next Tuesday.

Your default list is the first list displayed when you sign in. Learn more about default lists.
You'll start with five lists in your account: Inbox, Personal, Work, Study, and Sent. The Inbox is just like your email inbox -- except that instead of emails, you'll receive tasks. The Sent list stores the tasks that you've sent to other users. You can create as many lists as you need.
You can customize your lists by going to the Settings screen, then clicking on the Lists tab. Here you can add, delete, rename, and archive lists. To add a new list, click on Add List, type in the name for your list, and then press enter.

You can set the time that your daily reminders are sent, e.g. 12am or 9am.
You can receive reminders for tasks with due dates. Before you can start receiving reminders, you should set your timezone on the Settings screen. Then, click on the Reminders tab to set your reminder preferences. Learn more about setting reminder preferences.
You can receive a reminder on the day the task is due, as well as before the task is due (e.g. 1 day or 2 weeks before the due date).

You can also receive a reminder at the time the task is due, as well as before the task is due (e.g. 10 minutes or 1 hour before the due time).

You can choose to receive reminders via email, SMS, and instant messenger (AIM, Gadu-Gadu, Google Talk, ICQ, Jabber, MSN, Skype and Yahoo! are all supported). You can set new reminder methods by clicking on Add Details on the Reminders screen, and then choosing the appropriate option. Learn more about setting reminder methods.

Remember The Milk has your own personal tasks search engine. The basic search allows you to enter words that appear in the name of the task you want to locate. Click in the search box, type in the word (or multiple words) that you're looking for, and then press enter. Learn more about searching.

The powerful advanced search feature allows you to find tasks matching other criteria. For example, you can find tasks that you've shared with Bob T. Monkey that are high priority and due in the upcoming week and tagged with 'bananas'. You can also use advanced search operators for more complex searches.

Smart Lists are special lists that are created based on criteria that you define, and are automatically updated as your tasks change. For example, you can create Smart Lists that contain all of your tasks with high priority, tasks due this month, or tasks tagged with 'supermarket'. Learn more about Smart Lists.

You can use the full-featured mobile version to manage your tasks wherever you are. Learn more about mobile access.
You can import entire lists via email too. Learn more about importing lists.
Adding tasks is as simple as firing off an email (even from your phone). When you sign up, you're assigned a unique email address -- emails sent to this address are automatically converted into tasks and appear in your Inbox. Learn more about adding tasks via email.
See an important date on the web? Add it to your list with Quick Add. When you see a date or time you want to remember, just highlight it and click the "Add to RTM!" bookmark. Learn more about using Quick Add to add tasks from the web.
You can use the Atom/RSS feeds to keep track of your tasks with your aggregator, and use the iCalendar feeds to subscribe to and access your lists from various calendar software.
See the Services section to find out how you can manage your tasks from within Google Calendar, add a Remember The Milk gadget to your iGoogle or Netvibes start page, access your tasks on your Dashboard, manage your tasks offline, and more.
