What is SplenDO
SplenDO is a perfect to do list app for Android developed by Splend Apps. It is very convenient for managing all your tasks: you can create separate task lists and set up reminders for each task. The great advantage is that you can customize a lot of settings to your taste.
How to use SplenDO To Do List App on Android
How to create a task
There are several ways to do it in SplenDO:
1. Tap the “+” icon
This way allows you to assign due date, time and select a list.
2. Quick bar
Use this feature to quickly add a task in one click. In this case you will be able only to give a name. All other options will be set by default. The task will be added to the currently selected list without due date.
3. Batch Mode
This is the easy way to add several tasks at once to the current list. The thing is you don’t need to tap “New” and “Save” for each one. It can be very useful if you are afraid to forget your ideas while typing.
Tap on “Add in Batch Mode”:
Type all your tasks in the list and tap on “Save”:
All your tasks have been added to the list with one tap:
How to delete a task
There are also several ways to it.
1. Select a task by tapping and holding it and then tap the “Delete” icon:
2. Tap a task to go to its properties. Then tap the tripple dot icon and select “Delete”:
Lists
You can add tasks to different lists (such as “work”, “shopping”) or create your own lists. So you will never have a ridiculous mixture of completely dissimilar tasks like ‘buy milk’ and ‘find a job’ in one list.
To move a task to another list:
- Select a task.
- Tap on the “List” drop-down menu (or tap the icon on the right to create a new list):
- Select another list:
- Tap the Save icon:
How to set up a reminder for a task
If you want to create a reminder, follow these steps:
- tap on the task to enter its properties.
- specify the Due date and Time.
- tap on the Save icon.
- Go to Settings and choose when you wish to be notified about the task:
You will be reminded about your task on time. You can edit the task, set another time or mark it as finished:
Operating with a group of tasks
Tap and hold on a task to select it. In such a way you can mark several of them at once to delete them altogether or mark them as finished.
Synchronization with Google
SplenDO supports syncing with Google. If you wish to remove Google Account just go to “Settings” and select “Sync disabled” in “Sync mode”:
What I turned off In Splendo To Do List App
In general, I like default settings of the app. But nevertheless I changed a few of them.
- I have removed SplenDO from notification panel (Tap the gear icon and untick the flag “Status bar”)
- I have turned off the Day summary function (Tap the tripple dot icon, select “Settings”, set “Day summary” to “Disabled”)
- I have disabled the Voice feature, because I don’t want the voice to pronounce the name and the time of my task (Tap the tripple dot icon, select “Settings”, find the “Notifications” area and untick the checkbox named “Voice”)

I wanat to use it on desktop too. Do you have desktop version?
Please add it. Its very important. And alos Email function. I want to have an option in settings to have the task emaioled to me as a reminder. Thank you so much.
I agree so much! Please make an online version that syncs with the app! This app is amazing, but it would be so much better if I could also access it from my computer
Same here. Please add a desktop version.
I would like desktop version too. Please make it happened.
I love Splendo......Somehow I lost everything on my tablet??????
Please help!!!
I like the app. There is a large blank space at the bottom half of the page. I would like to use that area for comments or lists, but I cannot figure out how to make an entry there or raise the keyboard. Suggestions?
Is there a way to delete task lists I no longer need or can I rename them to new task lists?
Tap on the dots icon in the upper right corner and select "Task lists". Here you can delete or edit your lists.
I am using Splendo and really love it but I have a problem. After using Spendo for a few weeks, at my son's prompting, I loaded the Google Keep program. (Works similar to Spendo but has too many options-no simplicity.) Anyway, after uninstalling Goggle Keep, Splendo will no longer add tasks via voice command. This ruins the best part of Spendo for me. Can you help me turn the voice command back on? I did reinstall Splendo but it did not change it. I don't want to uninstall it because I would lose what I have on my lists . . . unless it is absolutely necessary. Thank you for your help.
I'm having the same problem. Did you ever figure out how to enable voice notifications? They worked fine for months, then stopped. I really need to "hear" the notifications again. Thanks.
Hello, I have the app installed already and I really like it a lot. But I have a big problem with it. Some of my Task Lists dispersar from the app. I sent emails to support asking how do I recover those task lists from my back up in google account but no answer yet. Searching from internet for any help, I found your page. My question is, do you know how to get those task lists back from the back up from google? I have very, very importan info and appointments there!
Please help.
Hi Magdiel,
My name is Robert. I had the same problem as you. Splendo actually deleted about 85 percent of all of the data I entered. Did you ever find out how to get your information back?
if so, could you write to me at
robert65tab@gmail.com
Thank you so much,
Robert
I need to have a hard copy of my lists and tasks. No way to send to my email. Please address or advise how to do this.
I used to use this app and loved it, but in the last few months, it has started using pop-up ads that play video and sound, that overrides your phone sound settings. Unfortunately, it is useless now, as I don't want music blasting out in a meeting!
I have exact same "surprises" on another SplendApps app where I use free version. You are absolutely right: pop-up full screen ads with loud sound (or with sound as such) are unacceptable. But the app is so good that I advise you to pay once and remove ads. I use paid version and I enjoy using it every day.
If SplendApps developers read this, please, consider removing shoking ads from free versions of your apps.
I want to sync Spendo with my Google calendar - When I add a task in Splendo, I wish that it should get reflected in my google calendar too. Is there a way to achieve this? Using the sync option in settings is not getting this done.
Aashaar, sorry, I don't use Google calendar. I advise you to ask your question on the app's page in the Play Store: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.splendapps.splendo
P.S. But can say that unfortunately I had problems with syncing SplenDO when I used the app with the same Google account on two different Android devices. After some time of using I found out that I have different quantity of tasks on my devices. Some tasks were already done but were displaying on one device, some new and important ones were missing on BOTH devices at all. I decided to remove the app from one Android device and since that time I don't have any mess. Everything seems to sync well.
