What you get
The sync is two-way and it is the whole list, not item by item. IRIS is the source of truth for wording; either side can complete or delete; anything new on either side crosses over.
Illustration. The confirmation is what Hey Even shows; the Todoist part happens next time IRIS is open.
- Spoken to-dos go out. “Hey Even, remember to send Dana the deck” — with the app closed — is a to-do in IRIS the next time you open it, and a task in Todoist a few seconds after that.
- Action items from meetings go out too. Every to-do IRIS pulls out of a conversation is on the same list, so it is in Todoist with the rest.
- Done anywhere is done everywhere. Tick it on your watch; it is ticked in IRIS. Delete it in IRIS; it is gone from Todoist.
- Tasks you add in Todoist come in — all of them, or only a filter you choose (“today”, “#Work”), so a shopping list does not have to show up on your lens.
Set it up
- Get your Todoist API tokenTodoist → Settings → Integrations → Developer → API token → Copy. It is a password: it lets anything holding it read and change your tasks.
- Paste it into IRISSettings → Connections → Todoist → Todoist API token. Pasting it is the on switch — there is no separate toggle. Tap Test Todoist connection.
- Optionally, narrow what comes inOnly import some tasks takes a Todoist filter —
today | overdue,#Work,@glasses. It changes what comes in only; everything IRIS has still goes out. - Point Hey Even at IRIS, if you have notPart one of the spreadsheet guide. Without it, to-dos still sync — you just add them in the app or from meetings rather than by voice with the app closed.
- Say one“Hey Even, remember to book the dentist.” Open IRIS; it is under To-dos. Open Todoist; it is there too.
Google Tasks instead? Same recipe, different card: Settings → Connections → Google Tasks → On. It uses the same Google sign-in as Drive exports, which means the one-time Google Cloud OAuth client — heavier than pasting a token, but the sync behaves identically.
Good to know
- Sync runs while IRIS is open — a few seconds after the list changes, every five minutes, and whenever the app comes back to the front. A to-do spoken with the app closed waits on the server and syncs the moment you open IRIS.
- Old Even app versions grab “remember to…” before IRIS hears it. Update the Even Realities app; until then, start with “code green,” and it always gets through.
- Timed reminders are a different thing. “Remind me at four” is emailed at four and is not a task. The reminders recipe turns those into tasks if you want them there too.
