To assign a task, start by clicking on the task to open the task editing panel. Under the name of the task, click on the Who field. You can either:
- Select a person from the list, which works well if you have shared the list with people
- Type the name or email of someone, even if they aren’t current Astrid users
Once a task is assigned, you should see the person’s picture in the check box in the center pane. You can click their picture to complete the task.
Advanced: You can choose to assign the task to No one if there is no one who currently has ownership. This can be really useful if you’re planning a trip and potluck and want to allow your friends to decide which tasks they would like to take on.
