Errands
What Errands is
Errands is a free Linux desktop to-do application designed for people who prefer simplicity. It supports multiple task lists and lets users add, edit, remove and complete tasks and subtasks. Each task can have an accent color, and drag-and-drop reordering helps arrange items. The app imports .ics files and can synchronize tasks with Nextcloud or other CalDAV providers. The project says Nextcloud is the only provider known to work well, so other connections may not work reliably. Flatpak on Flathub is the only officially supported version, although Flathub labels the app Desktop & Mobile. Errands is MIT licensed, and Vlad Krupinski is named as maintainer on the GNOME app page. Bug reports go through GitHub, with logs and reproduction steps suggested when relevant. The Free plan costs nothing, and no trial is offered.

Errands suits Linux desktop users wanting straightforward lists, subtasks, colors and calendar synchronization. It is a fit for users comfortable installing the supported Flathub Flatpak.
