A Complete Guide to the Home, List, Plan, and Settings Tabs in To Do List RUIX
To Do List RUIX organizes its main features into four tabs: Home, List, Plan, and Settings.
Each tab has a different purpose. Home is where you work with tasks by date, List helps you review task records, Plan supports monthly goals and summaries, and Settings controls app preferences.
Understanding this navigation makes it easier to move from daily action to long-term planning without searching through unrelated screens.
In this guide, you will learn what each tab does, when to use it, and how the four tabs work together in a practical productivity routine.
Why the Four-Tab Layout Is Useful
A task app needs to support more than one type of activity.
During the day, you may need to add a task quickly. Later, you may want to search older records, review a monthly summary, or change the theme.
The four-tab layout separates these activities clearly:
Home: Manage tasks on calendar dates.
List: Find and review task records.
Plan: Set direction and review progress.
Settings: Choose app preferences and manage local records.
You can move between the tabs using the navigation bar at the bottom of the app.
The Home Tab: Manage Daily Tasks by Date
The Home tab is the main starting point for everyday task management.
It contains the Home calendar, which uses a Sunday-first layout. Select a date to view or manage the tasks connected to that day.
Use the Home tab when you want to:
Add a task to a selected date
Edit an existing task
Mark a finished task complete
Delete a task that is no longer required
Choose Low, Medium, or High priority
Assign a default or custom category
Review tasks for another calendar date
How to Use the Home Tab
Tap Home in the bottom navigation bar.
Check the current month on the calendar.
Select the date you want to manage.
Review the tasks already connected to that date.
Add, edit, complete, or delete tasks as needed.
Always confirm the selected date before adding a task. This helps prevent a reminder from being stored under the wrong day.
Example of Using the Home Tab
Imagine that you are planning Thursday.
Select Thursday on the calendar and add:
Submit the weekly report
Buy groceries after work
Exercise for thirty minutes
You can assign the report a High priority, place the grocery task in a personal category, and place the exercise task in a health category.
As you finish the work, return to the selected date and mark each completed task accurately.
The List Tab: Review and Find Task Records
The List tab is useful when you want to work with task records in a list instead of moving through individual calendar dates.
Use it to review locally managed task information and find the records you need.
Depending on what you are looking for, the List tab can support:
Reviewing task records together
Searching for a task by its text
Filtering tasks by category
Checking completed and unfinished work
Finding a task that needs to be edited or reviewed
How to Use the List Tab
Tap List in the bottom navigation bar.
Review the available task records.
Use task search when you know part of the task name.
Use category filtering when you want to see one area of responsibility.
Open the relevant record when you need more information.
Example of Using Search and Category Filtering
Suppose you remember creating a task about a monthly report but do not remember its date.
Open the List tab and search for monthly report.
If your list contains many similar records, apply the relevant work category to narrow the results.
This is faster than opening several dates on the Home calendar one at a time.
The Plan Tab: Connect Daily Work to Monthly Direction
The Plan tab is where short daily tasks connect to broader monthly goals.
Use the Plan tab for confirmed planning and review features such as:
Monthly Focus
Monthly Goals
Goal reasons
Goal Result
Goal Achieved and Goal Not Achieved
Monthly Plan Summary
Monthly Task Summary
Yearly Task Summary
Category Task Review
The Plan tab helps you look beyond today and understand whether your daily actions support a larger result.
How to Use the Plan Tab
Tap Plan in the bottom navigation bar.
Select the month you want to plan or review.
Create a clear Monthly Focus.
Add a specific Monthly Goal and its reason.
Return during the month to review your plan and task progress.
At the end of the month, record the Goal Result honestly.
Use the available summaries and reviews to prepare the next month.
Example of Using the Plan Tab
Your Monthly Focus might be:
Build a consistent study routine
Your Monthly Goal might be:
Complete four course chapters this month
Your goal reason might explain that completing the chapters prepares you for an examination.
You can then add smaller supporting tasks on the Home calendar, such as reading a chapter section or completing practice questions.
At the end of the month, review the result and select Goal Achieved or Goal Not Achieved based on what you completed.
The Settings Tab: Choose How the App Works for You
The Settings tab contains preferences and management options that do not need to remain on the daily task screens.
Use Settings when you want to:
Choose Light mode
Choose Dark mode
Follow the System theme
How to Change the Theme
Tap Settings.
Open the theme setting.
Select Light, Dark, or System.
Check that the app appearance matches your choice.
Light mode can be useful in bright surroundings, while Dark mode may be more comfortable in lower light. System follows the theme selected on your device.
How the Four Tabs Work Together
The four tabs are most useful when they are treated as one connected workflow.
Use Plan to choose a monthly direction.
Use Home to turn that direction into dated tasks.
Use List to search, filter, and review your task records.
Return to Plan to review summaries and the final goal result.
Use Settings whenever you want to adjust the display or app preferences.
Practical Weekly Workflow
At the beginning of the week, open Plan and review the current Monthly Focus and Monthly Goal.
Next, open Home and add the supporting tasks to the dates when you can realistically complete them.
During the week, use Home to update and complete tasks. Use List when you need to search for a specific record or focus on one category.
At the end of the week, return to Plan and check whether your completed tasks are moving the monthly goal forward.
Tips for Moving Between Tabs Efficiently
Start with your current purpose. Choose Home for dated action, List for records, Plan for direction, and Settings for preferences.
Avoid creating unclear tasks. Clear task names make both the Home and List tabs easier to use.
Use categories consistently. Reliable categories improve filtering and Category Task Review.
Connect plans to dates. A Monthly Goal becomes more practical when it is supported by tasks on the Home calendar.
Review summaries regularly. Monthly and yearly summaries are most useful when task completion records remain accurate.
Use voice when typing is inconvenient. Voice recording and listening can support faster task entry and review.
Final Thoughts
Home, List, Plan, and Settings each serve a clear purpose in To Do List RUIX.
Home manages daily tasks by date. List helps you find and review task records. Plan supports monthly direction, goals, summaries, and results. Settings controls themes and other app preferences.
Once you understand these four tabs, you can move smoothly from planning a goal to completing daily tasks and reviewing the final result.
