Android: possibility to undo a change made via a widget?

[Lasse Pedersen]

Support:
Sometimes I have clicked complete or done some other change to a task by accident in a widget view (e.g. if the phone is lagging, or some other mishap). Without really spotting the task in question (and then it would disappear out of the view filter).

I have then opened the app normally, to try and undo the change, whatever it was. It seems I would not make this work. (I would then have to sort it out by looking through recent completions - first making sure I am in a "neutral" workspace without narrow filters).

But isn't the "undo" feature supposed to be able to catch this?

What are the "rules" for what it remembers and how (long)?

Hi, Lasse. I do not know the answers to your questions but I can tell you my workaround. I have a quarter-screen widget always on display. The view in the widget is called "Mod2day" and is thows all tasks where date and time of modification is on or after now-24h (in otherwords, modified within the last day). The view is sorted by date and tome of modification, most recent at the top. Whenever I loose control of my undo's I go here, everything I really want to undo is shown and is ready for edit. Doing thi\s instead of just hitting "undo" carries a much lower risk of undoing the wrong edit.
