You can import both tasks and notes from Toodledo. To do that, simply:

 

1.Export data from Toodledo to a file in Comma Separated Values (CSV) format.
2.Then use File - Import Wizard in Swift To-Do List 8 to import that exported file.

 

Here is a step-by-step guide for importing tasks from Toodledo into Swift To-Do List 8:

 

Step 1: Log into your Toodledo account

 

Step 2: Click "Tools & Services"

Click the Tools & Services link located in the left blue sidebar.

 

Step 3: Choose the CSV/Import export

Scroll down to the Importing and Exporting Data section and click More details... below the CSV Import / Export.

 

Step 4: Click "Download CSV file"

Click "Download CSV file" in the CSV Tasks Export section. Save the file to a location where you can find it easily, eg. on your desktop.

 

Now it's time to fire up Swift To-Do List 8!

 

Step 5: Open Swift To-Do List 8

Open Swift To-Do List 8 and use File - Import Wizard. This wizard has 4 easy steps.

 

In step 1, browse for the file you've just exported out of Toodledo.

 

You usually do not have to change anything in step 2.

 

In step 3, you usually do not have to change anything either. The imported fields can be mapped in this step. Most fields will be mapped automatically, but you can do some manual changes. To do that, just click the field names in the Swift To-Do List 8 column.
Toodledo might have exported some redundant fields, you can just ignore these.
The import is quite flexible, so you can customize the mapping to your full satisfaction.
If Swift To-Do List 8 doesn't recognize the date formats, click the Field Formats... button to specify the date formats of the imported file.

 

In step 4, select the target to-do list in which the newly imported tasks should be placed.
If you check "Create Sub To-Do Lists", then new to-do lists will be created and the imported tasks placed into them, otherwise, all imported tasks will be placed into a single to-do list. (One of the imported fields needs to be mapped to "To-Do List" if you want to use this option.)

 

And that's it - click Finish and relax while your tasks are imported, you are done!
