The branch's documents describe a world where the vendored provider reached users. It never did, and several claims follow from that mistake. `ROADMAP.md`: - Phase 5's "**Breaking:** the authority and both custom permissions no longer exist — anyone who pointed DAVx5 at that authority loses it, and the release notes have to say so" is wrong in the way that *removes* work: they were added and deleted inside this unreleased cycle, so nobody could have pointed anything at them. The release notes must not warn about losing something that never shipped. The per-locale release-notes item went with it. - "Run the instrumented suite on a device … none has ever executed" was stale: 52 tests, 0 failures, Pixel 10 / API 36, 13 Aug. What is genuinely open is a re-run against the tip, since the 4 Sep commits reworked the store and added instrumented cases that have never run. Both now say so, with the ARM64 aapt exit-code trap noted where someone will hit it. - The device-verification item described upgrading from a v0.3.2 APK with seeded data, which cannot be the real path. Replaced with the four cases that matter, including the one that only exists on a device that side-loaded a dev build of this branch. - M6's Glance item claimed "deps present in build.gradle.kts" — not any more. Translations and the language picker shipped in 0.4.0 and are marked done. `OWN-STORE.md` gets a correction banner over "Migrating existing users" saying the premise is wrong, and a section for the copy that replaces it. `STORAGE-AND-SYNC.md`'s banner said the vendored-provider decision was "made, shipped, and then costed properly" — built, not shipped. `PRIVACY.md` had the opposite problem: it describes CalDAV sync, Nextcloud Login Flow v2, RFC 6764 discovery and a Keystore-held password, none of which exist in 1.0.0 — the app holds no `INTERNET` permission at all. The permissions section listed six it does not declare. Since it is a legal document users are sent to from Settings → About, section 4 is now marked as describing a planned feature, section 9 lists exactly what the manifest declares (and says what is *not* there), and the backup and crash-report sections no longer assume network access or sync bookkeeping. Kept forward-looking rather than cut, so it does not have to change underneath anyone when sync lands. **Worth a read before merging** — it is the one change here with legal weight. `fastlane/.../full_description.txt` still opened with "It works directly on an existing tasks provider (OpenTasks / tasks.org) … no own account, no own sync" as the app's premise. That is the F-Droid listing for a release whose headline is that it needs nothing installed. Rewritten, with the feature list and the no-internet-permission point that is now literally true. `README.md` and `ExportWriter`'s "ships in eleven locales" (it is three) follow.
Agendula
A modern Material 3 Expressive task app for Android.
Keeps your tasks on your device, or on top of a tasks provider you already use.
Open standards, no account required.
Agendula is the task-list sibling to Calendula.
Where Calendula is a pure front-end over Android's CalendarContract, Agendula
keeps its own store, designed around RFC 5545's VTODO — the same tasks DAVx5
(and SmoothSync, DecSync, …) sync out of your CalDAV server. It can also read and
write a tasks provider you already have, for anyone already syncing that way.
The name rhymes with its sibling on purpose: Agendula is agenda — Latin for
“things to be done” — given Calendula's -ula ending. Calendula keeps your days;
Agendula keeps your to-dos. (A Calendula flower head is botanically a cluster of
many small florets — so the two apps are florets of one bloom.)
Where your tasks live — your choice
| Where | Sync | Needs | |
|---|---|---|---|
| On your device (default) | Agendula's own database | none yet — CalDAV sync of our own is planned | nothing. No account, no permissions, no other app |
| In a provider you already use | OpenTasks or tasks.org | whatever syncs it for you — DAVx5 and friends | that app installed, and its read/write permission |
Agendula's own store is an ordinary app database — nothing is published to other apps, so there is no authority to clash over and no permission to grant. It coexists with OpenTasks rather than replacing it: installing one never breaks the other, and if you already sync through a provider, that keeps working exactly as it did.
Switching between the two moves nothing — each store keeps its own tasks — so Settings → Storage asks before it switches, and offers to copy a provider's tasks into Agendula's own store when you want to move over. The copy is taken once and the originals stay where they are; it is not an ongoing sync in either direction.
Recurring tasks are expanded per RFC 5545, and everything the schema does not model is round-tripped verbatim rather than dropped — so passing your tasks through Agendula does not quietly lose fields a server sent.
Your tasks are exportable as standard iCalendar .ics files at any time, because
data you can't take with you isn't really yours.
Status: backend complete, UI catching up. Storage, reads and writes, smart-list filtering, a self-scheduled reminder engine, and export are built and unit-tested. The Material 3 Expressive screens are being built on top, one at a time — the storage-mode picker and export screen are not there yet. See
docs/ROADMAP.mdfor status,docs/ARCHITECTURE.mdfor how it's built, anddocs/STORAGE-AND-SYNC.mdfor why storage works the way it does.
Sync sources (by design)
In external-provider mode Agendula works with anything that writes to that provider — DAVx5 (CalDAV), SmoothSync, CalDAV-Sync, DecSync CC, or any Android sync adapter — because it builds on the provider, not on any one sync app. Google Tasks / Microsoft To Do are out of scope by design (proprietary; they would mean owning a sync stack). Open standards — CalDAV / iCalendar / DecSync — are the lane.
Translations
Agendula ships in English so far, and would like not to. Translations are managed on a self-hosted Weblate, and partial ones are fine — an untranslated string simply falls back to English.
No coding needed: register on the Weblate server, pick (or request) a language, and translate the strings in your browser. You can also reach this link in the app from the top of Settings → App language.
