Any Task

Unlock the full potential of your Obsidian tasks. Any Task renders every task marker as a beautiful, theme-aware checkbox, giving you the freedom to use any character to categorize your workflow.

Whether you're tracking progress with /, scheduling with >, or marking urgency with !, Any Task ensures these markers aren't just plain text—they are fully rendered, interactive checkboxes that look like a native part of your chosen theme.
