Send emails to Plancake

A Plancake email address is created for every user when they register.

An example of a Plancake email address is:
inbox_niki.jones_15c522@plancakebox.com

That email address is not very easy to remember but you can simply save it in your email client.

You can send emails to your Plancake email address. The subject of that email will be added to your Inbox as a task and the body of the email (if any) will be attached as a note for that task.

It may take up to 2-3 minutes for Plancake to create the task.


If you are on the move or away from your Plancake, you can just send an email having the task you want to remember as subject. Then, when you log in into your Plancake account you will be able to organize that task.
And you can even use shortcuts for a due date and tags in the subject of the email!

If your device supports voice commands you will be probably able to add tasks using your voice via this service.

If your email automatically contains a signature, Plancake will probably consider that as part of the note for the task.
To avoid this, simply include '%%' on a line by itself before your signature, and everything after this line will be ignored. See this example:

The map is located under Adam's bed. The name of the hotel should be
written on the envelope underneath the book.
%%
Mr White Christmas
Managing Director

If you don't need any task note but your email client forces you to set an email body, just use one of these strings (they won't be added as a note):

Anybody who knows your Plancake email address can add tasks to your Inbox. This is useful if you wish to allow your partner, PA or work colleague to send you tasks. However, be careful not to publicly disclose your Plancake email address otherwise strangers could add tasks to your Inbox.
