Quick tip

If you've hit the 300-task limit for a project, we recommend splitting it into smaller projects. For example, if you have a “Books to Read” project, split it into smaller projects based on genre.

FAQ

We've landed on 500 to make sure that Todoist can sync quickly and successfully. More than 500 increases the time it takes to sync your data and creates the risk of a sync issue. That said, we're working to make our sync engine faster and aim to increase this limit.

Although you can only create one free team at a time, you can join as many teams as you want.

For now, it's not possible to increase any limits beyond those listed above.
