How to make a to-do list

  1. Launch Canva
    Open Canva and search “To-Do List” to start a new document.
  2. Choose a to-do list template
    Browse our collection from Canva Docs for the perfect to-do list template to match your needs. Find a layout for project management, business, travel, goals, or a simple daily to do list or weekly task list to run through your errands.
  3. Set your tasks and priorities
    Start adding tasks to your to-do list. First, set a title for a particular project or event. From there, it’s as easy as typing every activity in the document and adding a checkbox beside it. Organize your list from high to low priority or according to your project’s different stages or phases. You can even delegate to your team by adding comments to tag their names. Then, choose a stylish font and color to create a theme for your to-do list.
  4. Customize your to-do list
    Personalize your to-do list as you go on. Explore our design library to place visual cues on your list. A married couple emoji for your wedding planning, perhaps? Or a stock image of the beach for your weekend getaway. You can embed your other Canva projects for easy reference, use our Text to Image app for a unique idea, or speed things up with /Magic shortcuts to complete the whole picture for you.
  5. Download and share
    Easily share your to-do list with others and tick those checkboxes one by one. Invite your team or colleagues to collaborate with you on your doc via email or a design link. You can also download your to do list as a Canva Doc in PDF and set its paper size to your liking.
