# History

> Look back at the tasks, projects and plans you've completed, day by day

History lists everything you've completed — tasks, projects and plans — grouped by the day you
completed it, with the most recent day first. Keep scrolling and Sonto loads earlier days.
[Won't Do](https://help.sonto.app/reference/tasks.md#wont-do) tasks appear here too, marked with a ×.

## Open History

> [tab] Mac
>
> Choose `View` → `History…`, or press <kbd>Cmd</kbd> + <kbd>6</kbd>. You can also type "history" in
> [search](https://help.sonto.app/reference/search.md) (<kbd>Cmd</kbd> + <kbd>\\</kbd>).

> [tab] iPhone & iPad
>
> Type "history" in [search](https://help.sonto.app/reference/search.md). On iPad with a keyboard, it's also in the `View` menu.

## What you can do

History is for looking back, so you can't add or drag items here. You can:

* **Open a task or project** — click or tap its row.
* **Un-complete a task** — clear its checkbox.
* **Reopen a project or plan** — click or tap its progress pie.
* **Share or delete a project or plan** — open its context menu. Sonto asks you to confirm before
  deleting, because its tasks are deleted too.

## Show only projects and plans

To hide completed tasks, open the … menu and under **Show**, choose **Projects and Plans Only**.
Choose **All** to bring them back. Each device remembers its own choice.

## How long items stay

Items stay in History until you delete them or Sonto clears them automatically. To change when that
happens, choose **Auto-Clear Settings…** from the … menu, or see
[Settings → Tasks](https://help.sonto.app/reference/settings.md#tasks). Closed plans and the tasks in them are never cleared
automatically.

## Find something you completed

[Search](https://help.sonto.app/reference/search.md) results include a **History** section, so you can find a completed item
without scrolling back to its day.

## Availability

History is available on **Mac**, **iPhone** and **iPad**.
