Wunderlist for Pokki: Troubleshooting Common Issues and Fixes

Migrating Your Tasks: Wunderlist for Pokki — Step‑by‑Step

Overview

A clear step‑by‑step guide to move your tasks from Wunderlist into Pokki (or to set up Wunderlist within Pokki), including preparation, export/import steps, and troubleshooting.

1. Prepare your Wunderlist data

  1. Back up your lists: In the Wunderlist web app, open Settings → Account → Export. Download the ZIP containing JSON files of your lists and tasks.
  2. Review exported files: Unzip and inspect JSON files to confirm lists, tasks, due dates, notes, and subtasks are present.

2. Decide migration direction

  • If Pokki supports Wunderlist integration: you can connect accounts and sync directly.
  • If Pokki does not have direct integration: you’ll import via a supported format (CSV/JSON) or use a third‑party intermediary (e.g., Todoist export/import, or a generic CSV converter).

3. Direct integration (if available)

  1. In Pokki, open the Wunderlist app tile or app settings.
  2. Choose Connect account and sign in to Wunderlist with your credentials.
  3. Authorize Pokki to access Wunderlist data.
  4. Select which lists to sync and confirm sync options (one‑way or two‑way).
  5. Verify tasks appear in Pokki; check due dates, notes, and subtasks.

4. Export → Import via CSV/JSON (manual)

  1. From Wunderlist export, convert JSON to CSV if Pokki requires CSV. Use a converter tool or script.
    • Map fields: title, notes, due_date, completed, list_name, priority, subtasks.
  2. In Pokki, open the task app’s import function and upload the CSV/JSON.
  3. Match fields in Pokki’s importer to your CSV columns.
  4. Run the import and verify lists and tasks.

5. Use a third‑party intermediary

  1. Export from Wunderlist.
  2. Import into an intermediary app that both Wunderlist and Pokki support (e.g., Todoist, Trello, or a cloud service).
  3. From that intermediary, export in a format Pokki accepts and then import into Pokki.

6. Post‑migration checks

  • Confirm task counts match for each list.
  • Spot‑check due dates, reminders, notes, subtasks, and attachments.
  • Check recurring tasks and priorities.
  • Verify task ownership and sharing settings if you use shared lists.

7. Troubleshooting

  • Missing tasks: Re‑export and compare counts; check for JSON parsing errors during conversion.
  • Incorrect dates/times: Check timezone settings in both apps; ensure date formats match (ISO 8601 recommended).
  • Subtasks lost: Ensure importer supports nested tasks; flatten subtasks into parent‑prefixed tasks if needed.
  • Attachments not moved: Download attachments from Wunderlist and manually add them in Pokki.

8. Rollback plan

Keep the Wunderlist export ZIP. If migration fails, reimport into a supported app or restore from your backup.

Tips

  • Migrate during low‑activity hours to avoid sync conflicts.
  • Test with one small list first.
  • Keep both apps installed until you confirm everything migrated correctly.

If you want, I can:

  • Provide a JSON→CSV mapping template, or
  • Create a small conversion script for the Wunderlist export format. Which would you prefer?
