Expose a server
Compatible clients can connect into TapTidy directly when you want your task system to be the source they talk to.
Feature
A task manager with an actual open-standard sync story, not just another closed island.
TapTidy can act as both a CalDAV server and a CalDAV client, which means your tasks can connect with compatible tools without an extra bridge service sitting in the middle.
CalDAV is part of TapTidy Pro.
Connect outward
TapTidy can also connect outward as a client, which makes the sync story more flexible than the usual proprietary-only approach.
Keep portability
Open standards matter because they preserve exit paths and interop choices when a product category gets more closed over time.
Why it matters
Most task apps talk about sync as a convenience feature. CalDAV also makes it a sovereignty feature.
When a product only supports its own cloud, the switching cost rises over time. A standards-based sync layer gives you more room to keep using the tools and workflows that already fit the rest of your stack.
Useful for mixed-device households
Open sync is especially useful when the household or team is not living inside one vendor's platform boundaries.
Useful for long-term portability
The real value often shows up later, when you want options instead of discovering that every important workflow depends on one closed service.
