    There is a way to access Task Coach items on Android through todo.txt format using the Free/Libre/Open app Simpletask
    see here:

    We understand that is not the same as a full Android Task Coach app.

    We will need someone to create a GPLv3+ licensed Android app for Task Coach in order to get a full client. Anyone interested in helping with this project should contact us and we’ll be happy to assist them.

    I just posted an Android version of TaskCoach on Google play. It's different than the alpha version on Google+. The app can in addition to viewing the files, also edit them. I'm also the developer of the Android Tdl TodoList, and the two are very similar. They both will receive support for editing more fields in the future. The web page with info is at https://sites.google.com/site/ajiget/programs/android-programs/taskcoach-for-android

    I'm the author of the Android version (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=hg.hgTdlList&feature=search_result#?t=W251bGwsMSwxLDEsImhnLmhnVGRsTGlzdCJd) of Abstract Spoon's todo list.
    Since both of these todo lists use xml files, it was fairly simple to use my existing code to write an Android app that can read a Task Coach file (some items still need some work).
    However, before I continue work to make it possible to edit the file, I have some questions:
    What is the status field used for?
    Also the id doesn't seem quite random? I noticed that the last part of it, seems to be the same for all the the items with an id.
    I assume the guid is specific for each task list? Although this doesn't seem quite random either? Android has an UUID class based on variant 2 of RFC 4122, the Leach-Salz variant. Would that be acceptable?
    Can I use the Task Coach icon for the app?
    I don't have much knowledge of python, so it would be great to get some clarification without having to investigate the source code for Task Coach.
