Adding new task to "Doit now"

There does not seem to be a simple way to create a new task and add to the top of Today's list - the "Doit now" section.
I have to add the item to Today, find it at the bottom of my Today list, then select the Doit now button.
In order to create a new to do and add it to the top of Today's list in one step, you could add the Doit now button to the new task entry box.

Thank you,

Julian

We've made a record of it and will seriously consider it.

For now, our suggestion is collecting first and then processing and organizing, just as describe in GTD written by David Allen.

Shall you need any help or have additional questions, please feel free to contact us.

Thank you for your feedback and support.

David and his senior staff recommend collecting and processing in one step when appropriate.
For example, if I add a new task such as "buy bread" and that needs to be done today on my way home from work, it would be added and assigned to "today" with context "shopping" in one step. Adding that as a new task (collecting) and then waiting to process (perhaps that night) is inefficient for many tasks and would not help at all in reminding me what I need to do on the way home.
The same holds true for collecting and processing directly into "someday" etc.
