Recurring tasks
Repeat a task, edit one occurrence or the whole series, and number titles automatically.
Open a task and choose how it repeats: weekdays, daily, every two days, weekly, every two weeks, monthly or annually.
Editing a series
When you change a recurring task, choose what the change applies to:
- This task – only this occurrence.
- This & future – this one and everything after it. Earlier occurrences stay as they were.
- Linked tasks – every occurrence of the series.
Deleting works the same way: only this task, this and all future tasks, or all linked tasks.
Numbered and rotating titles
A recurring title can count or cycle with curly braces:
| Title | Becomes |
|---|---|
Chapter {1} | Chapter 1, Chapter 2, Chapter 3 … |
Lesson {12} | Lesson 12, Lesson 13, Lesson 14 … |
Week {n} | Week 1, Week 2, Week 3 … |
Page {n*10} | Page 10, Page 20, Page 30 … |
Run {n+4} | Run 5, Run 6, Run 7 … |
Workout {Legs|Push|Pull} | Workout Legs, Workout Push, Workout Pull, Workout Legs … |
Deleting one occurrence never renumbers the others, so "Chapter 7" stays chapter 7.
Good to know
- Recurring tasks can't be put on a shelf.
- Unfinished-task automation never moves a recurring task: a missed occurrence stays on its day.
