How Recurring Tasks Work

Quick Answer

Recurring tasks automatically repeat on a schedule (like monthly or yearly) so you don’t have to recreate them each time.

Step-by-Step

Set a Recurring Task

  1. Go to the Tasks tab
  2. Click Add Task
  3. Enter the task name (e.g., Replace air filter)
  4. Set a Due Date

  5. Enable Recurring (or Repeat)

    Choose how often it repeats:

    • Weekly
    • Monthly
    • Yearly
  6. Click Save

Make an Existing Task Recurring

  1. Go to the Tasks tab
  2. Open the task
  3. Enable Recurring
  4. Choose the repeat schedule
  5. Click Save

What to Expect

  • After you complete a recurring task, a new one will be created automatically
  • The next due date will be based on your selected schedule
  • You’ll always have the next occurrence ready to go

Common Issues

I don’t see the recurring option

Make sure you’re creating or editing a task.

The next task didn’t appear

Recurring tasks usually generate the next task after the current one is completed.

The timing feels off

Check the repeat schedule and due date settings.

Helpful Tip

Use recurring tasks for things like:

  • Air filters
  • Smoke alarm checks
  • Gutter cleaning
  • Seasonal maintenance

Set it once, and it takes care of itself.
