Todoist Repetitive Tasks
Using recurring and repeating tasks in Todoist is a great way to save a lot of time and to stay on top of all of your tasks that occur regularly, or at least more than once.
When setting up a task in Todoist, to make it recurring you fill out the task information as you normally would, but when it comes to the time / date field you make some small changes.

For example, if you want a daily reminder you would type in “every day” in the date field and it would become recurring every day (remember – every day is ever day, including weekends!). If you only want weekdays you would type in “every weekday”.
There’s lots of date formatting options that gives repeating tasks a lot of flexibility – you can find more of them here on the Todoist date formatting guide.
This is also important to know about if you are using IFTTT and Todoist – you’ll need to make sure you have your date formatting correct or you may run into some real issues.

Another area where date formatting for recurring tasks can come in handy is setting start and end dates.
As an example, let’s say you had a project with a new task that came up, but you only need reminders through the end of the week. If today was March 23 and Friday was March 25, you would type in “every day ending March 25”. You can also do this for starting dates to set up a recurring task in the future!

Well folks, the results are in. One clear cut winner for personal, repetitive tasks, while another app emerges as the top option for work-related projects. In this post I'll walk you through the ratings, then reveal the winning platform!
When I began this project, I outlined five criteria: UI/UX design, intuitive processes for creating and maintaining tasks/projects, handling repetitive tasks easily, the ability to share tasks with others, and enough features in the free version to be fully functional.
Weighting these five aspects is difficult, since anyone utilizing this is likely to have their own needs. What I was looking for out of these apps was the ability to organize daily, weekly, monthly, and seasonal routines so I would remember to do things that were both important and enjoyable to me. That means I did not want to experience limited amounts of stress operating the winning platform, and it had to handle repetitive tasks well. I am a sucker for beautiful designs, so the UI/UX was going to be important to me, though the mobile platform should be my primary focus, as these sorts of tasks are ones I handle with my phone when I step away from my formal work.
