  2. Reset sub-tasks with recurring parent task

    It would be useful to be able to reset all sub-tasks when a recurring parent task is completed. For example, if you have a "Laundry" task that recurs twice a week with sub-tasks "wash", "dry", "fold", it would be ideal for all of those sub-tasks to be marked incomplete after the parent task is completed.

  3. Make recurring tasks reliable

    Kudos to the team for shipping recurring tasks! Although, right now I don't have the confidence in being able to reliably use recurring tasks. The problem: I have a number of recurring tasks that I never want the next recurring task data to change, especially those with subtasks. Right now, Superlist doesn't create a new tasks as a recurring task date becomes active. This is problematic because if I moved the "active" recurring task due date to the next day or two it changes the next instance to the incorrect date. I usually will change the date of a task using google calendar to the current day if i havent completed it. Sometimes this may take a day or two to complete. Sub-tasks are also not reset on the next "instance" of a recurring tasks once it is completed. Potential solution: When the next instance of a recurring tasks becomes active, duplicate the task into a new instance and treat it as a standalone task. This is how Things and Todoist works and has never been an issue. It works really really well. Honestly, this is one of those things that make me consider switching back to Todoist while Superlist becomes more mature. I love Superlist. I want it to succeed. But this is a deal breaker for me :/

  4. See recurring tasks under completed, if an instance was completed

    Right now none of my completed recurring tasks that I complete an instance of is shown under Completed. This is because when I mark a recurring task as completed, it doesn't actually mark it as completed, it simply changes the due date. This is not how I imagined recurring tasks to work! Because it's not really an instance but just the same task with a new due date, it creates problems such as: Percieved: Changing the due date of one 'instance' of a task changes it for all of themPercieved: Subtasks are not reset once a recurring task is 'completed'.Any changes to the recurring task, changes it for all 'instances' of it. Attached you'll find a screenshot of the log for a recurring task.

  5. Calendar view for tasks

    I find it useful to see my tasks spread in a calendar, especially in weekly view, so I can make sure I have a healthy workload in my hands each day.

  7. Repeat "after completion"

    For example: "Repeat after completion" "Repeat X days, weeks, months... after previous item is checked off". For bills to send or training items it makes sense to create a new tasks when previous is completed with a parametre.

  8. Save lists as templates

    Custom templates with pre-built or enabled macros can simplify calculating income and expenses. A prime example of this is the ClickUP Personal Budget template. https://clickup.com/templates/personal-budget-t-180546810 But imagine if Superlist had a dedicated templates page where the community could upload their custom templates. This would not only encourage creativity but also provide a variety of options for users. Moreover, if Superlist had an in-app feature to access these templates easily, it would make the user experience even more seamless and efficient.

  10. Smart lists

    Create lists that would basically just be a named saved filter in the sidebar. Setup features could include labels, statuses, dates, assignment, etc. Really filtration by any combination of properties to generate the contents of the list.

  15. Optimize behavior of recurring tasks and subtasks

    It would be great if a recurring (main-)task (e.g. weekly) would be displayed in the day view without the recurring subtasks within it (which are e.g. weekly, bi-weekly or monthly) appearing as a separate task in the day view. In my case, it is a weekly recurring task with 3 subtasks that recur weekly, monthly and every 90 days. On the date when they are all due, I would have 4 tasks in the day view, unnecessarily displayed separately.
