Improvements to repeat
Hamish
Using this as a holding space for repeat improvements
- Repeat should work for events. Notes too, I can't see an obvious use case for repeating notes but it adds no overhead.
- Should be able to end a repeat after x number of repeats, or on a particular date.
- Choose to update a repeat on current, future or all entries
- More flexibility with repeat options
- Choose wether tasks should repeat when complete, or when created
- If choosing repeat when complete, repeating weekly/monthly/yearly events should repeat according to their original repetition period i.e. weekly task should repeat as a weekly task even if it gets moved to a daily task
- Ensure that repetitions (especially events which have utc dates) work with DST

Also voting in favor of repeat events, it would be a good way to mark stuff like birthdays and etc.

I would like to add a request for complex repeat options—I think this falls under “more flexibility with repeat options”. I have some tasks and events that repeat on, for example, the first Tuesday of the month. Bullet currently can’t handle these cases.

As happen with tasks, repeat an event every week would be very usefull.

When scheduling an event, request to add recurring option with expire date/duration or indefinite and automatically show/add all future events on calendar.

Just got my hands on Bullet. Seems to be great.
Maybe I am missing something but when I set a task to repeat, for example, weekly, just the first occurrence is added. The next one appears only when I cancel the previous. Is it like it should be? I makes harder for a long term planning and lcommitmet

Right now thats its behavior, but I also think that putting all the repeating tasks would be better, so you can view your future task when planning in advance

Re: Repeating Notes, I actually do have a use case for it and came here to make the feature request. Glad to see it’s already being thought about :-)
Use case: I live in a country where I am not part of the majority ethnic group, therefore my ethnic holidays are not official holidays. It would be great if I could mark these holidays in my planner as notes—they typically aren’t events, since I don’t have anywhere to be for them, nor are they tasks, since I have nothing to do for them. Notes are the perfect “dumping spot” to put these sorts of reminders.

When migrating weekly task, recurrence changes

Imagine, I create a task I want repeated weekly, but not on a specific day (so just in a week), like watering the plants.
Then, once I migrate the task to a specific date, it's suddenly repeating on that day of the week. That's undesired behavior, since I may want to do the task on different days each week. For instance, maybe in week 1 I'll migrate it to Monday, but in week 2 I have more time on Wednesday so I'll decide to migrate it to Wednesday and until I do I just need it to be scheduled for the week.

"I pop in my class '[Class Code] Lesson 1", click the calendar, click a date, then go to repeat. However, I assume this repeats for ever. I only need it to repeat 12 times."
