It would be great to have a insert from templates feature. Inserting lists of tasks, text with questions etc. as a template.

Hi everyone, this is now complete. I released a partially complete version last week, but I decided I wanted to add relative date functionality as well, like Smoggy Florenza suggested, so now you can add dates such as 'tomorrow' 'next year' 'now (which additionally adds a timestamp)'
If you're also interested in list templates, I created a new ticket for that here if you'd like to vote https://bullet.canny.io/feedback/p/list-templates

Currently working on entry templates 👍

Hamish yay!
(Just as an example of what I'm using this for - I might say "Work on my marketing" and then the list and tags are already set, but the description and subtasks would be different every time I'm doing this).

Task templates

I would like to be able to have so-called task-templates, where I can create a task that is not recurring on regular time intervals, but that I do want to add more instances of as I go, with the right list, tags, etc being automatically pre-filled.

Just to add: especially convenient for incidentally (but unpredictably) recurring tasks with many subtasks

From Smoggy Florenza:
Yes, let me come up with some real use case.. For example, let's say the dashes are the entries,
1) <now> (functions as a timestamp)
- <now> Had salad for lunch
- <now> I feel elevated #mood
2) Frequent <list + tag> combinations
- <Work / Project A> Mail Anita (#Mailing)
- <Work / Project A> Reply to Mark (#Mailing)
3) <subtasks> for bigger tasks that always come with same subtasks but are not repetitive
- Trip to Bali
- <packing>
- <passport>
- <visa>
- <travel wallet>
- <offline netflix>
I just would love to save some clicks and utilize the digital handiness of this app :-)
Hope this helps!

Thanks for the suggestion. Can you (and anyone interested in this feature) share some examples of templates you would like to create?

I agree. I’d find it useful to be able to create list templates.
