I am new to Nozbe and in trying to set up a repeating task I found I couldn’t do what I can do in Outlook. Repeat every Tuesday and Thursday or other combination of days each week.
I’m looking forward to seeing how the product continues to develop.

Want to add my vote for improved repeating task features. I have a lot of recurring maintenance tasks (e.g., change oil every 4 months, wax car every 3 months, etc.). Really need more choices than are currently available.
@Jon. Yes, we are aware of that. To be honest I personally very much need ‘every 2nd day’ option and quarterly. I do hope that those will come about soon.
Hi. Just started using Nozbe and it looks great. I would also VERY much like to see the possibility of repeating Projects just like we can Tasks. For example, every month I must do accounting. Since there are more than one specific action, it is a project not a task in GTD... but I do it every month so I would like to just be able to create a Project with all of the steps (tasks)... and repeat it every month. Hope you can implement it.
Thanks,
Jeff
@Jeffrey I will note this down, but why don’t you just keep project running and set monthly repeats in the actions???
@Delfina, good point and good work-around. I suppose the reason I would like projects to be repeating is that as I understand it one of the major points of GTD is that the system should match the psychology. A project I do monthly isn’t a series of repeating tasks— it’s one thing that I want to finish and cross off as done. This may seem trivial with the example I used above (monthly finances), but it becomes more relevant when considering projects that reoccur quarterly (budget-work), yearly (taxes, file-purging), or every few years. And there are a lot of such projects if you think about it. And most importantly, if I want to change when the project should be done, say on the 15th of the month rather than the first, or on the first of February rather than the first of January, I’d like to just be able to change it in one go, rather than change the due dates of every single task. Just my take on it though. :)
Some of us have been waiting months for quarterly actions :(
PLEASE!!!!
Zlatko I do understand how you feel, as I am also waiting. Unfortunatly, until the final release of Andriod and Desktop apps, I’m not able to even provide you with concrete deadline for those.
Well – that’s why I did some repetitive posting in the forum ;)
Season’s Greetings!

Hello Lucinda,
We plan to implement custom repeats in the desktop apps to start with.
As for your case… set a date to the task and repeat to every week ;-) this works for me. Hope it will work for you.
