Key improvements this week ๐โโ
- Recurring Tasks
- Recurring Calendar Events
- List mapping console (shortcut)
We have finally released the most requested feature: recurring tasks. You can now set up presets like daily, weekly, and custom recurring schedules as you desire. Additionally, we have released recurring calendar event creation, modification, and deletion. Focus on more important tasks by eliminating duplicates.
โญThis Week's Highlights
Recurring Tasks ๐
Create recurring tasks for routines like exercising three times a week or checking the dashboard every Friday. You can set up recurring tasks from the task popover where you want to set the recurrence.
- You can quickly create recurring tasks using presets like:
- Daily, weekdays, every week, every two weeks, monthly, annually
- Customize your recurring schedule as desired:
- Set the days of the week (e.g., every Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday).
- Set recurrence for a specific period (e.g., until August 30).
- Set the repetition cycle (e.g., every two weeks, every three days).
Recurring Calendar Events ๐
If you have specific tasks or routines that need to be repeated at certain times, you can create recurring events in your calendar. The spec of recurring options is the same as for recurring tasks.
๐โโ Note
Would you like to manage recurring calendar events as tasks? This feature is included in future updates, so please wait a bit longer. ๐ย
List Mapping Console (Shortcuts) ๐
We often organize tasks into lists multiple times a day. How about reducing the time spent on this process? Now, you can map lists using shortcuts. Press the L key on the task you need to organize, search for the desired list, and map it quickly. Also, we have updated the console design for planning and list mapping to be cleaner and more intuitive.ย
๐ Hidden Gems
Disconnection Alerts
Have you ever experienced issues with Google Calendar or Gmail integrations and thought it was a bug? Some users reported bugs without knowing there was an issue with the integration. Now, you can get alerts within the service when a specific account integration is disconnected. Suspect an issue with the integration? Check the alert at the bottom left of the screen!ย
๐ Bug Fix
- Fixed the issue where calendar events reverted to 30 minutes when time-blocking tasks consecutively.
- Fixed the spacing error with phrases like 'This Monday' when using the planning feature.
- Fixed the issue where the same email sometimes appeared twice when importing Gmail tasks to Offlight.
- Fixed the issue where time tracking information for tasks was not properly recorded on the Focus page.
๐ Upcoming
- Jira Integration: Manage tasks from Jira directly in OFFLIGHT.
- Mobile App: Manage your tasks with OFFLIGHT on the go. Weโre working on a mobile app.
- Task Prioritization: We're working on a feature to visually identify the most important tasks of the day.ย
๐ฌ Behind the Scenes
- Over the next two weeks, we are starting the official Launch Now project. We will quickly address areas that are insufficient for product release, and improve the landing page and onboarding process. We'll take a brief pause to prepare Offlight for its grand launch and then swiftly return. Please support us!
- This Monday, we moved to a new office. Preparing for the launch in a new place makes it hard to hold back our excitement!
