About

My recurring tasks

Features
Read full description

β€œMy Tasks” is designed for maintenance, routines, and recurring responsibilities β€” not disposable tasks. Everything that needs to be done regularly stays visible in one clear overview β€” no disappearing tasks, no re-planning. Instead of checking off tasks and letting them disappear, your tasks always remain in your task list. This helps you build stable routines for recurring responsibilities like maintenance, household tasks, or daily habits. For each task, you can see when it was last completed and how many times you’ve done it. This approach creates calm and clarity. β€œMy Tasks” is especially helpful for people with autism or anyone who benefits from structure, predictability, and repetition. No surprises, no lost tasks β€” just one reliable system. At the same time, the app is simple and practical for anyone who wants more structure in their routines. Set reminders per task with ease. The badge indicator shows when a task needs to be done again or is approaching its next moment, without you having to track anything manually. No time right now? Skip a task. It stays in your list and you’ll be reminded again later. Nothing disappears β€” everything remains part of your fixed overview. Organize tasks into categories, so you can quickly see clear lists per topic. This keeps your task list structured and helps you stay on top of recurring tasks and routines.
