Todoist Recurring Tasks: How to Set Recurring Due Date

When you do a certain task every single day or a few days in a week, then this guide is for you. If you are using Todoist to manage your task list, then here is a neat workaround you can implement. Instead of creating a new task every time for a task that you do every day or in a particular period, you can set a recurring due date for that.

In this guide, I have explained the steps to set recurring due dates for any event that happens in repetition. Let’s say you pay a bill on the 7^th of every month. Then instead of setting a task reminder every month, you have to set it once. Then for the first month, you will get a reminder for paying your bill. Then again in the next month, automatically, Todoist will remind you of this task of paying your bill. Now, let’s check out how to set and manage this feature.

How to Set Recurring Due Date on Todoist

This is very easy to do and you can also set a recurring date for your tasks across all the devices you use. The process is fairly the same on all the platforms like macOS, Windows, Android, iOS, etc

All you need to do is go to the task field where your task name is seen. There itself type the strings “every Tuesday” or “every Friday” which is natural language depending upon your requirement. Todoist has the Quick Add feature that will recognize the recurring date. Once you save the task, Quick Add will highlight it and add it.

Here are some examples of how these recurring dates work on Todoist.

• Every weekday: this means the reminder for the task will show up every week on weekdays ie from Monday to Friday.
• Every month: This means every month starting from the current date
• Every 18^th: 18^th of every single month
• Every 18^th June: reminder only on every 18^th of June
• Every! 3 months: every 3 months from the day on which the task completed beginning with the current date

How to Set Start and End Dates for Recurring Tasks

Again, the process is similar to how we did above. Simply type using natural language and set your timeline based on the task. That’s it. Here are a few examples for you.
