Hi, I would suggest adding the possibility to see the recurring tasks in a certain day (which are normally hidden until the previous task is completed). In this way we could see how much time we actually have a certain day, in order to better organize the other tasks.

Thanks for the suggestion. There is a way to do this already. If you sync your Toodledo tasks to a 3rd party calendar like "iCal" or "Google Calendar" then the repeating tasks should appear there on all the future dates, but keep in mind that if you have a task that repeats from the "completion date" then the future occurrences will depend on when you complete the task and are not predictable.

Ok, nice idea in the meanwhile!

Is it possible to NOT show repeating tasks in the iCal feed? It makes for a very cluttered calendar to have a repeating task appear on every day in the future, instead of only the current occurrence. My preference would be to have any dated task appear only on the next date, and then when the task is completed, it moves to the next occurrence.

This may be a setting in your calendar, but it isn't possible on Toodledo's side right now to tell the calendar that repeating tasks arent actually repeating.

Unfortunately, a TD event/s fills google calendar without end even if you set it for the condition "repeat on completion". There is no way, IMO, to use a daily repeating task in calendar (without filling every day of the calendar) unless either GCal or TD make an API change.

The iCal syncing format wasn't really designed for this high level of customizability. We are looking into other ways to more elegantly integrate with a calendar.

Toodledo doesn't show repeating tasks in the task view as multiple tasks -- it shows a single task that moves to the next date when the task is checked off. Wouldn't it make sense to have this behavior in the calendar as well?
