How to Set Task Frequency

Configure how often tasks repeat - daily, weekly, or one-time

Task frequency determines how often a task appears on family members' schedules. Choose the right frequency for each task type.

Frequency Options

Daily

  • Task resets every day
  • Best for: Making bed, brushing teeth, feeding pets
  • Appears every day when assigned

Weekly

  • Task can be completed once per week
  • Best for: Cleaning rooms, taking out trash, laundry
  • Appears on the assigned day each week

One-Time

  • Task doesn't repeat
  • Best for: Special projects, one-off chores
  • Disappears after completion

Steps to Set Frequency

  1. Create or edit a task — Go to Manage → Tasks

  2. Find the frequency setting — Look for "Frequency" or "Repeat" option

  3. Select your option — Choose Daily, Weekly, or One-time

  4. Save the task — Frequency is now set!

Tips

  • Start with daily tasks for building habits
  • Weekly tasks keep the task list manageable
  • Use one-time tasks for seasonal or special chores

Troubleshooting

Task not resetting daily? Make sure the frequency is set to "Daily" and the task was assigned, not just created.
