Hi Dwight. Yes, I did see this although I'm not sure how it's useful. I want direct access to subtasks after opening the task on the phone as this is where I'll be reacting to most reminders and taking action as a result. Having subtasks represent the items on my checklist seemed the most obv

Hi Laurence. Thanks for your input. It's on the phone app that I'll mostly be needing to Skip and I can see that Tasks can be skipped easily, but I think I was wanting to do this on a folder and the option's not there (I think) whereas it is on the desktop as you say. Tolqua. On Tuesday, 2

Hi Dwight. Thanks so much for your patience and understanding. You've taken a lot of trouble to understand and deal with the problems I'm up against and it's much appreciated. I'm quite surprised to learn that recurrence options actually don't apply to folders at all - I was sure I was miss

Hi Dwight Just to say that I use the recurrence property for a folder containing todo lists every day, I hope there are no plans to remove that feature, try it out, skip next (possibly receded by up to current) occurrence is an approach to resetting todo lists within a folder. I prefer storing

Hi, Tolqua. There are an unusually large number of issues in your latest post. Let's deal with some smaller ones first. 1. __Support__. I rely on the MLO support email for issues like, I found a bug, or I can't figure out how some feature should work. I rely on the forums for help like, how

Hi Dwight and thanks for your input. I've made a start - creating the checklists as Tasks with the items on the lists as Sub-Tasks. I hadn't considered using start times at all since the checklists themselves are not actually to-do items and even the items themselves aren't something that need

I've just started using MLO, syncing between my Windows desktop and Nexus 5 via Wi-Fi. I'm fine with using ad-hoc tasks and organising them in Outline view, but I now want to set up a system to deal with a particular type of recurring tasks. I have noticed that there are two or three times in
