Repeated task with repeated reminder for not completed tasks
When I repeat a task, e.g. "feed the cat" I would like to repeat that in the morning and in the evening every day. I'm fine that I need to make two tasks, one for in the morning and one for in the evening.
But when I set a reminder at 08 and 20, I want to get a reminder every day! Automatically, and also if I do not tick of the task for that day (horrible me, forgetting to feed the cat!). Is that possible and I am just not able to make it work or does that not exist?
Thanks!

fyver I’d like similar functionality, it could be relatively easily implemented like a calendar “reminder” in outlook that can be snoozed.
- Acknowledge the notification as complete.
- If the notification/task is not acknowledged, repeat the notification.
- Provide the capability to snooze the notification for a given period of time, after that send the notification again.
- I would like this addressed as well
- Much needed!
- Please fix this!
Almost two years later and this is still an issue. If I check off a task close to it's due date and time it usually carries the reminder over to the next day, however, if I'm a few hours late checking it off or if I check it off on my phone, the reminder may not carry over to the next day.
I'm pretty sure the whole point of a "To Do" list is to "REMIND" you of things to do, right? What's the point if the REMIND function doesn't work?
I've missed a few deadlines now because I trusted this app so now i'm looking for a new solution.
have you found an alternative?
decmanistal Only hack I've found is to set the tasks/reminders on the Reminders app on my iPhone. Then they are synced to MS To Do with recurring reminders.
- I need also that on my android phone.
To bad for a so simple function not included on the app.
I will try Google keep notes and list that said that it can do that. - Any sign this is being addressed? Used to be OK in Wunderlist. Basically, if I set up a custom repeated task (e.g. Tuesdays and Thursdays), I expect to new able to have an associated reminder/notification that also repeated each time. Right now the reminder only appears the first time the task comes up. Seems pretty basic requirement for a To Do list?
- Same here. Recurring reminders are not a feature.
