Hi, I’m having trouble scheduling activities for certain times with what is available at the moment. It would be great if I could simply set the duration of an activity and then move the activity with my finger in the schedule / timeline and have the app adjust the start and end times accordingly.
At the moment, if I have an appointment at 4pm, I start with that.
Then my commute may take a half hour so I put the end of the commute at 4pm and then I set the commute start time to 3:30. The app doesn’t allow this (working backwards from a certain time) so it changes the end time to something else automatically and then i have to change that back to 4pm.
Then I know it takes me about 10 mins to leave the house. As I’m trying to set up start and end times for that task, my other two tasks are blocked out by the screen and as I sometimes struggle to work out / remember times and timing, I end up having to guess roughly and then go back to my time line when i can see everything and make the time adjustments in each activity. If there are more tasks chained together like that, it becomes even more complicated and time consuming.
So I would love to be able to set the start and end time on one activity (eg the appointment) and then just set the duration for the other activities (eg commute 30mins, leaving the house 10mins) and then just drag those into position and have the app work out the start and end times for each.
Also sometimes I get announcements when an activity is starting, half way and finishing, and other times I don’t. It seems quite random.
And when tasks that I’m doing finish, they just disappear from the focus screen. You have to go and find them in the list of activities to tick them off as done.
I think someone else suggested this too - please if the task could remain on the focus screen so if there is no announcement, I have the opportunity to tick it off as done there?
Thank you
