It doesn't matter which number I enter in the respective field, 5 or 2 or any, daily would still be due every 1 week. The bug doesn't happen if I set the daily to repeat every x days. Don't know about monthly and yearly dailies, haven't checked that. "

I set up a daily yesterday to repeat monthly on the first Tuesday of every month. I completed it yesterday but it is still on my list today. Not sure if I set it up correctly or not.

Hi! A daily activity is programmed to advise me 3rd Saturday of each month, but still advising me a Tuesday!!

[saraolson]

I marked this task as completed on the day that it is set to be due, the first Saturday of every month. So it was marked complete last Saturday, it was fully acknowledged, the app chimed and gave me points, greyed out the task, and overall just recognized that I did this task. But it continued to remind me again on Sunday and again today.

I have a daily set to trigger on the 15th of each month. I happened to notice that it didn't trigger today. Per the support page, I tried logging in to the website instead, and it had not triggered on the website either.

after this email the user messaged twice with the following information:

Looking closer, it says I have a 3-run trend starting in April. I wonder if I did it early in May; then when it triggered in May I checked it off since it was already done - causing it to skip June??

Additional follow-up... So the event did trigger today (a day later than it is scheduled for). I went ahead and checked it off. It shows that it has been checked off 5 times since April...

Today is Thursday and this is showing again but it shouldn't be. Can you please help me fix it. My app is up to date and I refreshed etc

Some "Dailies" tasks, when set to repeat monthly "on the first week on Friday" (for example), will repeat on subsequent days and additional non-first-week Fridays. Which, then, means if I don't do it, I'm penalized, but if I check-off as if I did but really didn't, I'm rewarded for no reason. And (for the example) it's a monthly task, not weekly, so doing it isn't an option. I hope this make sense, and thank you for this app - I have really benefitted from it!

@rilygreat Thanks for including this! - this was pretty crucial in working to figure this out

[saraolson]

we have a fix included in 4.3.2 that should improve this. if monthlies continue to not repeat on schedule after version 4.3.2, we'll reopen.

Details: When I set a daily to occur monthly, it often re-appears at the wrong time.

It doesn’t show up every day, but for example, it’ll be set to every third Saturday and show up on Wednesday, or show up two days in a row whether I complete it or not. I screenshotted the most recent example, but it has happened with a few different dailies a few times.

their screenshot was sent on monday july 15th.
