Recurring Tasks: Option for hourly repeated Tasks
K
Kaylyn Knoll
From support ticket: I have something that is doable every three hours. Since ClickUp doesn't have hourly repeats, i went to set up separate tasks, one with a 00:00-03:00 start and due, the next with 03:00-06:00, etc for the full 24 hour coverage, eight tasks total. I started with the 09:00 task as that was the next one up when i started crafting them, set it up with normal, not legacy recurring every day. I then duplicated that task and modified the times for the next three hour window. And repeated, duplicate the latest task, modify times until i had all eight.
When i started to check off these tasks as complete, their next occurrences all came up as next day, 09:00-12:00 regardless of the times i had set them to.
It would be nice to have the option to have this available in recurring tasks.

I've checked out the new Recurring Task Overview. Please add sorting of all the columns + filtering on recurrence (daily, weekly, monthly, yearly, custom).

I would love the ability to sort recurring tasks by Task Name and be able to export the data for further analysis. I am also noticing tasks are recurring outside of the day/time they should be recurring. There are definitely some discrepancies within the recurring functionality.

The lack of this feature means I will move on to find a suitable app.

+1 For the tasks that occur 3–5x per day
I made a post asking to input more refined hour triggers for automations as well if you can please vote there (mockup attached) https://clickup.canny.io/feature-requests/p/hours-to-trigger-automations

Any updates please?

Hourly recurrance would surely be fine and that's why I try to navigate from another platform to here, however if recurrance would not be for example 2 hours after the task is done, but rather after an hour (regardless when the task was completed, it wouldn't help me much.
So, it'd be nice if we'd have hourly recurrances after the task is actually completed.
I schedule quite some tasks this way and the feature would be really of a huge help to me. Hope, the thing happens in the future!

This would be helpful for things that need to recur at work. Or for personal habits.

Hi! I would like to use the recurring task (or reminder) function to remind me to execute a certain task that repeats a few times within the same day. One time daily seems to be the shortest duration available so far and I'd rather not have to schedule or clutter up my daily task list with multiple tasks for the same item at different times.

You sent me an email asking why I didn't use ClickUp. Good Questions, so I logged in because I had never used Clickup before. It offered to show me how to use a view. OK, I don't know what "VIEW" is, but it must be a starting point. I clicked on YES show me view. Oh, VIEW is a list of Tasks. OK, easy. I clicked on where to add a new task. I typed every hour! in the task description. Nope, that's just text to Clickup. OK, Click the schedule ICON. Then recurring, nope, no hourly. Click on CUSTOM. Nope, not even an option. Only daily recurring. The first thing I wanted to try to do Clickup doesn't do.
What would you as a user do at this point? You're not selling an Application. You're selling me a service to a customer. "If Your Smart That Is." I don't buy an iPhone for Text and Calls. $10.00 phone will do that. I believe it for the way it makes me feel.
How I feel about Clickup at the moment is how they are going to respond the THIS FEATURE REQUEST. Make me Feel something by responding with what you are going to DO about it. No, oh, sorry, we don't do that. Every other company on the planet is sending sorries. Make the customer feel you're hearing them. It seems like a no-brainer. What would you leave out an hourly recurring task? That shouldn't be more than than 10-15 lines of code at most.
But David where not a habit tracking app. You are a task-tracking app, and this task re-occurs hourly. If I go on and check out more of Clickup, does it do Markup is RTF work in the task descriptions of the task. I should probably check that out when hourly works.
So to answer your email question this is why I didn't check out the Clickup solution it didn't seem like it could handle my daily workflow.
