Recurring Jobs
David Telfer
Allow for jobs to be recurring and not just one time. Have the option for them to be set up so that they can be recurring at different intervals ie daily, weekly, monthly. How it currently is setup I have to constantly add jobs back to the list after they complete it so it is a recurring job for myself to deal with.

PLEASE do this. Its a big miss on an otherwise pretty good UI.
Its a feature on chores so should be a VERY easy coding update.

Recurring jobs. Having to retype jobs every time one is completed is a constant and unnecessary hassle. Amending the code to simply reactivate a paid job without it disappearing does not take a year+ to accomplish. Since this small tweak has been so long in coming and is the number 2 most requested feature, I feel like the company responses are only lip service.
Please fix the recurring jobs issue soon. I like the app, but I'm looking into competitors due to non-responsiveness on this feature.

Allow for Recurring Jobs
Kari Haravitch
Hi there. I would like that the jobs didn’t disappear when the are completed because several of our jobs are repeatable. The jobs are not chores as we don’t require them to be complete, but are recurring options for work to be done and more money. For example, mowing the law is a job for us, not a chore. As the parent, I wish the job didn’t go away completely when a child completed. The real problem is that I have to create the job again from scratch. I don’t want to do that! I’d like the job to remain available for future, recurring use instead of me having to recreate it every time! Thanks!

This is an important missing feature that I really dislike about the app. I don’t want to keep re-creating jobs, but I need the jobs to be there to happen whenever they happen, as in not on any particular schedule. For instance, if I want my son to shovel the driveway when it snows, there is no regular schedule for that. Sometimes it could be once a month, some times it could be three times in three days. It seems this could be as simple as a toggle or two, and there is a lot of interest in adding this feature!

Custom Chore Cycle

Add flexibility to chore management on Greenlight with a custom recurrence feature. This update would allow parents to set chores to repeat every 3 weeks (or any custom interval), ensuring smoother scheduling for families with unique routines.
