Recurring Elements: Repeat Options for "This Week," "Next Week," or "Next Month" Tasks
Currently, tasks scheduled for broader time frames like "This Week," "Next Week," or "Next Month" cannot be set to repeat. This limitation makes it difficult to create recurring tasks that aren’t tied to a specific date but still fall within a specific period.

Recurring Tasks on Week/Month view (or w/ no specific date)
There are many recurring tasks that have to be done with a certain frequency, but not on specific days; for instance, I would like to deep-clean my kitchen every month, but won’t know what day works best for it before the month even starts. Allowing for recurring tasks to appear in these views would help a lot in completing these types of tasks and allowing more versatility. If we can lower the specificity of a task by not setting a specific time, and, for most tasks, we also don’t have to set a specific day in advance, why can’t we also do that for recurring tasks?
I think this is the only majorly useful feature that Akiflow is missing, now that subtasks have been added, which is why I care enough about it to write a feature request for the first time. I do hope the team considers this suggestion. Thank you.

Agreed. Some of my habits or recurring tasks need to be done each week, but not necessarily on the same day. It would be easier to plan my week of those events could appear under "Next Week" without having a day attached to them. That way I'd be reminded each week I need to plan for the tasks, but I could fit them in based on how my week was shaping up.
