Todoist: prevent duplicate tasks for reoccurring tasks

Features & Improvements RequestTasks

I've been dealing with duplicate task issues, especially when adjusting incomplete tasks in time slots. This happens most often with Todoist tasks, causing problems with two-way sync. When a task duplicates in Todoist, the duplicates miss the project label, so tasks don't sync as completed in both Todoist and Akiflow.

    Hi Erin! A recurring Todoist task can’t be duplicated while maintaining sync across all duplicates. When you duplicate the task, the two-way sync with Todoist is removed. However, the original Todoist URL is saved in the task’s URL field.

    Let me know if this is what you meant or if something else, can you provide a short clip?
