Feature requests

I work using pomodoro so I am always taking frequent breaks. This makes it hard to use the task drag and drop because I need to have many iterations of the same tasks to be able to plan my breaks. I would appreciate a feature to split the tasks once they are in your schedule to add a break.

Almost every calendar and daily planner I have used has this easy duplicate via mouse function. You simply hold down opt+alt while you click and drag the task or event to another day, and it shows this icon attached. I just tested in Apple Calendar, Notion Calendar, Google Calendar, and appears to be a common standard behavior. It’s such a seemingly small thing but I would love to see this behavior in Ellie! It’s really important to how I timebox my week, where sometimes tasks get repeated, they spill over into another day, or for any reason where they are neither a single one-off task nor a recurring task (such as, maybe it’s easier to create the task once but then I need to quickly duplicate it only on specific days). Ellie’s current duplication method (right-click > duplicate task) creates a bit more friction, as it then duplicates the task at the same time of the original, and then you have to drag it. So in other words, what could take one click & drag, takes 3 clicks + drag. Minor qualm but it’s just one of those UX quality of life things to stay in the zone. Thank you! :)

Surprised nobody has requested this yet! Add pomodoro timer capability to the timer

I would like to have a feature where I can pin the most important task to the top of the day / list, Otherwise, when I add a new task to the list / day, even the tasks with the highest priority level goes down.

I haven't seen a feature like this but to me it feels quite vital. I want to be able to create a larger task and smaller subtasks to then schedule

It would be nice to be able to track your completed tasks in analytics. I have several "habits" in my Ellie (eg "workout", or "early morning rise"), and to see how many times I've achieved them in a given time, would help me a lot.

Import tasks from things (with option as to delete it from things or just import)

See all tasks in a list view. Sometimes my tasks are so far spread in the kanban I lose them. Would be good to see a list of all my tasks in one place.

I'd love to be able to set 6h30m. There is no 7h which also feels kinda random.

Should be able to work on the same task multiple different time slots over multiple days. (Eg. working on an assignment over the course of a week. Maybe I spend 2 hours a day on it. And maybe I have a break in betwen - like I work on it between 9-10 and then have a meeting and come back and work on it at 11-12. I should be able to schedule the same task over multiple timeslots. Like Sunsama. (This is the one feature I need that will prevent me from using this app)
