    Nice. I think timeblocking and recurring tasks/events are the main things that separate Notion from other calendar apps. A personal preference thing.

      While it is hard to know for sure without seeing it myself, it might be that your calendar is too narrow? If you are using an inline calendar, try expanding it wider, or try using a full page calendar and see if it works then. Hope that helps some!

      Thanks for checking out the video, Brittany! Couldn’t agree more. It seems silly to me that a simple feature like that hasn’t been added yet. Hopefully soon! 🤞🏼

    Manual recurring event- Not the best

      Hey there, Shivalay! I am sorry you didn’t find this video helpful. While Notion hasn’t added native recurring tasks yet (I hope they do), this was the best substitute for it. Fortunately, you have plenty of other task managers that have native recurring events if that’s what you are wanting! Cheers! 😃
