Simple feature request
-
Hi there, thank you for your great app…I use it daily :)
In addition to the random entries that occur throughout the day I have a very useful reflective process for which I have set up 10 templates with titles such as; 3 things that worked today, 3 things that could be improved, 3 things I’m grateful for etc ending in Title of the Day. when I add one of these templates it is automatically timestamped to the moment I create it. These are the day summaries and for me it is important for these to be displayed next to each other in order as the last entries of the day. To achieve this I currently I have to go through an arduous 5 min process of going into each template and changing the times to 23:50, 23:51, 23:52 etc to be able to have my day insights in the correct order at the end of the day… as you can imagine this can feel very laborious when having to do it every day.
I am forced to do this because if you set the time to “All day event” the App just randomly orders the All Day events. I would like to request the very simple update of alphabetically ordering display entries set to “All Day Event” so that I can number the entries 01, 02, 03 etc and have them displayed correctly.
The above is my primary simple request and it would make my life much easier, however it would still mean I have the inconvenience of having to set the time. What would be the most ideal would be to create a category of template where the entries don’t have time stamps and are displayed at the close of the day. This kind of entry is very useful for the types of general daily reflections that one wants nicely organised for highlights in the “All Entries” view.
The only other solution I can think of for this is a feature that allows you to daily repeat an entry and set the time… that would be ideal… I can see how you might view that as problematic as it might create days/weeks of empty entries, however this could be overcome with a “do you want to add repeating entries today” button which you have to say yes to…. that was just an off the cuff additionally couple of thoughts there ;)
I please please hope you look at at least the first option…I’ve been using the app for years doing this time adjusting every day and the pain of it has finally built up enough for me to take time out of my day and send a message about it!
kind regards,
D x
