Rituals: weekly options

One of the biggest opportunities for Akiflow is to provide longer-term planning tools. Most task managers (including Akiflow) divide the world of tasks into, basically, today/tomorrow/this week/someday.
Sure, Akiflow has the "plan" feature where I can throw a task to the following Monday or whatever, but requiring a task to re-appear on a specific date is not always what you want.
Often, you want to look at different time horizons: this week, next week, the next few weeks, next month, next quarter, this year, etc. and bucket tasks into those general categories where you can hold them for future review and triage.
Functionality like this, which lets me plan/manage different time horizons would be game-changing and would make Akiflow the best choice for "single source of truth" for all the things I want to get done.

I have used the new features in the latest release to plan tasks in “time frames” and I must say that it works extremely well. Well done Akiflow team 💪
Yes - there are things that would be excellent to have access to in future releases like having the Inbox in the right hand side to easily drag and drop tasks.
Overall rating of this release :
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐

I use tags for Soft Date Planning where I don't want to use as specific Date and just want to have lists to review for my daily, weekly, monthly planning etc. But I would also love to have it in the planning feature like "someday".

I also suggest to look at TimeStripe.
Currently I'm trying to use labels for life goals, yearly, monthly, weekly goals and then the daily-goal priority comes in. A goal-hierarchy would be great. The problem with the label approach is the manual work behind.
A goal hierarchy should have some functionality to cascade it down to a specific level.
My life goal "be physically fit" should become a "do a 15mins HIT fitness program every day" which goes down from life, year, month, week, day.
However, a one-time goal like "visit Paris" may be set to a month-goal in April to start the preparations. No visibility as a daily, weekly or monthly goal in January till March. 1st of April I may make this month-goal a week-goal and set small sub-projects as daily goals.
Jeson P
Mario: Thank you for this! We appreciate your detailed insights and feedback on implementing a goal hierarchy system. Your idea of cascading goals from life to daily tasks, and distinguishing between ongoing and one-time goals, is very interesting. We understand the manual effort involved with labels and how a structured hierarchy could streamline this process. We’ll share this with our product team for consideration as we explore ways to enhance goal management in future updates.

+1 for this. WOuld love to be able to add something to a "backlog" or "to do someday list"

A really good measure to probably consider with the weekly options is being able to see the Statistics on your review, and think there is two parts to this -
Review of week
Planning for next week

Robert: Thank you for sharing your idea about how we can improve and implement this in the future!

Maybe to add, Akiflow is a productivity workhorse it combines all your tasks in one which is amazing. However, I daily reflect on my day, how it went etc. So I journal / reflect. Also, if correctly my tasks contribute to my long term goals or are just simple todos. Currently you can only convert tasks into goals. However these smaller goals/important tasks contribute to bigger goals. It would be nice if you offer this goal hierachy option. And also be able to daily reflect with some notes, and do a weekly / quarterly / yearly reflection aswell. So you have all data in one. I can then go to a certain week and look what went wrong, why I did not achieve my weekly goals for instance and I can read through some of my notes how I felt etc.

Sjors: Thank you for sharing your ideal approach regarding this feature!
