Show me how old is a task on the someday page
This would help me prioritize which task to focus on next.

Hi everyone!
We just released a new version of Akiflow with some huge changes!
We removed the Snooze feature (no worries, no tasks are lost and ‘Someday’ it’s still there!) and added Time Frames, reviewing completely the Upcoming view, the Plan options and the Rituals (adding weekly ones as well).
You can find here the list of today’s updates: https://product.akiflow.com/changelog.
So now, reviewing the Someday list and move tasks to "This Week" or "This Month" is much easier, both in the new Upcoming view and the Weekly Rituals.
Let me know what you think about the new release and what we can improve for you.
Thanks,
Stefania

Stefania I have been already used this feature since agreed on beta testing, it was quite positive expirience that tasks could be assigned into different views like "This week", "This month", etc. Bunch of Someday tasks are not soring my eyes anymore :)). From that perspective it's a unique feature.

Stefania Really like the Weekly planning feature and the newer updates. I do have a suggestion. When we move to "Finalize your Plan" in the weekly planning; having a stacked view of the days so removing the need to scroll to assign tasks OR a freeze pane on "This Week" so when we scroll to days outside the view it is still easier to assign tasks rather than having a long drag scroll and then drop. Hopefully my explanation is not convoluted.
Also, is there a shortcut or an upcoming shortcut to jump into weekly planning?
Stefania
Mykhailo Talashov: Thank you so much! Is there anything else we could do to improve this for you?
Stefania
Hamza Nabiel: Thank you so much for sharing this! All clear, I'll keep you posted about this, thanks!
No shortcut for now, but I'll let you know if we add one!
After the update, do you still feel the need for a full someday review kind of feature?

Stefania Amazing, thank you!
I've actually never used the someday review feature, have always kept those tasks in my inbox for quick access.

Adding this feedback here on behalf of Miguel Duarte
It would be great to add "Overdue" and "Someday" to the left hand side. Or alternatively get us a better way to handle these... I end up losing track a lot of tasks I don't complete, and there doesn't seem to be an easy way to see them grouped. Or if I add something to Someday, it's guaranteed I won't see it for months

Jeson P Yes, we agree. Akiflow can be hugely improved by implementing a feature where users can define their preferred “time sectors” (like for example: 'today', 'tomorrow', 'this week', 'this weekend', 'this month', etc.) inside the "Upcoming" menu.
To provide a more personalized planning experience.
We love the Akiflow ui but this feature is really needed in order for us to use Akiflow in a proper way.
Se example implementation in the attachment.

I suggested this elsewhere, but maybe it belongs here, while Someday is under review. I really think Akiflow could use one more designation for as-yet-unplannable tasks that could be called something like Anytime, Next, or On Deck -- sort of like unscheduled Someday tasks, but more pressing?
Here's the argument for it: Currently, for stuff we can easily schedule because life allows, we just pick an hour or day and plan it; for stuff we have no real plans to do at all yet (if ever), there's Someday, and we can come back whenever; but for pressing things that fall in our laps that are between those two, the only real option is to crowd Today or Snooze those for another time. Snooze is one of the genius parts of Akiflow, but for really important stuff we need to keep handy to work into a crowded schedule as soon as we can, it's not always great.
If I have a handful of tasks every week like this, I'd love them to be easily within reach rather than disappearing and reappearing for repeated processing, or buried in the All Tasks menus where we can find Snoozed items. Yes, using Tags can help, but it's not as elegant or accessible as a separate menu category like this. Things 3 is much praised for its Anytime designation, and Akiflow could put its own (better) spin on it and help us all.
Hope you'll consider this when you're already reworking the way Akiflow handles the unplanned tasks in Someday. Thank you!

Rituals: someday review
A
Andrey Kiryushkin
We tend to put the items we don't need right now to someday. It would be useful to have a (configurable) periodic ritual to review those and move them to planned.

a ritual for someday planning would be awesome
