Button or shortcut to auto schedule a task to the next available slot Would be interesting if this could be smart somehow and take into account previously scheduled tasks/preferences/etc...

When there is a Mac app, allow users to quickly capture like in Todoist

Being able to add Gcal events as tasks so the time etc can be tracked, the can be rearranged in the kanban view etc. All syncing to Gcal

When typing in a task, have Ellie recognize "by" for due dates, or 10pm for times, etc. Like in Todoist. This would cut the time it takes to create a task in half.

Have the ability to create, edit, and delete Google calendar events, including optional Zoom or Google Meet meetings. The ability to add your Google contacts would be a big plus!

The ability to add more than one label to a task would be a nice touch. This would help know what's in the subtasks categorically through multiple tags.

For those of trying to go to bed earlier it would be nice to be able to limit the time you can set tasks to something like f.x. 22:00 so you don't visually feel you have more time than you do.

after being marked complete, the timeboxed task reflects the estimated time. but if it took longer or shorter than expected, you might have to rearrange other tasks. it would be helpful to have tasks show the actual time taken to be able to get a more accurate view of the day

Sometimes, I need to clear my entire day. Currently, it's cumbersome to drag and drop everything when I'm using Ellie for both personal (family of 5) and business (photo, web design and marketing). Even more on mobile since can't just drag and drop into another date on top bar calendar numbers. I'd like to be able to just clear an entire day instantly, without having to manually adjust dates and drag and drop. It doesn't have to be fancy with AI right now, just something where we can choose to reschedule faster. Like, a select option to choose multiple tasks (or everything with the same label) and choosing reschedule a task to tomorrow, this weekend, next week (Monday) and next month (1st). Even just moving everything to the next day all at once would be a start, but then that merges two days and becomes overwhelming.

I have been testing out Ellie and Routine.Co and am much more impressed with the layout of Ellie. One thing that I do think is helpful in Routine is the ability to pull up the dashboard at any time, even when not working in the app, with a hotkey (ex. ctrl+space). https://www.routine.co/features/dashboard When you hit this hotkey, the dashboard pulls up. This allows you to work with the app without having to find it on your computer to open it.
