A simple system I’m using to stay in touch with hundreds of people

This is related to an idea I had for a "todo" app that I haven't found anywhere yet. Every task can implement some kind of flexible occurrence. It's for tasks that should be done but the exact date isn't very important and the recurrence interval starts again not the last time the task became "due" but the last time it was done.

It fits many kinds of tasks, watering plants, checking a furnace filter, ... but also staying in touch with people.

Does anyone know of a service or app like that?

Clickup does this very well-lets you decide if you want to create a new instance no matter what, or whether you want to create a relative recurrence when the task is complete.

So in the case of furnace filters: create quarterly, then push next one out x days once marked complete.

In the case of rent, it's always due the 1st of the month regardless of whether I pay on the 2nd or the 31st.

There is an Android app I found called Regularly.

I don't use it any more, but it might suit your needs...
