Show past scheduled but incomplete tasks in sidebar
Bob Orchard
I often find myself looking to see what tasks have been scheduled, but not completed. This is similar to https://morgen.canny.io/feature-requests/p/add-scheduled-tasks-to-due-today-in-sidebar, and maybe past items can be grouped into some sort of a "due today" concept.
At the end of the day it's about finding things I committed to doing but wasn't able to complete at the time. Just rescheduling them or dragging to a new day erases the history of what I originally planned and makes it difficult to do a personal review the things I didn't get to and why.

One way to implement this is to by default/or by option, schedule all incomplete tasks after 11:59pm each day as all-day events for the next day, and then check-off (or cross-out) the incomplete instance from the prior day. By putting them as all-day events for the next day, it will allow you to easily time block it on the calendar for the best time that suits the user and provides a clear way of notifying the user that this needs to be rescheduled rather than keeping it in the task bar. Another option is to auto-schedule it for a specific time the next day but not everyone will want this (myself included) for various reasons.

Would also love an option to flag tasks that were not completed, maybe through a pop-up or by bumping them to the overdue section, even if they did not have due dates scheduled

K. Kamanani Conklin, yes, this would be great! I use the mobile app a lot and would love to see incomplete tasks that were scheduled stay on top of the app widget on calendar view so you could see there was a scheduled task that you did not complete. You can then complete it, or reschedule it. Currently it just disappears and can be lost until you view your entire days schedule again

Jared Wood, good point. The challenge for me is this: Sometimes I complete a task and don't tick it off, so it should wait until I do so. Sometimes I don't complete a task and your idea to move it somwhere else would be great. So, how to differentiate both scenarios? By a certain time, e.g. if a planned task is not completed within 6 hours after the end date, move it to the re-schedule list? Or do you mean that it should pop up additionally somewhere on top of the original time block? Flagging or tagging as suggested by K. Kamanani Conklin my help not to loose the original time block but also get a reminder.
