Snoozing maintains repeat schedules
Snoozing a repeated task doesn’t affect its due date for the next repetition. For example, if a task is due at 10 AM and repeats every hour, snoozing it until 10:30 AM will keep the next repetition at 11 AM as intended.

Custom Labels

Start/Defer Dates
Enables a start date (or defer date) field on tasks to designate a time before which a task cannot be done. Useful for planning when a task can begin as opposed to when it is due.

Filtering by Start Dates
Allows filtering tasks by their start dates in smart lists and search, aiding in task organization and scheduling.
