GoodTask update is rolling out. Hope you like it.

## Revised Goals Page with Challenges

- Keep your long-term goals in mind and start with a small commitment: try a daily action for 7, 14, or 30 days.
- The revised Goals page brings your long-term, yearly, and monthly goals together with your challenges. Explore Dashboard, Category, Year, Month, and Challenges to find the perspective you need.
- Swipe left or right to browse categories, years, or months, depending on the card or view.
- Start a Challenge for 1–100 days. Choose a start date, reminders list, and long-term goal, and GoodTask creates a daily recurring task to help you follow through.
- Work toward a fixed end date, or turn on Count completed only to keep going until you reach your target number of completed days.
- See your progress on a calendar, add reflections along the way, and revisit finished challenges in History.
- Share your goals and challenge progress as images, with a choice of styles and details to include.
- On iPhone and iPad, add a Challenge widget to keep your progress visible and open the challenge directly.

## Pin Tasks & Events

- Keep important tasks and upcoming events in sight, ready to open directly.
- Choose Pin from a task or event's context menu to place it above your lists. See its date and countdown at a glance, then select it to open its details.
- On iPhone and iPad, add the new Pin Widget to keep pinned items on your Home Screen.
- Choose Unpin whenever you no longer need a shortcut. Completed tasks and events that have ended leave Pinned automatically.
- Drag pinned items to arrange them in your preferred order.
- Choose Default, Vivid, Minimal, or Title Only under Settings \> Appearance \> Pin Style. On iPhone and iPad, the Pin Widget follows your chosen style.

## Other Improvements

- Set up your lists, dates, calendars, and notification sounds in Settings \> About \> Setup Wizard.
- Other fixes and stability improvements.

Wow, I’m excited to try these new features! Is it possible to include past completed recurring tasks in challenges?

Hi @Redaxel , thanks for the feedback. Currently you can only make a new challenge with a new recurring task that gets connected accordingly. If you've missed the date, you can tap and edit it in the challenges page which will not interrupt the connected task. Thanks!
