When events repeat on a regular pattern, it’s easier to create an entire series of these events at once than to keep adding the same event over and over. Some repeating events follow a typical pattern such as daily, weekly, or monthly. But many events repeat outside of these typical patterns. For example, you might have a fortnightly meeting, a chore that needs to be done every other day, a bill to pay on the last Friday of each month, a project report due every 6 weeks, and so on.
Fortunately, with Teamup you can customize repeating events beyond standard patterns. Here are some examples.
