    Fix: Recurring Task Didn't Reschedule

    A recurring task fails to reschedule most often because it was archived instead of completed, its end date has passed, or its recurrence is set to *from completion date* while completion was skipped rather than marked done. Reopening the parent task shows the exact rule and end condition.

    Open the task → Repeat panel. Check:

    1. End condition — did the *ends after N occurrences* or *ends on date* trigger?
    2. From due vs from completion — *from completion* only advances when you actually check it off, not when you delete or archive.
    3. Was the task archived? Archived recurrences pause. Un-archive to resume.
    4. Time zone — travelling across zones can shift a *daily* task by ±1 day for one cycle. Self-corrects the next day.

    If the panel shows the rule is active and the next date is in the past, tap Regenerate next occurrence.
