How to reschedule, skip, and otherwise manage Habit events on your calendar.

Updated over 3 months ago

Habits automatically schedule on your calendar, but sometimes you might want to make on-the-fly changes to let Reclaim know you've got other plans. This doc will cover the most common actions you'll want to take on Habit events to manage them on your schedule.

Rescheduling Habit events

Habits can be rescheduled in three different ways.

Reschedule Habits via the "Reschedule" action

You can automatically reschedule a Habit to another time during the same day by using the Reschedule option in the Google Calendar Add-on, the Slack integration, or the Planner.

Anywhere you see the Reschedule option, you can click it and you'll be presented with several options:

Rescheduling by manually dragging Habit events

You can also drag a Habit event to another day or time on your calendar or the Planner, and it will lock in place. This will prevent it from moving again.

Rescheduling by RSVPing 'No' in Google Calendar

To reschedule a Habit event in Google Calendar, you can simply RSVP 'No' to the event and Reclaim will reschedule it to a different time.


Skipping Habit events

Habits can be skipped for the day in two different ways.

Skip Habits using the "Skip" action

You can also skip a Habit for a specific day by using the Skip option in the Google Calendar Add-on, the Slack integration, or the Planner.

Skip Habits by deleting the event

You can also skip a Habit for the day by deleting the event from Google Calendar.


Log work on Habits

If you spent time on a Habit that wasn't scheduled, you can log that work in the past:

  1. Click into any day/time in the past.

  2. Select which Habit or Task you worked on.

  3. Hit 'Log work' to track the time.
