I use Astrid as my main to-do list/app. One of my main features that I
loved about it was that you can set up multiple reminders for a task
so that it will keep coming up to my attention even if I ignore one
reminder. this functionality has been changing and it is causing big
problems for me remembering to pay bills!
example:

bill the 15th of every month, starting jan 15th:
way I used to do it - set up task (bill) for jan 15th, repeat monthly;
set up reminder for jan 11th, 13th, 14th.
--- this would remind me enough, even if i ignore the 11th it reminds
me the 13th. These also happened every month w/o me having to check an
option

Newer way --- sometime astrid changed functionality so that if I
cleared the reminder on jan 11th, it would no longer go off on the
13th or 14th. So now I just made a reminder on the 11th and got used
to using "snooze" functionality. This reminder on the 11th still
repeated every month

Newist way?????? - Is there a way to have the reminder repeat every
month? As of right now when I clear it, and the task repeats the next
month, it does NOT create a new reminder for the next month :-(

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

I thought I was the only one having this problem. It's totally irritating. It just started happening in recent updates. I have monthly, weekly and daily reminders for different tasks, but they stopped recurring. I paid extra for the Power Pack so that I could have multiple reminders, and now it sucks! Hope someone at Astrid fixes this before I have to find another app.
