How to Make a Repeating Task in Notion

Quick summary

Notion does not have a native recurring task feature, but you can simulate repeating tasks by adding a Frequency property (Select type) to a database table and tagging each task as Daily, Weekly, Bi-weekly, or Monthly. This approach lets teams track task cadence directly inside their Notion workspace without any third-party tools.

Steps

1. In the database table, click Add property on the far right side of the column headers.
2. In the property type dropdown menu, select Select.
3. Click the new property name at the top of the column to open its settings.
4. Rename the property to Frequency.
5. Click the first empty cell under the Frequency column to open the Select options.
6. In the dropdown menu, select a recurrence option such as Daily, Weekly, Bi-weekly, or Monthly.
7. Your database now includes a Frequency property to track how often each task should repeat.
