Let me add something that looks like a date to a title without it having to set the date of the task

I can’t tell you how many times I have a task that’s like “Tell John that I can meet with him on Wednesday” meaning (Today), tell John that I can meet him (and the day that I can meet him is Wednesday)

Or “start booking calls for the week of june 1” or something.

But I always have to either misspell it or put that context in the body of the task because there’s no way to stop it from auto-scheduling these tasks for Wednesday or June 1, once it recognizes a relative or absolute date in the title.

    Hi James, there’s a workaround for this: when the date in the title becomes highlighted, place your cursor inside the highlighted phrase and press Esc. This turns it back into regular title text without scheduling the task for that date.

    We agree this isn’t very discoverable, so thanks for raising it!
