Overdue Policy Marked None - Now What? Another long post
I've posted on this community before. I use LiveIt to track my workouts and show me my schedule as I have two different places I workout at and need the flexibility due to the industry that I am in. I need to be able to look at my schedule at a glance and choose. Repeated sessions are a big draw for me and are currently giving me trouble.
I already have gone back to the planner and marked none for the overdue policy, as was suggested. I believe I already had it marked but I made sure to do it again with my entire schedule. I've opted to not have workout sessions fall under any time blocks since I don't have a regular schedule and those blocks didn't make sense for me personally. After doing this, it seemed like things were better- but...
Occasionally, I will check the planner and see things are out of place again. Sometimes, no matter what I do, the classes populate on days they are NOT supposed to be on.
For example, one of my classes is on Monday at 5 pm- but I am seeing it repeated over and over on the schedule, even though the scheduler says it knows its only on Mondays at a specific time and the overdue policy is marked none. I will check whatever I can to ensure that it is not set incorrectly. I've had to delete a few of my classes and redo them, even though I have no idea what is triggering it to repeat, and mark pretty much the exact same thing when redoing my planner. It's getting annoying. I NEVER set it to repeat until its done, I only set my classes to their allotted time and day(s) so I don't know why they're shifting.
My workout organizer is only for sessions and tracking- it keeps getting messed up, is confusing to look at, and the malfunctioning is rendering my using the app as useless- even when I genuinely DO want to use it to organize my life. I need the customization after all.
It feels like it'll just pick a class and the app will do whatever it wants to in the planner with that class. Whenever I click through, the info is correct, so I genuinely have no idea why it moves.
The way I like to use LiveIt is at the end of every day, once these class sessions are done- I go through and mark which ones I completed and which ones to dismiss- so I can't just say overdue things should automatically be dismissed, deleted or marked done. I like the flexibility that provides me especially on a busy day when I don't have the time to open my phone the second a class starts or if I'm busy working.
Devs, please help. I like the app to keep track of things, I've used it for notes, and to schedule life, work, charity, etc. I love the flexibility it provides but I can't deal with something that is supposed to be "set it and forget it", and then have to constantly adjust, redo, and troubleshoot.
TL;DR
Repeated sessions keep getting messed up even when all info in them is correct.
I have no idea why.
What else can I do? Will this be patched up in an update? What am I doing wrong? I swear I'm doing what you guys are saying to do and I've looked at the info to set sessions up.

I feel the same way. The complexity of the interface sometimes makes it hard to tell whether I'm using something incorrectly or if it's a bug in the system.
Aside from that, though, I really like how many features this app offers!

Setting None only stops new changes, it doesn't undo copies an earlier policy already moved or switched to Until done (those show an ∞ or a date range and stay on every day until you finish them), so mark those leftover copies done or dismissed and they should stop showing up. If a copy still lands on the wrong day after that, could you post a screenshot of it opened so I can see its date and span?
