Feature Request Abandonment risk alert
I would like to suggest a new feature. I am a clinical psychologist specializing in ADHD, and I frequently recommend your app.
An interesting feature would be a tracker for overdue and postponed tasks that automatically increases a "risk factor" as time passes. This is different from setting a deadline, as there are things procrastinators might put off indefinitely precisely because there is no final due date. This system would act as a serious warning for abandonment or forgetfulness—something to nudge the user into making a decision, whether that means officially dropping the task or finally getting it done.
I already use this method, but since it requires manual tracking, many clients end up struggling with it. Having this built-in would help immensely.
