Add maintenance task
From Zanuli 1.3.6, use + on Home or Planning to open Add maintenance task directly. Choose a task, edit its name and set a date, recurrence and optional contact details. Only selected tasks are added after confirmation. Choose Custom task to create your own maintenance task from a blank form. Maintenance task names are shown in full, with switches consistently on the right; settings appear after selection. Add a website, phone number and email address under Contact details, plus optional Comments. Tap anywhere on the Contact details row to open the fields; the date has its own row.

Create a task from an appointment
From Zanuli 1.3.6. Open an appointment in the Weekly planner and tap Create task. Its name is prefilled; change it if needed and confirm with Create task. The task appears in Planning, where you can assign and complete it. Retrying does not create a duplicate. A regular, writable external appointment remains linked to the same task. Name and time changes sync both ways; a confirmed external deletion removes only the open occurrence. Completed history, points and the remaining recurrence are preserved. Conflicting simultaneous changes show a conflict. Connection or permission errors never remove tasks. A Zanuli appointment, invitation, recurring external appointment or read-only calendar creates an independent task. The form explains this; the original appointment does not change with it. Disconnecting leaves appointments with the provider. Private notes and contact details are not copied.

Weekly planner stays usable during calendar outages
From Zanuli 1.3.6, the weekly overview stays visible when one provider has an outage. Recently retrieved events may remain visible for up to five minutes, with a warning and retrieval time. Without recent data, the planner identifies the missing calendar; an empty day does not then mean nothing is planned. Zanuli retries automatically after the provider’s waiting period. Adding to an unavailable calendar is temporarily disabled; adding to Zanuli remains possible. Reconnect only if the message asks you to.
