Possibility to quick add tasks and add them to projects via hashtag
It would be easier than navigating the menus to add items individually. Todoist uses a quick add language. It would be great if you could implement that along with a quick add feature.

Are you referring to the Morgen command bar or for text when writing tasks out in the list dropdown?

command bar, command+k, add task “this is the task in #project1” rather then going through the dropdowns to add them.

I am not sure what you mean ‘rather than going through the dropdowns to add them’.
When you start typing out the name of the task tag it will selec the most likely and pressing enter adds the tag.
For me I would write ‘new task #pe’ and at that point push enter to add ther ‘personal’ tag to the task.
Does this not work for you?

This is an example on how Todoist does it. Rather then going through dropdowns, you can add your project right away when you create the task. Either to an existing one or to a new one that gets created.

Of course it shows you all the options and autocompletes them

I am not sure what you are looking for. The highlighted tag or task list to remain in text field after it has been added?
Pushing # or > opens the dropdown, typing reduces the list, pushing enter adds the tag or list. You can arrow key if want to navigate the list.
Attached is the experience I see. Tag list, searching tag or task list, after adding a tag.
Unless I am misunderstanding you want the text to remain in the text input rather than going below. Is that right?

I'm really sorry for being so confusing. I just tested it, and you're right, it works with the >, which is actually better than #.
The only thing I'm missing is the ability to add tasks from anywhere without having the Morgen app in focus. For Todoist, there's a little helper application in the menu bar. I can configure it so that with the shortcut Command + Option + T, it opens the small window I shared with you.
This lets me add a task whenever something pops into my ADHD brain, which is super helpful. Please consider it ;)
I actually bought a yearly plan just now because this was someting that is really needed for me.
Please also consider to make it configurable, that the current day is the day that is on the very left in the calendar view. I think most legacy calendar applications are still using either SO or MO as the first day in the week view, but who cares what happened on a Monday when it is WED?
