FlexiTask is a Task managing app that facilitates both fixed and flexi tasks. A fixed task is simply a task that has a fixed due date, that could be a Birthday on the 21st of Feb or a bill that needs paid every 2 weeks. A flexitask on the other hand is a recurring Task which needs to be completed "roughly" in the time period specified. Perhaps you want to clean the windows every fortnight, but don't mind if it's a few days late or early. The flexitask app uses a urgency sorting algorithm to display the tasks which are MOST overdue (relative to their recurring frequency). For instance, a yearly task that is 4 days overdue is deemed less overdue than a weekly task which is 2 days overdue.

To determine a flexi-tasks priority the app takes todays date (in milliseconds) and subtracts the date the task was created/ last done (in milliseconds) - this represents the milliseconds since the task was last completed , we then convert this to number of days by dividing by 86,400,000 (milliseconds in a day) and adding 1 (for the due day). Our app then divides that number by how ofen the task is set to recurre (ie: weekly task, daily task). The end result is a number that represents a percentage of how complete/overdue/underdue a task is. For tasks that have a lower recurring frequency (ie daily), each day that task is overdue will increase the result relativily more than a task with a higher frequnecy (ie: yearly)
Todays Date - Date Created)/86,400,000 + 1
