Setting task priority by hashtag or similar in summary

[DerFlob]

Hello,

first off, thank you for your great work an the app! Much appreciated. :)

I was wondering, if it would be possible to set the task priority more easily. As far as I can see, currently you have to create a task, scroll down to show all fields, scroll back up tp the priority field and then set it.

Could there be a similar feature, to the hashtag being interpreted as a category for the priority of a task? Maybe using the exclamation mark and a priority name? I.e. !highest or !low to automatically set the prio.

Thank you!

Hey @DerFlob !
Thank you for your proposal! Yes, let's think about that.
When using something like you proposed, I wouldn't like to use the English word, but the priority name in the language of the app. I think that would be clearer. What do you think?

Hello Patrick, thank you for your quick reply! :)

I think it would make sense to localize the words for sure, but maybe also have the fallback to the English words?

Hello, spanish guy here
you could also come up with a "code" to set priority and avoid a word (Also would be quicker)

for example if the new task first line starts by <x> where X is a number you setted the priority to that value

and if you wanted to type a task with those values (weird but okay) you can avoid it by simply doing "<3> my weird task "

that way we all can be happy (i would love to have a quick way to set priority as simple as it is tagging)
