# Crew Tips: How do I customize a Task on Crew?

by [Jennifer Chou](https://blog.crewapp.com/author/jennifer-chou), on June 6, 2019

Welcome back to Crew Tips, a weekly series that gives you best practices and simple steps for making the most out of your Crew app, on both [Android](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.crewapp.android.crew&hl=en_US) and [iOS](https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/crew-messaging-and-scheduling/id962124015?mt=8). Last week, we covered [how to create a Task on Crew](https://www.home.crewapp.com/post/crew-tips-how-do-i-create-a-task-on-crew). This week, we’re diving into all of the different things you can do with a Task once it’s been created: let’s talk customization!

First, navigate to the existing Tasks you have outstanding. Tapping into the Task line item reveals the entire list of uncompleted tasks.  
![](https://blog.crewapp.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Rich%20Text%20Pasting/unknown-1593247187701.webp?width=360&name=unknown-1593247187701.webp)  
Select any task to view the Task Detail screen.   
![](https://blog.crewapp.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Rich%20Text%20Pasting/unknown-1593247169948.webp?width=360&name=unknown-1593247169948.webp)  
From here it can be turned into a repeating task. Simply tap on ‘Repeats’ to customize by setting the repetition interval, and starting and ending time. Don’t forget to save the pattern by clicking ‘Save’!

You have a number of other customization options from here:

- Set a reminder for the task by tapping on the bell icon on the top right of the screen. Selecting this will send out a group reminder about the task.
- Delete the task by tapping on the trash icon located on the top right of the screen, next to the bell ‘reminder’ icon.
- Reward the assignee with a [Gold Star](https://www.home.crewapp.com/post/crew-tips-how-do-i-use-gold-stars-on-crew)once the task is completed.
