"Next week" should be Monday not Sunday
When selecting "Next Week" on a task, it should be set to Monday of Next week and not Sunday. Or at least this behavior should be configurable.

While this works on certain platform like Windows 10, changing the first day of the week does not yet work on iOS. This is an improvement we are working on

This should only be 1-2 lines of code on iOS devices (https://stackoverflow.com/questions/1106943/nscalendar-first-day-of-week) to leverage the system settings of the device. If you implement it'll satisfy a large percentage of your users.

Make Sunday/Monday optional. For some of us, Sunday is better given our schedule

Definitivamente esta opción debe ser modificable tanto en día y hora como cuando configuras una alarma donde te aparece que día de la semana escoges, es molesto que solo aparezca "monday 9:00. Si estoy en día sábado y lo paso a la semana siguiente: lo marca para mañana no considera una opción de más de 1 día.

I am in the same boat as everyone else.
Next week for Windows 10 is still Sunday.
Either use Outlook's setting or provide the ability to configure it.Why is it taking so long for this to get changed Marcel?

This doesn't actually work in the Windows 10 app on PC. Still sets Sunday as the "next week" date. It's been 2 years. Can we fix this?

Simple feature why would this take years to complete? Guess I'll have to do away with another Microsoft product... Very odd why you would have Sunday the default when the majority of people have their workweek start on Monday...

Request you provide what everyone is consistently asking in these posts/comments - Please allow for the start of the working weekday to be set in 'preferences'
Please Note. The first request to resolve this issue was in Nov 2016.

This approach to 'fix' does not resolve or provide a solution to the problem. IOS and Android applications have limited ability to adapt to the first 'working' day.
Along with very short Snooze and constantly having to adjust 'next week' todo's to Monday is counterproductive and limits the consistent use of the application.
Please provide an update and correction - these apparent simple requests for basic usability improvements appear to deprioritized and have very long release cycles . -

How is this being worked on? Do you really work on this convenience feature?

I feel like this feature would be standard. Microsoft you know people view calendars differently in various parts of the world. Being a new app to not have such a basic feature is disappointing.

So could we get an update on this? Seems to have been discussed for quite some time, is this really being worked on?

I really like the other "quick click" options (remind me later, due date > today / tomorrow, etc.), but this one is odd. I can't de/select include weekends or customize which day is the first of the week.

Allow OPTION to set "First day of week is:" = Sunday or = Monday. Or allow OPTIONAL setting any day as first day in week. Traditional work week is long gone. I used to work Wednesday - Monday. Also- allow OPTIONAL setting of which days are in the work week, as just stated.

On Win 10, changing the first day of the week to Monday messes up how calendars are shown elsewhere in the system. In the US we're used to seeing weekly calendars start with Sunday on the left, not Monday. So that settings change isn't broadly beneficial just to fix this long-standing annoying issue in To-Do. Clearly for most people, "Next week" means "Start of the working week", not strictly what the first day of the week is.

for macOS you can set the first day of the week to monday in system preferences (see Ian and Elizabeth's suggestions below)
