You don’t fill in fields to capture a task. You write one line, the way you’d say it, and Billine picks out the parts it knows.

Nothing is guessed silently
As you type, a chip appears under the line for each piece Billine recognised, and the title above them shows what will be saved. If a chip is wrong, tap its ✕ and that piece is taken back out of the line.
When you type only a time, Billine assumes today and shows a faded today chip, so you can see the assumption.

Tap ? in any capture field for What you can type, the same list inside the app. Settings › Capture has a field to try lines out and watch the chips appear.
