 ## [Unreleased]
 
+### Fixed
+- With tasks.org as the storage provider, recurring tasks are recognised as
+  recurring. Before, editing one removed its recurrence and ticking it off
+  closed the whole series. With tasks.org and OpenTasks alike, the editor now
+  shows the task's repeat rule instead of none (#135).
+
 ## [1.3.0] - 2026-11-02
 
 ### Added
