Task FAQ

Can I change comfort after activation?

Yes. Use Update in Your Tasks and review the updated task history in Flow.

Why does my task not move to Active?

Check account readiness, account selection, comfort settings, and consent completion. Then review Flow and activity status for pause reasons.

Is comfort financial advice?

No. Comfort is your own user-defined boundary setting. Chilla enforces what you configure.
