One dealbreaker for me is the ability to select multiple tasks for editing on the mobile apps. Please consider adding this features to the mobile apps and web site!

Also, please make sure we can bulk edit only the desired field or fields of the selected tasks. It is currently only useful to set all selected tasks with identical field settings. That need comes up only rarely.

I opened this in October but it's basically a duplicate: https://roadmap.toodledo.com/feature-requests/p/bulk-editing-tasks
I'm adding my voice to this as long as it's also available on the web.
Maybe style the current checkboxes at grayed-out or colored-in checkmarks (incomplete and complete, respectively). Then implement an optional column we can choose to add under "Fields/Functions Used" and style that as regular checkboxes.
Specfici usecase I encounter often is when adding tasks throughout the day, I just put a title and no other information. Then later, when looking at "Recently Added", I'd like to select subsets to add folders, context, priorities, dates, etc. and it's currently not possible.

The update that enabled multi-select meets my needs. Thanks Pamela.

This is available in iOS for select fields -- let us know what shortcuts are missing for you.

PamelaH: Fabulous update! In addition to the fields you added, I would like to request Start-Date (important for MYN users) and Context. Thank you!

On mobile app, please add long press to select multiple tasks to allow for quickly changing end dates, status, other related items. Thanks for the info on the web version! For mobile, I've been using Ultimate To-Do List as my front end to Toodledo. Due to the multi-selection option, it has become my go-to app for updating my Toodledo tasks on my phone and tablet. I can't express how much quicker it is to make changes on a small screen when you can select multiple tasks and make changes to all of them at one time. Toodledo Developers, check out Ultimate To-Do List as an example for implementing multiple task selection and editing.

Just FYI, on web it already is (for quite some time). Enable keyboard shortcuts, then select tasks while holding L and the batch editing sidebar opens. You must be on tasks.toodledo.com, not www.toodledo.com/tasks layout.
