Paste multiple things at once to separate entries

It would be nice to be able to paste several lines of things and have them added as separate entries, sort of how Todoist does it.

    **Parse lines into separate items when copy/pasting from another app**

    I send a weekly task list to my team via email, and it would be great to copy/paste it (a bulleted list) and Bullet automatically parse it into individual tasks

    I just started using Bullet today so this was also needed but I was able to use Apple shortcuts to take care of this problem :)

    Hamish honestly - my workflow is super weird :P I basically use Telegram as my communication channel between laptop and phone. So I'd be typing different lines on a laptop into Telegram, then copying them from Telegram on my phone, and pasting them into wherever I need it. But please ignore this workflow because it's madness :P I think it's not so much about the pasting part, rather about multiple line entries becoming separate entries - whether you paste or type them. Since Unknown Alikee is referring to ToDoist, here's what I found: https://todoist.com/help/articles/create-and-manage-multiple-tasks-in-todoist-PcPoskdUp

    Concerned Rebe: Thanks - could you describe your workflow, are you writing entries in another app, and then copy/pasting them over?

    Hamish if I understand correctly it's more like I paste Do groceries Send Christmas Cards Read book and it becomes three separate entries :)

    In the app, if you press 'Next' it submits and you can add a new note. Is that what you mean?
