I thought about this before, a lot of other apps have this and I think it would be a nice feature. Will probably be a while before I get around to it though, because this will require some major changes.

Honestly, this is kinda mandatory. CalDAV and Microsoft To-Do, both having syncing capabilities, has subtask support. It is weird to see subtasks alongside normal tasks

As a suggestion on how you could implement this without refactoring your whole code, you could add a "belongs to" property to sub tasks that contains the ID of the parent task, and a "sub-task" property that contains a list of task IDs. And you could only display those sub-tasks when a reminder/task is open. Maybe an option of "show every sub task" would be neat
