according to the pattern of 'this year/ i år' and 'today/i dag', shouldn't 'i morgon' be 'this morning'?

One would think so, but it doesn't have that meaning at all. There's a similar one that means 'this morning': i morse, but morse isn't used as an independent word that I can think of. (i går morse also works for 'yesterday morning')
Tomorrow = i morgon.
If you omitted it, it would mean "it's sunday morning".
is the word morgon similar to the spanish word mañana, where mañana means both tomorrow and morning depending on the context of the sentence?
Not really. The i is part of the expression.
I morgon = tomorrow
Morgon = morning
Just want to say that imorgon is correct too. Same for idag, igår. Even if writing it apart is recommended, as said below. Canät duolingo accept that version_ Språkrådet rekommenderar särskrivning[1], men accepterar även ihopskrivning. https://sv.wiktionary.org/wiki/i_morgon

Both are perfectly ok and are accepted when translating from English into Swedish. Unfortunately there is a bug that makes it hard for Duo to accept spelling variation in the listen and type exercises, so it doesn't work there.
So would you still say 'i morgon' even if referring to tomorrow afternoon?
e.g. "Jag vill att simmar i morgon på eftermiddagen"
I notice that the app sometimes pronounces the 'g' at the end of weekdays (as in this one) and other times it's silent. Is it just me or is this the case? If so, is there a rule on when to drop the g?
Same for me. (Maybe the g is silent when it appears at the end of the phrase, so it is not followed by a vowel ?)

In this sentence, could the "Söndag" be pronounced Shöndag given that it succeeds "är"?
