We are excited to announce we have launched the newest version of our Tasks feature! The new and improved Tasks tab gives you access to more functionality to manage your tasks and greater visibility into the status of your team’s tasks, all within a sleek new design.
Below are some of the new features and improvements we’ve added!
Improvements to the Tasks Page
We have updated the Tasks page to give it a fresh new design that we hope you’ll love! Not only is the design improved, but the page can now be accessed seamlessly from your phone or tablet!
Desktop view
Mobile view
You’ll also notice that tasks are now grouped by their due date - making sure that you are always seeing your most important upcoming tasks at the very top!
We’ve also improved some of the functionality on this page to make it easier to view and update your existing tasks.
Assigning Tasks to More Than One User
You can now assign the same task to more than one user! You’ll see this new feature available when creating tasks from the Create button (or from our new Add Task button on the task page).
Clicking on each user’s name in the “Assign To” box will create one copy of the task for each user. They will each get an email that they’ve been assigned a new task!
Viewing Tasks You’ve Assigned
Managing your team’s work just got a lot easier! You can now view all of the tasks you’ve assigned to other users in the system through a new “Tasks I’ve Assigned to Others” tab on the Tasks page.
You can choose to sort the list of tasks by due date to see which ones are overdue or upcoming, or by the person you assigned the task to.
Even More!
We’ve pulled together your feedback on our old Tasks page and added even more functionality to make it easier for you to manage your tasks!
Archiving Completed Tasks
For our super-productive users who love checking tasks off the list, we’ve added in a new archiving feature so that you can clear out your long list of completed tasks.
Archiving a task will remove the task forever, so make sure you are really sure you want that task gone!
Receive Notifications when your Assigned Tasks are Done!
You will now begin receiving email notifications when a task you’ve assigned to another user has been completed. If you'd like to opt-out of these email communications, you can update that in the "My Settings" section of the application.
You can start using the new features right away - just click on the Tasks button to get started!
