Customize which tasks you want to see and how they're displayed to match your management style, project requirements, and workflow preferences.

Change a layout

There are three different view layouts, which you can change whenever you like:

LayoutUse it to
ListSee everything in one place. Get a clear overview of all your tasks and subtasks, from big-picture plans to small details.
BoardOrganize tasks visually. Great for workflows where you move tasks through stages — like tracking progress, spotting bottlenecks, and setting priorities.
Day calendarFocus on today. Review what’s overdue and due today, and time block your tasks to make the most of your day.
Week calendarPlan your week. Time-block tasks across your week in any project, filter, label, or the Upcoming view. (On mobile, you’ll see 3 days at a time; on desktop, the full 7-day view.)
Month calendarLook ahead. Manage and schedule tasks for the next 30 days in a project, filter, label, or the Upcoming view.

If the project is shared, people in the project will see the new layout when they open and view the project.

Sort tasks

Arrange tasks using the following options:

Sorting typeUse it to
GroupingGroup tasks in a project, label, filter, Inbox, or Today view based on selected criteria.
SortingSort tasks alphabetically or by assignee, due date, creation date, priority, or project.

If sorting or grouping options are turned on for a shared project, these changes are only visible to you. People in the project will continue to see tasks in their current views.

Filter your tasks

In addition to sorting and grouping your tasks, you can also filter them. This means that rather than displaying all tasks in a project, label, filter, Inbox, or your Today view, you can filter out tasks. You can filter your tasks by:

Filter byUse it to see
AssigneeTasks assigned to you, a specific assignee, or no one
DateTasks within a certain time frame
DeadlineTasks with a scheduled deadline
PriorityTasks with a specific priority
LabelTasks with a specific label
WorkspaceTasks in a specific workspace
