Mar 22, 2024

Features

  • Expand multiple levels of child cards – when viewing a list of cards, you can click the chevron to expand its child cards. If those child cards have their own children, you can now keep expanding the list to get the full picture of all the supporting work. This is supported in Views, Boards (when in list layout), and in the child card section of a parent card.

Improvements

  • Card and tags readability – we’ve made tags more prominent by displaying their name when viewing a board. We’ve also tweaked the spacing and size of the rest of the card metadata to make it more readable.

  • After creating a card, the toast notification will now include a button to copy a link to it.

  • When archiving something, the toast notification now includes the type of resource (card/page/board) that has been archived.

Fixes

  • The live chat button no longer displays when printing a page.

  • Fixed an issue where opening the tags picker via the 3 dot menu on card in a board would add tags to a previously modified card instead of the current one.

  • Large images will now scale to fit on an A4 paper size when printing a page.

  • The ‘Click to download’ text on an attachment preview is no longer truncated.

  • On mobile, fixed alignment issues when adding page icons and cover images.

  • Team members that accept an invite during an active session will no longer have an undefined avatar.

  • Long tag names are now truncated in the ‘create new tag’ UI.

  • Long truncated tag names no longer cause the ‘edit’ icon to shrink in the tags dropdown.


Mar 15, 2024

Features

  • Subscribe to a board – receive a notification whenever a card is created in (or moved in) to a specific board. Just click the new bell icon in the header of the board you want to subscribe to.

  • Subscribed to a specific list (status) – receive a notification whenever a card is moved into, or created in, a specific list. For example, ‘notify me anytime a card is moved to Done’. Just click the 3 dot menu on a list and select the new ‘Subscribe’ option.

Improvements

  • Custom tag colours – you can now choose any custom colour when creating a new tag. Just select the rainbow colour option to open the custom colour picker.

  • Inbox notifications now display a shorthand version of the timestamp to make more room for the title of the notification. For example ‘8h’ will be displayed instead of ‘8 hours ago’.

Fixes

  • Removed the number stepper control from the email code login in field.

  • Fixed an issue where you could not select a custom colour for statuses in a board.

  • On Safari mobile, the bottom of the space homepage no longer gets cut off by the Safari address bar.

  • Fixed an issue where pressing enter after viewing the settings page would open a cached search result.

  • In search results, untitled pages will now display ‘Untiled page’ instead of the title field being empty.


Mar 8, 2024

Improvements

  • Real time syncing in the sidebar – when you re-order pages, rename them, change their icons, or add/remove pages, now all these updates will be synced in real time to other users.

  • Space deleted notifications – you will be notified when a space you are a member of is deleted.

  • Redesigned our in-app toast popups to look a bit nicer and be fit better on mobile screens.

Fixes

  • Pages shared to web can no longer be indexed in search engines. This is to prevent bad actors using public pages to distribute spam content. We will re-introduce this functionality as a paid upgrade in the future.

  • Card attachments no longer extend beyond the width of the card on narrow screens.

  • Increasing the width of the Inbox sidebar no longer causes the card title to overflow its bounding box.

  • A divider in the 3 dot menu dropdown on video attachments has been removed.

  • The copy link button has been removed from the header of the ‘My work’ page.

  • Entries about checklist items in a card’s activity log have had unnecessary spacing removed.

  • Where there is only one card in a list, we no longer display next/previous arrows in the card header.

  • Fixed the button text on the error page shown when an invited team member clicks an expired invite link.


Mar 1, 2024

Improvements

  • Images in tables – you can now copy/paste and drag/drop images into table cells.

  • We’ve tweaked the formatting of the card activity feed to be more readable when multiple assignees are added or removed.

  • On mobile, the login screen will now display the numeric keyboard when using the ‘log in with email code’ option.

Feb 23, 2024

Features

  • Page templates (beta) – you can now create reusable templates for pages. Go to Settings > Templates > Pages to create your first template. Currently, the only way to apply a template is when creating a page through the ‘New page’ button in the sidebar. We plan to add more ways very soon.

Improvements

  • Real time syncing when a space is deleted – your sidebar will now update automatically when somebody deletes a Space (previously you would need to refresh).

  • When choosing a template to apply, if the dropdown of templates is empty, we now display a link to the Settings page where you can create one.

  • Board stats explanations – hidden in the info sidebar of a board we have some simple stats showing you how cards are progressing. We now show tooltips to help you interpret these numbers.

Feb 16, 2024

Improvements

  • In the sidebar and search results, boards will now display the appropriate icon for each layout you’ve chosen for them (board, list, or timeline).

  • Navigating to a favourited board whilst using timeline layout no longer causes the new and old board to alternate whilst it loads.

  • The board layout option for ‘Hide empty groups’ is now only applied to the current board you are viewing, not all boards.

  • We’ve removed the inaccurate version history feature from pages.

  • Fixed some hover states in boards where list names and icons would look interactive when ‘group-by’ is applied.

  • Fix a bug where opening the 3 dot menu in the header of space would break if you opened the same menu from within the sidebar at the same time.


Feb 9, 2024

Improvements

Fixes

  • Fixed some misaligned menus in the importer flow.

Feb 2, 2024

Features

  • Email digests – receive a daily email summary of unread notifications. You can choose what time they’re sent, and what notifications to include from Settings > Account > Notifications. Digests are only sent once a day and exclude weekends.

  • Board layouts – when creating a board, you can now choose a default layout (Board, List, or Timeline). Users can still change the layout at any time, but they’ll see the ‘default’ if they haven’t set their own preference. You can update the default layout for an existing board by going to its ‘Board Settings’.

  • Sort cards in ‘My work’ – use the ‘Layout’ dropdown to change the sort order of cards in the ‘My work’ view.

Improvements

  • Space members settings page – the settings page for each space has been updated to show a list of the all the members currently in that space.

  • Clicking on the group of avatars in the header of a space now pops open an information panel that displays a list of all the members in the space.

  • We’re removed the ‘+’ icon from the ‘Browse all spaces ‘ button in the sidebar to make it look less like one of your own spaces.

  • We’ve added tooltips to all the buttons in the quick card creation modal and tweaked some of their behaviour to help users understand how to use them.

  • We’ve tweaked the names of the ‘Sort-by’ options in the ‘Layout’ menu to make it clearer which direction the sort order will be applied in.

  • We’ve simplified and tweaked the design of our sign up flow.

  • In various Settings pages, we’ve moved the ‘Saved’ button to be closer to the thing you are saving.

  • We’ve added tooltips that appear when hovering over a status icon that will display the name of the status.

Fixes

  • When adding a filter in a board or view, the applied filter now displays the correct operator of ‘includes’ instead of ‘excludes’.

  • When editing a view, clicking the ‘reset to default order’ button in the layout menu no longer breaks the view.

  • When editing a view, clicking on the same sort order twice in a row no longer closes the edit mode.

  • On mobile, the Inbox now consistently opens card notifications with the card sidebar collapsed.

  • Removing a member from a space no longer causes its order in the sidebar to reset.

  • If the space icon picker is open, dragging a space up and down the sidebar will now close it.

  • The ‘layout’ button in a View is now clickable when using the desktop app.

  • The first space ever created in a workspace was missing the option to ‘Leave space’ it in the 3 dot menu in the header.

  • The icon picker pop up was not being automatically hidden when other pops-upin the app were opened.

  • Fixed missing text in notifications about resources being moved to a private space.


Jan 26, 2024

Features

  • Re-order Spaces in the sidebar – use drag and drop to customise the order of your Spaces in the sidebar.

  • Sort-by in Views – use the new ‘layout’ dropdown in Views to change the sort order of Cards.

Improvements

  • All spaces are now treated as equal – we’ve simplified Space management by removing the concept of a ‘default space’. This gives you more control over which spaces you want to join and invite people to. Assuming you have the necessary permissions, any space can now be made ‘open’ or ‘private’, joined or left, or completely deleted at any time.

  • ‘Resolved’ comment notifications – you’ll now receive a notification when a comment thread you participated is ‘marked as resolved’.

  • Changed the invite team member icon to better distinguish between an email invite to your workspace, versus adding an existing team member to a new Space.

  • Added a button to select a card template when creating a card inline in a board.

Fixes

  • The option to delete a space will only be shown to users that have the necessary permissions to perform that action. This is a workspace owner, admin, or the original creator of the space.

  • If you had the same filter applied in two different boards, navigating between the boards would make the filter UI disappear.

  • Added some padding between the buttons in the quick card modal and the bottom of the card description input field.

  • When selecting text inside a comment box, if your cursor finishes the selection outside of the comment box, we will no longer interpret that as trying to close the comment.

  • In the mentions picker, clicking on a tab in the dropdown will no longer defocus the text input.


Jan 19, 2024

Improvements

  • Added support for the keyboard shortcut Cmd + Shift + X to strikethrough text.

Fixes

  • In the desktop app, when creating a new page, the ‘Cancel’ button is now clickable.

  • Switching workspace in the desktop app no longer creates errors in the console.

  • Fixed a bug in the text editor which broke keyboard navigation when the mention/slash menu occasionally opened invisibly.

  • On mobile, the blue line to resize the width of the Inbox can no longer be accidentally selected.

  • Fixed an issue with infinite scrolling/pagination in Views.
