At a glance

Everything a good task needs

Captured in seconds

Quick add in every view or from a template — project, person and priority right in the title.

Assignees & owners

Several assignees, clear ownership — you can assign whole groups, too.

Subtasks with progress

Break big tasks down — the mini bar on the card shows how far along you are.

Comments & @mentions

Every task has its own chat. Anyone you mention is notified right away.

Time on the task

Start the stopwatch or add time later — planned and booked side by side.

Private tasks

What only concerns you stays visible to you alone, marked with a lock.

Create

Just start typing

Type the title and add shortcuts: @name for the assignee, #project, !customer, p3 for high priority or a time like 14:00. workYoo turns them into chips and files the task in the right place. For recurring processes there are templates with subtasks, fields and assignments.

  • Quick add in every view
  • The view’s filter values are applied automatically
  • Templates with subtasks, fields and assignment
  • Repeat daily, weekly, monthly or up to yearly

Collaboration

Working on one task together — without email chaos

Every task has its own comment thread. Several assignees and one owner work on it at the same time, and changes reach everyone instantly. You can also see who is editing the task right now.

  • @mentions with notification
  • Several assignees, one owner
  • Live updates without reloading
  • Shows who is currently editing the task

Structure & files

Subtasks, files and custom fields

Split big tasks into subtasks with their own assignees, priorities and dates. Simply drag files onto the card. And with custom fields you extend tasks with exactly the details your team needs.

  • Subtasks with their own fields and assignees
  • Close open subtasks along with the parent task
  • Files via drag & drop — virus-scanned and stored encrypted
  • 9 field types, grouped into sections and filterable in Smart Filter

Frederik · Training & support

My favourite trick in training sessions: set up a view with a filter and create new tasks right inside it. The filter values — project, customer, assignee — are applied automatically, and the task lands exactly where you’ll look for it.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between assignees and owners?

Assignees do the work — that can be several people or groups. The owner keeps an eye on the big picture and makes sure the task gets done.

Can I create tasks just for myself?

Yes. As the creator you mark a task as private — then nobody but you can see it.

How do I log time on a task?

Start the stopwatch right in the task or add the time manually. Planned and booked hours sit side by side, and you can export the times for invoicing.

Which custom fields are available?

Text, number, date, select, multi-select, checkbox and rich text — plus dividers and subheadings. Mark fields as filterable and they are available in the Smart Filter of every view.

Are attachments safe?

Every upload is checked for file type, scanned for viruses and stored encrypted on servers in Germany. Only members of your team can see it.

Can I see tasks in my calendar?

Yes. With the free calendar feed (iCal), your task dates show up in Apple, Google or Outlook — you switch it on or off per date.
