Hey,

It's time for a product update from WorkTiles! We've been hard at work bringing some new solutions and general improvements.

Calendar view in My tasks

We improved the My tasks view to give you an even better overview of your day and week. In addition, it is now possible to see your calendar events in the same view. To get the calendar events you need to sign out and then sign in again using either Google or Microsoft login. Google users has to wait a little longer to get this feature as we're currently waiting for Google to approve our application.

Tasks without due date

It is now possible to create tasks without due date. This will allow you to quickly add all kind of small tasks. You can then later add a specific date for the task if you want.

Of course, we added a filter to all of our views so that you can find tasks without a due date.

And as always, plus a bunch of small fixes and improvements!

Kind regards,
Your WorkTiles team

Hey,

Time for a December product update and some exciting news from us!

Changed how External Assignee works

External Assignee has moved and you can now invite multiple people to one task. This will allow you to invite multiple people to a task to collaborate with. For the external user, it works just the same as before when they were assignee.

Displaying screenshots and images

When you upload an image to a task description or comment, we will now display the image inline with your content. We hope this will improve sharing images!

Search all tasks from anywhere (ctrl+k)

We added a search tool for you to easily and quickly find a specific task from anywhere in the application. You can click the search button or just hit the ctrl+k keys on your keyboard. If the task is recurring (e.g. monthly) we will take you to the active iteration of that task.

Workflow renamed to process

We have renamed workflow to process throughout the application as that is a much better fit and a more common word.

And as always, plus a bunch of small fixes and improvements!

Kind regards

Hey,

Time for a November product update and some exciting news from us!

Stakeholder collaboration - external assignee

As a first step of making WorkTiles a great tool for collaborating with external stakeholders we have introduced External assignee. This could be used for collecting information from people that are not part of your team in WorkTiles but you still need to collaborate with, such as someone from sales for the monthly numbers, or getting an approval from legal.

How it works

  1. Invite a new external assignee by entering their email and name. WorkTiles will then create a limited account for that user and send an email.


  1. The external person clicks the button in the email, they will be automatically logged in and have access. As an external assignee you can make comments and change the status of a task, all other fields are locked.

Notification digest

We are now collecting notifications and only sends maximum one email per hour. This is to make it less spammy. You still receive the notification in real-time when you're in WorkTiles.

Copy task

It is now possible to easily make copies of tasks.

And as always, plus a bunch of small fixes and improvements!

Kind regards

Hey,

We have some exciting new improvements to WorkTiles!

New due date picker

Due dates on WorkTiles have become quite complex and we have re-built how you pick a due date to make it faster, more intentional, and clearer.

Improved workload view

You now get a better overview of all tasks during a week. It is easy to jump into specific people in your team. This is especially helpful during status meetings with your team.

Summary tile in views

All overviews now include a summary tile at the top to give you even better overview of your progress.

In addition we made ~20 other small changes to improve and simplify WorkTiles 🎉

Upcoming

We also want to keep you in the loop on product roadmap. Here is a high-level list of what we currently have in our product roadmap. Keep in mind that this might change as we often re-prioritize based on your feedback.

  • Build new features for collaboration with external stakeholders
  • Improve notifications and give you more tools to personalize notifications for you
  • Add grouping to tags. This will give you much more flexibility with tagging.

Tasks recurring multiple days per week

It is now possible to specify a weekly recurring task to occur on multiple days of the week.

This also means that we have moved the "Delete task" button to the task page.

Reply to comments

Related to the task page, we now make it possible for you reply to specific comments and have longer threads in the comments section.

Hi from WorkTiles,

We are excited to show you some improved tools around managing your processes and workflows. We now give you a better overview of all your workflows and their iterations.


From now on, every task will belong to a workflow. The workflow is automatically determined based on a tasks dependencies. By default, all workflows will be "unnamed" and you can decide if you want to give it a more descriptive name.


We are as always excited to hear your feedback on how we can improve WorkTiles 🚀

Kind regards,

The WorkTiles Team

We wish you a great Easter!

Full dependency view
It is now possible to easily get an overview of dependencies between tasks.

You can reach this view by clicking "View extended" in the task slide over.

Activity list
There is now a new page where you can see all activity in your organization. You can filter on just your activity or see all activity for everyone.

Inbox
In addition to the activity list, there is now also an inbox where you'll be notified about the most important changes for you.

Plus a bunch of small changes and fixes 🎉

As always, we're super interested in your feedback.

Hi from WorkTiles,

New year and new functionality at WorkTiles. We want to keep you in the loop about all the changes and improvements to the product, please let us know if you do not want these updates.

New features

  1. All time
    There is now a shortcut in the time selector for looking at All time.
  1. See recurrence for a task
    It is now possible to easily get an overview of a recurring task's previous or future iterations. This is very helpful if you need to have a quick look at last month's iteration.
  1. Hide recurrence in the list
    We now give you the option to only see the most relevant task for all recurring tasks. This means that if you have a weekly task, we will only show the next upcoming iteration and not all previous and future tasks.
  1. Shortcut to view all unassigned tasks
    Click "Unassigned tasks" to find all tasks that are missing an assignee. This is a great view for you to check if you have any unassigned tasks.
  1. Create more
    If you activate the "Create more" toggle, you can easily create many tasks with similar attributes. For example, when you want to create 5 tasks that should all be assigned to the same person and have the tag "Accounts Payable", if you toggle "Create more" and click "Add task", those attributes will then be prefilled.

Plus a bunch of small changes and fixes 🎉

Additional updates!

We managed to squeeze in another improvement before the end of January 🎉

  1. Blocked is no longer tied to status
    WorkTiles used to automatically update the status of tasks based on the statuses of dependencies. We simplified this and "Blocked" is now separated from status so that you can start working on a task even if one of its dependencies is not done. You can still see clearly if a task is blocked as we color the background around the status yellow if that's the case.
