Adding Subtasks
For more complex assignments, you may need to divide a task into smaller parts for better management. That’s when subtasks could come in handy.

You can add a subtask while you’re creating a task or after you’ve created it. Tap/Click Add Subtask, then enter the subject and select assignees. You may also set a due date if necessary.

Pro Tip: Privacy Settings
When creating a task, you can choose between “All members can view” and “Only related members can view” for the privacy setting.

TaskPrivacy

Choose “All members can view” if you want the task to be view by everyone in the workplace or group. Choosing “Only related members can view” means that your task can be viewed by assignee(s) only.
