Hi Product Hunters 👋 Ever since the launch of Todoist Foundations last year, we’ve been paving the way for our most anticipated feature yet, Boards. Boards give you a powerful new way to organize and visualize your Todoist projects, whether you’re working on weekly meal plans or five-year business strategies. Boards flip the traditional to-do list on its head by visualizing tasks as cards that can be dragged across customizable sections. Add more tasks, rearrange your project, use a kanban workflow… the configurations are endless. The best part? We’ve designed Boards to be there when you need them and out of the way when you don’t. The list view will always be there – just toggle any project between board and list depending on the view you need in the moment. Boards are rolling out to all Todoisters right now and should be at your fingertips within a day or two if they’re not there already.

@amix3k First of all, congrats on the new feature! I use ToDoist as my sole task management app for the past 9ish years. Just tried the new Boards view. To be honest I'm not impressed. Not trying to be the all-about-complaints-guy, just trying to point out it should create columns from different formats, such as by date and not by "sections". I use no sections at all, so this new feature made exactly no difference for me, a long time user.

@amix3k @dmmd you have to restructure your project entirely. not for everyone but for one project I have it's working well and I enjoy using it.
João Drummond
@amix3k @jeffrey_wyman Yeah makes sense. I just wanted to leave my feedback as the idea of being able to visualize the board by date sounds appealing to more people as well and not just me.

@amix3k @jeffrey_wyman @dmmd +1 for a time-based board view. The board layout makes it really easy to organize tasks, but sometimes you want to organize them based on other criteria (context, project/list, time, etc). Also, I'd love if the time columns were customizable, because I use timeboxing a lot.

@dmmd this is the first iteration. We might bring this to filtered views as well. Let's see 👍

Love boards. Have been using it since it was in beta. Really good. If used correctly removes the need of trello entirely.

I'm into 6th year of using Todoist, Boards are dope, I need to spend a few hours and had to add a separate monitor to review and make changes to my entire Todoist account, as I wanted. But it was worth it.

And I'm back to checking out Todoist. I'm actually surprised it took so much time for the board view to be introduced.

@iryniuk we had to create a great foundation before we added them, e.g., Sections and the Task View. In general, we have been at this for 13+ years, and we don't compete on how many mediocre features we can ship.

@benjebara We integrate with a ton of great time trackers. Unlikely we'll do our own. https://todoist.com/integrations

Looking good, simple & clean. Plus, boards are kind of the way we think project management lately. Congrats

Always love new ways to visualize work or workflows. Being able to more easily see what's going on helps me work faster. I'm also interested in the ease of dragging and dropping. Plus, who doesn't love checking things off???

Todoist Boards brings a whole new level of clarity to my projects. Being able to drag tasks, track progress visually, and get a big-picture view makes staying on top of everything so much easier. This update seriously upgrades how I plan and prioritize.
