Folders help you group related lists together, for example by project, team, or phase. Lists can also exist on their own, without a folder, for lightweight organization.

Create a folder

Click the + button next to Folders & Lists in the sidebar, then choose Add Folder. Enter a name, pick an icon and color, then save.

Create a standalone list

Click the + button next to Folders & Lists in the sidebar, then choose Add List. Give the list a name and optionally assign it to a folder. Leave the folder field empty to create a standalone list that appears directly in the sidebar.

Add lists inside a folder

When creating or editing a list, choose a folder to place it in. You can also right-click (or long-press on mobile) on a folder and select Add List to create a new list directly inside that folder. Additionally, a + icon appears when hovering over any folder row in the sidebar.

Reorder folders

  1. Go to Settings > Folders.
  2. Drag folders up or down to change the order they appear in the sidebar.
Use folders to separate major initiatives, and standalone lists for quick or cross-cutting collections of tasks.
