This would be very useful. Considering that most competitors have it from the get go.

Moving to âMicroSoft plannerâ for my personal tasks.
Will NOT be recommending Asana to anyone else. just because the issue of âNo board view on âMy Tasksââ, has not been addressed, in any meaning full way, for almost a year.
Correction, in almost three years. And itâs a basic function, that any planner app should have.
If this ever materializes, filtering by recently assigned, today, upcoming, later is essential.
Has anyone considered this alternative feature request? It would be easy to implement and achieve a similar outcome when reviewing individual projects.

New to Asana. Just switched my company to it, and it just seems quite easy to have a board view of My Tasks. And would help tremendously in getting people around here to adopt the software with minimal grievances. Its 2020âŠtime for board view.
And while we are on the topic, list and boards in PROJECTS could be different so why force them to be the same. Kills some of the productivity one could gain by having them be separate. There could be a box to check if you want to mirror your list to boards. But it would be nice to have option of not having them mirror.

We have started using Asana recently and for us âMy tasksâ looks like it is probably something that has been around like this from when Asana was started. Wouldnât it be easy to take all the functionality from a project and make this âMy tasksâ in stead of having this as a separate special page?
I donât mean that we should be forced to make a project as our personal board (as we do today to work around this), but that âMy tasksâ should be upgraded to mirror the functionality and options that already exists in projects.
Hopefully you would upgrade your product by prioritize this in the near future.

Agree, I would like this. I used Sunsama for a while which allowed this, but I disliked using a second tool. I would like Asana to handle this natively.

Iâve just successfully tested creating a rule that triggers on âAssign to personâ and executes the action âAdd to another Projectâ - making the task visible in âMy Task Viewâ project ad board.
The downside is I have to add this rule to each project where I want it to be active.
The good news is that I can add the rule quickly to each project that is likely to assign tasks to me - and for the rest, I just click âAdd to Projectâ when the task first turns up in my Intray.
I have added rules in âMy Task Viewâ to change the progress field in the task in response to changing its lane in the âMy Task Viewâ board.
Sadly, while the changed field value does show up in the original board (it is the same task object) - this does not cause the rule in the original project to trigger to move the task to the âIn Progressâ lane. So the task changes its Progress value, but does not end up in the correct lane.
I completely agree that the fact the feature is missing on My Tasks is a serious limitation, but with this approach I now have a board view of my tasks - which is essential to my actually using Asana.
Weâve had Asana at my organisation for over a year now, and Iâve pretty much ignored it.
It just adds noise to my email, and then gives me either a jumbled list view in My Tasks, or a fragmented board view as I have to visit each project in turn to view the board.
So up to now, I have just gone into Asana once every couple of months to flag tasks as complete.

Exactly. What is wrong with Asana for not picking up on this very clear need?

Adding my voice to the many who have requested a âboard viewâ for âMy Tasks.â Hear us, Asana!
+1 !!!

+1 for this feature. Sub tasks get lost easily on the main board - especially when itâs a review sub task assigned to someone. And the list view of My Tasks is horrible.
Not to mention your tasks in list view are missing the labels of the board they are assigned to! So all I get is no category and âLaterâ.
+1000, i am pulling my hair out not being able to organize my tasks into cards. Please add this!
Yes, board view in My Tasks would be fantastic. Today I have created a board called âTodayâ and each day I select the tasks for the day in âMy Tasksâ and bulk add them to the board âTodayâ and work out of that board. A work around that feels very clunky, especially if I donât get all the tasks done for the day and have to remove the cards from that board.
So I plan in list view and I get stuff done out of a board view.
