Can there **PLEASE** be a different icon for blocked approvals? It is really frustrating for our team to have to look into an approval task’s details in order to see if it’s blocked by other tasks. Perhaps a spinoff of the approval icon with a small hourglass instead of a person? ---

Agree, this would be helpful, similar to the issue of [dependant milestones](https://forum.asana.com/t/get-the-dependant-milestones-more-obvious/162500). ---

I’d like to add to this topic. Currently, blocked approval subtasks are the only type of subtask with different icons in the project list pane and task pane. In the project list pane, blocked approvals have an hourglass icon that is slightly lighter in color than the icon for blocked regular tasks. However, in the task pane, the icon for blocked approvals is the same as the icon for unblocked approvals. This creates a lot of confusion ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/asana/original/4X/c/0/f/c0fa9c1988d2d62c1bcae48cea1595b26e7afd14.png)
