Is there a way to get a “red notification icon” in Asana when a task is updated (similar to Trello)

Welcome, @Tessa_Lankhorst,

Is this the same as what you’re asking for:

Indicator to show new activity (icon or bold task name)

Hi there, Could you please do something like bold the task name in the task list when a new comment is added, so we know that there is a new comment to read? Or add an icon next to the task name? It would be really handy so we can know when a reply has come in, when working in the project view. OneNote has this feature – when a new page is added that the user who is logged in didn’t create, the title is bolded. It’s a very handy way of checking new additions. Thanks, Fiona

If so, click that topic’s title to scroll to the top and vote by clicking the Vote button; that’s the quickest and most effective way to express your support for a request. And let me know so I can merge this thread into that one.

If not, then please add a new request in English Forum > Product Feedback and vote there.

The approach in Asana is generally to use the Asana Inbox notifications, and make sure you’re collaborating on tasks you want to follow, a member of projects, etc., then religiously keep up with the Asana Inbox to track activity. And the tasks “come to you” there-- when you click the notification, the task or other object appears on the right side–no need to navigate away. Not the same, but that’s the way Asana operates by default.

Thanks,

Larry
