This would be really useful for us too as we use asana for Kanban.

Any reason this thread has been active for 4 years without it being implemented? I could really use this.

Hi @Natalia I would also really appreciate it if the option reflects in Board View. How do I cast my vote?

+1. Cette option est plus que nécessaire. Cela parait tellement evident !

Using the dashboard may help, I use this often when looking for counts. You can create new reports on the dashboard and change or delete the default ones.

Still waiting for this. Would be soooo helpful.
As a user that is viewing a board (List view) I would like to see a counter that indicate how many tasks are under this section.
For example, instead of see “In Progress”, I’d like to see “In Progress (5)” that indicate I have 5 tasks under this section
Thanks
@Hagai_Galai I don’t know if it helps you as a workaround, but if you enable “Show task row numbers” in the settings, then you see at a glance how many tasks are in each section in list view.
thanks @david.bragason , after I turned it on I can see total sub-tasks next to each task. But not how many tasks are there under a board ‘section’ (Project List View)
I just meant that you can read the number of tasks in each section from the line number of the bottom task in each section. Such as 3 tasks in SecA and 5 tasks in SecB in the screenshot. If there’s a lot of tasks in a section, you would need to scroll to the bottom of the section to see this though…
thanks @david.bragason this is a creative solution, I appreciate it.
I prefer that the system will work for me instead that I will “work for the system” 
Welcome to the Asana Community Forum @Hagai_Galai!
The above option listed by @david.bragason is great for list view.
Now for board view I have found an existing feedback request thread and merged your post into that one.
Don‘t forget to upvote.
Another workaround until/if a complete solution becomes available:
If you don’t mind clicking the Dashboard tab, you could have this:

I want the feature to show count of tasks in a section by status, and have for a long time. All of the consolidated threads really do mislead the reader into thinking that there is something you can do in the app, especially with @Natalia’s official response stating that the feature is available from 2019 (lol, 4 years ago?). Isn’t there a way to make it clear that this is NOT available, or separate the feature requests as they were originally submitted?
How has this remarkably simple feature still not been implemented?
