This is collective knowledge at Japan community (タスクをPin止めしたい (How to pin tasks)) rather than my personal tip.
We sometimes want to pin or bookmark tasks for ourselves, such as:
- A reference task that I frequently check
- A frequently accessed task that needs a complicated Advanced Search to find it
- An important task with a future due date (pushed down when sorting tasks by due dates)
- A task that I want to check an hour later
I think the popular existing methods are:
- Adding the page to browser bookmark
- Creating a private project for multihoming tasks
- Adding a private tag
- Creating a private task to paste task links
- Creating a follow-up task
- Edit: Using a section “Reference” (thanks for the comment below)
Another nice way is to use Home tab’s “Private notepad” widget.
The benefits are:
- We can simply paste the task URLs to display the task name, just like in task descriptions and comments
- It’s the quickest place to access when we want to quickly record an idea – just one click or one Tab+H away
- It’s the “base” page we visit after finishing working on a project/task. Once pinned, we can forget about the tasks and the Home tab works as a reminder when we are switching between tasks.
P.S. I hope the private note comes to mobile soon. If you agree, please upvote Private Notepad Widget on Mobile App?.
