Nested tasks

Break large, complex tasks into smaller, manageable steps using nested tasks (subtasks). This helps you organize your work better, track progress for each stage, and ensure no detail is overlooked.

Nest a Task Inside Another Task

Select the task you want to make nested. Then you have two options:

Press ⌘ Cmd/Ctrl + →

The task will be nested under the previous one. To return it to the previous level, press ⌘ Cmd/Ctrl + ←
Drag the task into another task.

You can choose any task as a parent — even if it’s located in another section or a nested project.

Select the task you want to make nested and drag it into another task. You can choose any task as a parent, even if it’s from another section or project.

Create a nested task

Select the parent task and press Option + Shift + N
In the context menu, select Create nested task
Hold down Option (or Alt for Windows) and keep holding the task. An icon will appear on the left. Click it to open the field for creating a new nested task.
Enter the task name and press Enter

To create a nested task on a mobile device, hold the parent task and select the option to create a nested task.

Tap the icon next to the task to create a new nested task.

Enter the task name and confirm its creation.

Delete a nested task

A nested task can be deleted in the standard way.

If you delete a parent task, it will be removed along with all its child tasks.

If you restore a parent task, it will be restored together with its child tasks. However, if you first restore a child task and then the parent task, the link between them will be broken, and they will be restored as separate tasks.

If you delete a child task, the parent task will remain. Restoring the child task will preserve its link to the parent, and it will return to its original place.
