⚙️ PROJECT SETTINGS.

Hi there,

Exciting news! We're launching a new version of the app, packed with two major updates. Let's dive into the first one.

Project settings - a long-awaited feature. To access it, simply enter the project and click on its name.

In personal projects, the settings only allow for changing the name, but in collaborative ones, it gets more interesting.

On the main screen, you'll find a list of project members and the settings button. Click on it to reveal the following screen:

🟢 Event Notifications
Currently the only active setting, controls which types of notifications are sent to the general chat.

We offer 5 types of notifications: task creation/editing/deletion/completion and reopening. Now you can choose which ones to activate and which ones to disable.

In upcoming releases, the following settings will be activated:

🟡Notification Timezone
Displays the timezone used for indicating times in notifications.

🟡Notification Language
Choose the language for notifications sent to the general chat.

🟡Task Visibility for Admins
This feature allows group administrators, upon which the collaborative project is based, to see all project tasks, not just their own.

🟡Personal Notifications
Currently, you receive notifications for tasks both in the general chat and via direct messages with the bot. This setting allows you to choose the type of notifications you want to receive in private messages.

Stay tuned for updates to catch the activation of new settings.

🆕 Task Visibility for Admins.

Hey everyone!

We've been paying close attention to your feedback, and one feature that's been highly requested is the ability for project leaders or curators to view not only their own tasks, but all tasks within a collaborative project.

✅ You asked, and we're delivering!
Administrators of Telegram groups, which serve as the basis for joint projects, now have the option to enable visibility of all project tasks in their project settings.

⚙ To do this, simply navigate to the project and click on the gear icon next to its name - this will take you to the project settings. Under the "Personal" section, you'll find the option "Task Visibility for Admins", which is off by default.

In addition to this feature, there are several other exciting enhancements in the current release that we'll be sharing soon 😉

Hey everyone!

We've just translated our first article about the app into English! Now, our English-speaking users can enjoy an insightful interview that our CEO, Denis, gave last month ➡️

Dive into the article to uncover a few secrets and gain a sneak peek into the near future of UTasks.

But wait, there's more!

📄 We're considering launching a series of articles, and we want to hear from you. What topics about our app, planning in general, and tasks pique your interest?

Drop your suggestions in the comments below.

Hey there! We're excited to introduce a new segment:
FAQ - Frequently Asked Questions.

We've teamed up with our support crew to compile all the top queries. By the end of this, you'll be UTasks pros!

➡ How does "Date Planned" differ from "Date Due"?

In a task, there are two similar fields: Date Planned and Due Date. They're both of type "date" and may seem alike, but let's break it down:

The "Date Planned" field is when you plan to complete the task. Both the Author and Assignees can adjust this.

The "Date Due" field is the actual deadline by which the task must be completed. Only the Task Author can set or change it.

Example: You assign John the task "Paint the fence." The Date Planned is set for tomorrow, while the Due Date is next Friday.

John starts painting but can't finish in a day, so he reschedules for the next. He's aware of the Due Date and aims to meet it.

With multiple tasks, John plans when to tackle each to hit their respective Due Dates.

As the Due Date nears, both the Author and Assignee will see tasks due today in the TODAY block, along with a total count, highlighted in red. It's an extra nudge for both parties.

So, dive in and make the most of this handy feature! What's the next burning question?

Announcement: TRANSITION TO SUBSCRIPTION PAYMENT VIA TELEGRAM STARS ⭐️

What's Happening?

A couple of weeks ago, all developers of Telegram apps received a notification from the messenger's administration stating that starting June 12th, all payments should be switched to Telegram Stars.

Telegram Stars is Telegram's internal currency, which users can purchase through in-app purchases in the Apple and Google stores or via the PremiumBot.

Why is This Happening?

Telegram's requirement stems from the pressure it's facing from Apple and Google. The messenger is in violation of their rules by allowing its apps to accept payments for digital goods and services directly from customers, bypassing Apple's in-app purchase mechanism.

How Will This Affect Users?

To be honest, when we learned about this a couple of weeks ago, we were a bit panicked. We were concerned: how will the payment process actually work? We prepared in advance, and yesterday, right after Pavel Durov's announcement in the channel, we were among the first in the world to try the update, and we were pleasantly surprised!

Subscription payment is very quick, convenient, and maximally secure!

You can pre-purchase Telegram Stars and then spend them on a subscription in our service, or you can do it all at once, in one action, when purchasing a PRO subscription. Externally, this is no different from a regular purchase in the Apple or Google store.

When Will the Transition to the New Payment Method Take Place?

We are currently in the final testing phase and will be ready to activate it at the beginning of next week!

Preliminarily, on June 10th or 11th, you will be able to pay for your subscription in Telegram Stars😉
