My To-Do
Important
Accounts created before October 8, 2024, the default view for smart folders in List view, while the accounts created after this date will have the default view as Table view.
My to-do is a smart folder in Wrike that is created automatically in your Personal space when you join an account. It contains:
-
All tasks and subtasks that are assigned to you
-
Tasks that you manually added to My to-do
-
Tasks with file approvals to which you have been added as an approver
Tip
If you do not see some of these tasks in My to-do, check the applied filters.
You can manually add a task or a subtask that is not assigned to you to My to-do:
-
Navigate to the relevant task within a project, folder, or space, and open it in item view.
-
Click the three-dot menu button in the upper right corner of the item view 1.
-
Select Add to My to-do from the drop-down menu 2.
Alternatively, hover over the task you can click on the three-dot menu button 3 or right-click on the task in Table view and select Add to My to-do 4 from the menu that appears. The task is immediately added to My to-do.
Note
Projects and folders can’t be added to My to-do.
Tasks created from My to-do are automatically assigned to you. They are created as backlogged and always get the first active status of the default workflow.
-
Navigate to the My to-do tab 1 in the sidebar.
Note
If you can’t see the My-to do tab in the sidebar, click on the More button 2 and select it from the drop-down menu.
-
Click on the + Item 3 to the top of the tasks list.
-
Enter a title for your task.
-
Press Enter on your keyboard.
The task is created and added to the top of the list in My to-do. It's also automatically added to the Shared with me folder.
Note
When you leave the My to-do folder, the task might change position in the list according to your sorting settings.
-
Filter tasks 1 to show only active tasks, only overdue tasks, or all tasks.
-
Sort tasks 2 by priority, date, date modified, date created, status, importance, or title.
-
Use mass actions 3 within My to-do to quickly edit multiple tasks at the same time.
-
Display tasks and their subtasks assigned to you as a plain list: subtasks won't be hidden under their parent tasks and will be shown in the list alongside the parents.
To do that, click on the three-dot menu button 4 in the toolbar and select Plain. Alternatively, to group subtasks back underneath their parent tasks on the view, select Hierarchical under the Task list display 5.
-
Make task cards look bigger on the view. You can enlarge each task card in My to-do by clicking the same three-dot menu button in the toolbar and selecting Two-line in the Task card display section of the menu 6. After doing so, the tasks' statuses are shown under the title and all information on the task cards is displayed across two lines. If you select One-line, the tasks in My to-do will look as regular tasks do in List view.
-
Open a task in the item view.
-
Click the three-dot menu button 1 in the upper right corner of the view and select Remove from My to-do 2 from the drop-down menu.
The task will be immediately removed from My To-Do but will remain assigned to you if it was previously assigned. Alternatively, if a task is assigned to you and you haven't manually pinned it to My To-Do, you can simply unassign it from yourself to remove it from My To-Do. Or in Table view, right-click on a task, and select Remove from My To-Do from the menu that appears.
