Update: We're removing the New Home Page from Wrike Labs, which means you won't see the card if you did not have it enabled previously. We made this decision based on all available information about this feature, as well as our ongoing efforts to improve Wrike Lightspeed releases. For the time being, you will be able to use this feature if you have it enabled, and we will keep you informed of any future changes. Thanks so much for all of your feedback and support here. As always, it's so appreciated ๐

Hi Community!
ย
Weโre excited to share with you that weโre introducing a newย Home Page that is now available in Wrike Labs โจ
ย
With the new Home Page, we would like to provide you with a clear view of what's happening right now in your account. The home page now features the inbox and tasks assigned to you to help you manage your priorities, and give you the ability to act on the most important work items immediately.
ย
We now have a brand new Home quick navigation button on the sidebar and two widgets on the home page:
- Inbox
- Assigned to me
You can customize these widgets by changing their size, reordering them, or by moving them around on your homepage. Clicking on inbox items will open the full inbox for you. On the Home Page, you can easily see if there are any unread inbox notifications and see if you have been @mentioned by any team member.
ย
The Assigned to me widget will feature all tasks assigned to you. A full screen of your items will pop up when you click on any item in the Assigned to me widget. The sidebar work item view will show when you click on any task from there so that you can work directly on an item without having to leave your Home Page.
How can you enable the new Home Page?
You can find the new Home Page in Wrike Labs. When you enable this, your homepage will be switched to the Labs version. The Home Page can be enabled on the individual user level and it's also possible to disable the feature and go back to the previous version.
ย
This is only the first step towards creating a โOne Homeโ for everything an individual contributor needs, so keep an eye here for more updates coming to your new home ๐

What are the advantages to this vs. the current home page?ย
Is there a roadmap available to see what additional features or widgets will be added to this home page? I realize it's new but as it stands it seems a little lacking compared to the current.
Do we know when we will be able to create/customize widgets? So far I can only see inbox and assigned to me.
Looks great! Excited, like everyone, about the next widget options!
Everything in Wrike is essentially Assigned to Me since I manage the schedules for the Creative Department. Looking forward to new options. Great work so far!!

Hi Elizabeth Bayer, the aim here is to streamline your homepage, making it easy to see your most important work at a glance and access everything else from the sidebar. If you have feedback on the update we'd love to hear itย ๐
Devree Czupinski, Crystal Gonzales, thanks for the questions on this. I'm checking this out and will be back to you on this ASAP.
Great to hear Kelly Rย ๐

Is there a way to return to the new homepage with one click from other screens in Wrike? I know that I can open the new sidebar and then click home but I miss being able to get back to home from anywhere with one click. Is there a way to do that I'm missing?
Hi Devree Czupinski and Crystal Gonzales, I've checked with the team and they are planning to implement further developments in the first half of 2023. We'll be sure to keep you updated here!
Meghan, it's only possible through the sidebar for the moment.ย

I love the new homepage. Inbox is always the first thing I check, so this feels like a more useful 'home' to return to. I like that it directs you to the sidebar for Navigation, I leaned on the sidebar heavily in old Wrike and it was something Iย felt was missing from the old 'New Experience' home and I'm glad to see it back in this new 'Lightspeed' refresh
Hi Gerrit Lane! It's great to hear that you like the Lightspeed releases โก๏ธ

Thanks for all your hard work, Wrike Team!
That being said, it feels like the Home page change was a bit of a sharp turn that didn't increase functionality and only made it more intuitive in the sense that there are fewer options available.
I won't be using the beta version for the moment being, but I'm looking forward to additional UI changes that make it better in the future.
Below is the feedback I submitted via the Wrike Labs link;
Welcome to the Community and thank you for sharing your suggestions and feedback Patrick Lawrence!

Currently, when I click on a task in my "Assigned to me" widget, it opens it into a little popup, but if I click on the parent folder of that task, it opens into a completely new Wrike window.
It'd be better if it could open into a new tab or the same window as I often end up looking at the parent view to get a bigger picture. Not sure how this will be handled in the future.
Thanks for sharing your experience here Eric Fiero, we will pass on your feedback to our Product team ๐
