How it works
Your open tasks are grouped by when they're due:
| Group | What's in it |
|---|---|
| Overdue | Open tasks past their due date |
| Due today | Open tasks due before the day ends |
| Upcoming | Open tasks due later |
Each task has a type, shown by its icon:
| Type | Icon | Use for |
|---|---|---|
| Envelope | Drafting and sending an email | |
| Call | Phone | Logging a call and its outcome |
| LinkedIn mark | A LinkedIn action | |
| Custom | Gear | Anything else |
Each row shows the task title, the contact and account it's tied to, and the due label. A round toggle on the left marks the task complete or reopens it.
