New in Upbase: Group tasks by dropdown custom fields

We’ve just rolled out a powerful new way to organize your tasks in Upbase —
you can now group tasks by dropdown (single-select) custom fields, like Status, Difficulty, Impact, and more.

📱 Note: This feature is currently available on the web app only. We’re actively working on bringing it to the mobile app soon — stay tuned!

Let’s say you create a Status dropdown field to track task progress across lists — To Do, In Progress, Review, Completed, etc.
With this new feature, you can now:

🔽 Group by dropdown fields in a list

For example, you can group tasks by the Status field instead of only using sections. This offers a more consistent workflow across your projects.

🌐 Group by global dropdown fields anywhere

Make that Status field a global custom field, and you’ll be able to group by it across My Tasks, Global Filters, Tags, and other lists.

🎯 Filter by global dropdown fields in Global Filters

You can now create custom filters using conditions from global dropdown fields — perfect for staying focused on exactly what matters most.


⚡ Quick start

Starting a new workspace? You’ll now find a ready-made ‘Status’ field included to help you organize tasks right away.
