Weβve just rolled out a powerful new way to organize your tasks in Upbase β
you can now group tasks by dropdown (single-select) custom fields, like Status, Difficulty, Impact, and more.
π± Note: This feature is currently available on the web app only. We’re actively working on bringing it to the mobile app soon β stay tuned!
Letβs say you create a Status dropdown field to track task progress across lists β To Do, In Progress, Review, Completed, etc.
With this new feature, you can now:
π½ 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.

π Group by global dropdown fields anywhere
Make that Status field a global custom field, and youβll be able to group by it across My Tasks, Global Filters, Tags, and other lists.
We built a free resource board with the best tools, templates, and guides for running a small agency. No signup required.
Browse the Agency Resource Hub β
π― Filter by global dropdown fields in Global Filters
You can now create custom filters using conditions from global dropdown fields β perfect for staying focused on exactly what matters most.

β‘ Quick start
Starting a new workspace? Youβll now find a ready-made ‘Status’ field included to help you organize tasks right away.
