Hi

I just stumbled across the wonderful 'Boards' feature

1 - Is it still in Beta?

2 - Does it work in IOS?

3 - Any general info about it - and how to use it?

Thanks

Mik

  1. No.
  2. Currently not.
  3. Search the Internet for the Kanban methodology, and you get an idea. It's up to you how you use the board feature ;-)

  Hi Stefano

  Thanks for getting back to me so quickly.
  
  Sorry - I was unclear - I am familiar with Kanban :-) I meant within the context of Workflowy...

  Can I ask another question - Is there a page that announces new features, whether 'boards' or other new features?
  (if it makes a difference, I have been a Pro member for years...) - I have searched and can't find anything.
  I stumbled across 'boards' by accident and wonder what other features I may be missing?

  Comments appreciated.

  Mik

  Thanks @Stefano!

  @Mik, a blog post to announce is a tad overdue. We've been polishing the feature before announcing...

  What we usually do is push a notification in-app linking to a blog post announcement... and that will happen very soon... along with a show-and-tell. @Stefano pretty much pointed you in the right direction re: Kanban. At its simplest, Kanban proposes a conveyor-belt-type workflow where tasks progress from left to right, passing through successive columns/ stages, normally including:

  TO DO > DOING > DONE

  One can visualize how things are shaping up by glancing at the activity by column.

  Thanks Frank

  I had looked at https://blog.workflowy.com/category/feature-announcement/ but not there.

  Thanks for the reply

  Mik

  P.S. Looking forward to it being on IOS - even if just iPad 
  Also adjustable columns...
  And thanks for your book - I bought first ed when it came out. Although I don't use Chrome :-)

  The new tweak to Boards, where you can just drag a card without the bullet point, is incredible!
