I just explored the new planner and priorities functionality and would like to share some feedback:
I appreciate the effort, but currently, the new feature doesnât quite solve the core issues Iâm experiencing:
- Flexible Task Management (not Clickup tasks, but things I have to do deriving from Clickup items): I need the ability to set multiple reminders or blocked slots per task/comment/document without completely blocking my calendar, maintaining availability for bookings from colleagues. Additionally, having options to organize tasks flexiblyâby days, priority order, or other customizable groupingsâwould significantly enhance usability. I want to do this from my task/doc/..., not only in some planner. This should be the functionality included in my task view in Clickup.
- Visibility of Priorities: Itâs crucial for me to clearly communicate my priorities and workload to colleagues. The current implementation needs a lot of work to keep it updated at little value compared to (1). Why not just rule based + AI generating/proposing priorities that I can "accept" to put in my priority section based on what I am actually work on (based on what I view, have in (1), ...
From my perspective, an ideal solution would separate two distinct functionalities clearly:
âą Comprehensive Planning and Task Breakdown: Allow tasks from ClickUp to be freely and flexibly planned, with the ability to break tasks down into actionable steps (e.g., âreach out to person A,â âcomplete specific action Xâ).
âą Transparent Priority Communication: Provide a simple and standardized mechanism to share priorities or workload status, whether manually or AI-assisted.
Currently, we have a mix of features across multiple interfacesâreminders, assigned comments, tasks without clear steps, and Inbox commentsâwhich is manageable personally but becomes overly complicated in an enterprise environment with many users.
Please let me know what I do not get or rethink what you are building. I really do not get why this should be a good solution.

Elias Höfer: Thanks for the thoughtful feedback! Youâre rightâright now, personal priorities are focused on tasks, and we know thereâs more to do. The value today is that your priorities are now easier to access from anywhere in ClickUp, including the Teams Hub, making it simpler to stay aligned.
It is already way easier to add something to your priorities, from any view, list view, task view, board view whatever. As long as you see the priority field (see screenshot) Honestly if you are looking for value it's visibility! Personal priorities are now everywhere, with more to come next week like top toolbar.
AI-powered suggestions for priorities are definitely on our radarâwe want to make it easier for you to keep your list up to date with less manual work. Appreciate you sharing your use cases; it helps us shape whatâs next!

Elias Höfer
Vasil Enchev my point: I do not see any significant value in the functionality as you are building it. It feels like a solutions that just happened but not thought through from a first principle perspective (from my outsiders point of view). From todays perspective (we are first going to try it out, but this is my current feeling) I would even ask you to build it as a ClickApp for us to turn it off.
Why:
- Priorities will never reflect what people are really working on. 1st because people might not want to share or 2nd because it is to much work to update.
- Thereby the value generated is very limited, but causing relative to it a lot of work/friction.
If you would build it as I proposed you would solve:
- the problem for individual users to manage what they really have to work on next.
- you would have a great basis for proposing the team visible priorities.
I hope that I am wrong but I am quite certain that I am not. I am just taking the time to write this here as you are missing out an a really big opportunity from my perspective. And it is a thing that is not easy to change once introduced once, from my perspective its a really important decision (thats why I am mentioning Zeb).
I would love to hear your arguments against what I am writing. What you wrote above doesn't really touch it but I also understand that you might be focused on other stuff.
Thanks for listening to users thoughts!

Vasil Enchev Loving these updates, but not being able to add a column that displays the List or being able to add Locations labels makes this feature, still, unusable for us. This has always been one of the big issues with LineUp and this oversight continues in V2. So much potential that we simply can't use in our organization because we use list templates and our task names are not unique. We
really
need this feature to prioritize showing where these tasks are coming from so that our team can look and see immediately which project the task is associated with.For reference, our hierarchy works like this:
Space: Projects
Folders: Clients
Lists: Projects
Our lists are templated. So 99% of our lists have a task called "Internal Edit" that can be assigned to anyone on our team. If we add this task to a team member's priorities, it just says "Internal Edit" and doesn't show which client or list.
Maybe I'm missing something? Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated.
Michael Rosenberg
Additionally - any plans to add a Dashboard card option that allows us to embed a team member's personal priorities into a Dashboard? We have created curated Dashboards for our team and that is their main interface with ClickUp, so it'd be a HUGE win if we could add a Personal Priorities card to their Dashboard.
Vasil Enchev
Michael Rosenberg: Thanks for the feedback, Michael! Youâre rightâshowing List/Location in priorities is a big need, especially with templated lists. Itâs on our radar and we know it would make things much clearer for teams like yours. I'll bump this up in our backlog.
Vasil Enchev
Michael Rosenberg: Right now our strategy for showing cards for other users is to show the priorities of your entire team in teams hub (or any team). This is a more opinionated approach. I made a request for you for the dashboard card.
Guy Mannerings
Vasil Enchev Not sure the Profile Image+Priority number is working for me.
I can see it being useful for team members to see other team member's priorities, but, for myself and looking at what I am focusing on on a personal level, I would rather an icon next to the Task name showing me it is in my Priority list.
Also, I don't particularly want to see all these profile images and priority numbers next to the Task priority - it makes the Task priority area messy. I think it would be better as a column that can be turned on and off or moved around.
So I think, in all, this should be broken-out to:-
- Its own column for Teammate Priorities, and
- An individual icon next to the Task name for items on my Personal Priority list.
Michael Van Doorn Any thoughts on having a Priority icon next to the Task name in List view, for items on my Priority list?
Vasil Enchev
Guy Mannerings: Thanks for sharing your thoughts! We want to make priorities more visible for everyone, not just personal ones. Your idea for an icon next to your own tasks is interesting, but weâre aiming for a solution that helps teams see priorities at a glance. Making it a column is something weâll consider for more flexibility. We also considered adding a new field but our concern with that this would be off 95% of the time and now one would see it.

Andrew Belov
Please add ability to use our own fields in the lineup, like time tracking button directly in there we can click
Michael Rosenberg
Andrew Belov Completely agree - and after all this time (and some truly great updates) we STILL can't see task locations/breadcrumbs in the Priorities views which was our original issue with LineUp V1
We use list templates for our projects, so 9 out of 10 projects will have a task with the same name. If we add this task to someone's priority, there is nothing that says which list it's associated with. I don't understand this oversight.

The help doc is inaccessible even with the beta active.
Vasil Enchev
Daniel Schlichter: sorry about that, it was not public. It is accessible now.

Hi Vasil Enchev!
I am a bit confused by it so far. Or I am missing something?
I am working as a freelance, not in a team, so it seems it doesn't really change anything for me right?
[Which makes sense as it is "personal priority" and I realize now teams are sharing priorities within their lists].
The only change I see is the Icon on the priority column.
As it has been said, if it could be used as a filter, it would be nice. I know we can see the PP / Old LineUp on a card in the Home tab, but I wouldn't mind havind it on a list view, or some place else I could pin to my favorite.
Personally I could use priority to keep an eye on what is important for a relatively long moment (>a week). It might not be a task -maybe a goal for exemple. I think I was hoping this PP would make them more visible ? But yet, I don't really know exactly what I mean by that đ (A quick list on the sidebar? I guess it is what the Tray is for, but I actually don't see it anymore)
Daniel Schlichter
Mara They do in an interesting way. I use it as a team but a lot just for my own todos.
The best parts are the icon and ordered # by to visually see if it's on a PP.
Being able to set that straight from the priority flag drop down also reduces GREATLY the time it takes to add them compared to the privious way (click the 3 dots, add to, lineup, choose urself....)
I then use my home screen to see my priorities quickly. What i 've found with home screen, is that deadlines, assigned task and etc just become overloaded with time. By havingf the PP it is great cause now I can focus on the specific tasks I decided needed to be done without even having to navigate back to the specific list.
Mara
Daniel Schlichter Thank you for sharing my working method and point of view.:)
Vasil Enchev
Mara: Iâve created a feature request for filtering by Personal Priorities here: https://feedback.clickup.com/feature-requests/p/allow-filtering-by-when-task-is-in-personal-priorities-lineup feel free to edit.
To answer your question: for solo users, the main change right now is the icon in the priority column, but Personal Priorities will soon be accessible from the top toolbar, which might make them more useful for you. I agree, having a filter or a quick-access list would make it even betterâhopefully, weâll get there soon! Thanks again for the feedback.
Daniel Schlichter
Already love the priority function for adding to "Priorities" AKApreviously as LineUp straight fromt he flag dropdown. works great. Umm but is the dashboard style priorities view simply not rolled out in beta yet? Can't find how to add it. Great work on this one ClickUp this is quite promising for our team and making our managers more aware of what's being worked on!
LBell
Are there levels? Can we customize the labels? High, Urgent, Low is limited. A binary system (in "lineup" or not) is limiting. Would like to be able to label with "Now, Today, This week" or "Most important, Next Important, Other" or 6 levels, or 10... that should be up to us.
Maybe this is answered in the help docs, but the link you posted is dead for me (says no access).
Shortcomings with Priorities that hopefully don't carry over to "Personal Priorities":
Naomi Peters
Vasil Enchev I appreciate the work on this, but the renaming is causing a deal of confusion on our end. We now have
priority flags
that can be assigned to tasks. And each user has a list of personal priorities
. So, as we are discussing tasks, projects, user assignments, etc., whenever the word priorities
is used, we have to go back and clarify whether we are talking about a task priority or a personal priority. And we have to keep doing that over and over. The communication becomes muddy & hard to follow. We need to have distinct language / labels for different features, please.S
Shreyansh Jain
Vasil Enchev Yes I agree with Naomi Peters
Also, the name LineUp was better to train people with because of it's uniqueness and distinct rememberability.
LineUp and now SyncUp has become symbolic to Clickup for our team.
I would prefer the name to stay the same.
S
Shreyansh Jain
For training I have found distinct and catchy names are always preferred over mundane ones.
Jacob Heldring
Vasil Enchev Agree with all the above reasons here to keep Lineup name the same. There are already priorities and a personal list. Personal Priorities is also slightly misleading since Personal is something that is used privately. It is suggestive that the concept is priorities that are private (personal). Personal Priorities is also a handful to say for something that some teams will likely use very often and doesn't flow off the tongue well for me. "Did you check your "Personal Priorities?" Other than that I love the idea but will be disappointed if the name sticks.
Daniel Schlichter
Jacob Heldring I mostly agree aswell! I do think it does help understand that adding to Priorities is under the priority flag, and why I think they must of changed it. But lineup was quite clear and distinct. wouldn't mind having that brought back either, (except in other languages it's not as easy to translate)
Vasil Enchev
Indeed, right now, we have
Task Priority
and Personal Priorities
. You might be familiar with LineUp
, but for new users, that name is too obscure - so itâs on its way out.We landed on
Personal Priorities
because it clearly communicates what the feature does: itâs when someone marks a task as a personal priority for themselves.That said, weâre open to better names! If youâve got ideas, throw them our way.
Guy Mannerings
Can the column be filtered by in other views?
I.e., can I set a Filter as "is in my Priority list"?
Vasil Enchev
Guy Mannerings: Sorry if you were the first to suggest it - credit where creditâs due! But still, cast your vote here. If we get enough support, weâll have a solid case to convince whoever we need to that this matters. https://feedback.clickup.com/feature-requests/p/allow-filtering-by-when-task-is-in-personal-priorities-lineup
