Feature Requests

I was able to drag things from personal list to calendar and time block it from Home view now called my tasks view, new clickup removed this amazing feature, no idea why. please bring it back this is an insanely valuable feature, the planner is like going back 5 years vs what the home/my tasks area allows you to do.

Was able to do this in 2.0. Can't do it in 3.0.

Creating a kanban view for my tasks so it isn't just a list would help to more easily see everything you have to do and it's status. I have included a screenshot of the current view along side a very rough wireframe mockup of what I am thinking.

Click up has great features. But, it's UI is messy and cluttered. Way too much repetition, and poor text hierarchy. If you feel the same way, please use this feed to add in your own UI critiques and hopefully they will listen, and give us a refresh. Example 1 - The inbox. The inbox useful in theory, but I find it unusable in practice. Why are dates written as full strings including the year repeated again and again? I am already informed above these tasks what the month is. I find it pretty easy to guess what the year is, and I certainly don't need told what century we're in, and not again and again for every tasks beginning and end date! I find it extremely hard to get a quick sense of what I am looking at. Even dates written in alphabetic style would be easy. Like 7th Jul - 8th Aug. If the month is written above, does it need to be on the task as well? Similarly, I have named my lists according to the project title. In this view, it is very hard to see the project title easily. This means I have a long list of tasks but it's hard for me to quickly see which projects they relate to. I rarely add project names to my task titles because this would also be unnecessary duplication. Please redesign this page so that the principle information is clearly visible and extraneous information and repetition is removed.

One of ClickUp’s strongest advantages is the flexibility of views at the Space, Folder, and List levels. Teams can tailor their workspace to match different working styles and operational needs, which directly improves productivity, visibility, and adoption across departments. However, this flexibility currently stops at high-usage personal views such as Assigned to Me and Today & Overdue, despite these being among the most operationally critical areas of the platform. IMPROVEMENT 1: Customizable My Task View (For Assigned to Me and Today & Earlier) It would be extremely valuable if users could: Toggle between multiple layouts (List, Board, Calendar, etc.) inside Assigned to Me and Today & Overdue Save preferred view configurations Customize which custom fields are visible from outside the task Apply filters specific to their role or workflow Create different saved personal views depending on operational needs Different team members process work differently: Some operate more efficiently in List View Others rely heavily on Board View Many teams rely on key custom fields being visible at a glance without opening the task Currently, Assigned to Me and Today & Overdue remove a large amount of operational context because they do not offer the same customization capabilities available elsewhere in ClickUp. This becomes especially problematic for teams that depend heavily on custom fields to execute work efficiently. Without these visible directly in Today & Overdue, users are forced to open tasks individually just to gather basic execution context, which slows down workflows significantly at scale. IMPROVEMENT 2: Expanded Filtering Capabilities Execution teams often only need visibility into actionable tasks relevant to their daily workload. However, Today & Overdue currently includes everything assigned to them, including: On Hold tasks Waiting for Client tasks Blocked items Non-actionable backlog items This creates unnecessary clutter and increases the likelihood of: Missed priorities Reduced focus Task fatigue Slower execution If customizable filtering and custom field visibility were available inside these personal views, managers could: Create cleaner execution-focused views for team members Hide non-actionable statuses Surface only priority or active work Ensure key operational custom fields are visible immediately Maintain separate management-focused views elsewhere in the workspace This would significantly improve usability for larger teams and operational environments where task volume is high. Additional Note: I remember Notion having a very intuitive way to toggle between saved database views directly from the same interface, similar to how ClickUp currently handles “Group By” options. A comparable approach inside Assigned to Me and Today & Overdue with considerations to viewable custom fields would make these areas substantially more powerful and adaptable. This feature would improve scalability, execution speed, and operational clarity for teams managing high workloads daily.

I have always wanted this in ClickUp, and it would make it so much more productivity-aligned especially for mobile. What would be INCREDIBLE is when you have a task open, you change the status to complete, and also have an option to mark it complete with a note: you could then add that note and either manually or using Brain/Super Agents create next tasks from that completion note. On almost every task I complete, especially with using ClickUp as a small business owner and for sales, completing a 'task' in the real world means there are multiple tasks that are birthed from it. So if that birth of new tasks subsequent of completing a task could be facilitated without having to nav back to the list UI and create it or multiple new tasks, that would be game changing.

Allow Plan Days with time blocked for tasks? (And to add in blocked out bits for other stuff (eg non descript meeting)

In ClickUp 3.0 it was possible to switch to Calendar View instead of Agenda View by default, however in ClickUp 4.0 Agenda comes as default and each time the view should be changed manually.

I'm using the ClickUp MCP server ( https://mcp.clickup.com/mcp ) via Claude.ai to manage my Priorities space, which has a custom number field called "Priority Score" (field ID bbb51a38-0e9b-40d6-b37f-96dfdf79be0f). My standard workflow is "show me the top N tasks in a list sorted by Priority Score." This is currently impractical via MCP for these reasons: clickup_filter_tasks returns task name, status, priority, assignees, tags, and due_date — but NOT custom_fields. Even when I scope to a single list (901614537027) with subtasks=false, the response strips the custom field data. clickup_search has the same limitation — custom_fields not in the response payload. The only MCP tool that returns custom_fields is clickup_get_task, which is one task per call. For a list of 50 tasks, sorting by a custom field requires 50 sequential get_task calls — minutes of latency, very heavy on tokens, and a poor experience for the end user. The underlying ClickUp REST API (GET /api/v2/list/{list_id}/task) supports include_closed and subtasks parameters and DOES return custom_fields in the response. The MCP wrapper appears to be stripping or not passing through this field. Requested fixes (any one would solve it): A. Add an include_custom_fields=true parameter to clickup_filter_tasks (and clickup_search) that returns the full custom_fields array per task, matching the REST API behavior. B. Add a server-side sort_by_custom_field parameter to clickup_filter_tasks so users can request "top N tasks in list X sorted by custom field Y descending" in a single call. C. Add a new tool clickup_list_tasks_with_fields (or rename one of the existing) that wraps GET /list/{list_id}/task with the full payload returned, including custom_fields. Option A is the smallest change and unblocks every "sort by custom field" workflow without breaking existing callers. For context: my Priorities space has Active (3 tasks max), This Week (~50 tasks), and Someday (~80 tasks) all using this same Priority Score custom field. Every Monday I need to sort each list by Priority Score to drive promotions/demotions. Right now I either screenshot the ClickUp UI sort or burn 100+ get_task calls. Both are workarounds, neither is acceptable for an automated workflow. Happy to test any beta or pre-release fix. Thanks, Todd Welch

I am really liking the LineUp feature and use it to help create a shortlist of what I should be focusing on for my day. However, tasks marked as done currently still show in the LineUp which means I have to do in and remove them manually. That's an extra click that could be saved if tasks marked as done were automatically removed from the lineup!
