News in Freelo

We enjoy changes. They move us forward.

2/2025

New

  • New addition for Outlook allows you to convert an email to a task in Freelo with one click. The task name, assignment and attachments are automatically filled in, and you can directly select the project, To-Do list, solver and deadline. No more retyping - you save time and have everything neatly in one place.

  • Freelo now supports login and registration via Google accountwhich means a significantly faster process and easy access without entering a password. One-click login saves time and simplifies account management.

  • All updates and improvements can now be found directly in our app. News is automatically displayed at launch, so you'll never miss important changes, new features and improvements again!

Enhancements

  • At adding a new user now you can more easily select the right project or template thanks to clear filtering. New tabs "Projects", "Templates" and "All" will speed up the navigation and the whole process of inviting members to your team.

  • Each filter on the dashboard now remembers its display settings. You can customize the columns, their width and preferred view (table, rows, timeline), and the app remembers everything. Maximum flexibility and clarity to suit your needs.

  • On the dashboard, you can now view explicit task completion date instead of the current "Completed 40 days after deadline" style view. More accurate information helps with evaluating efficiency and planning next steps.

Change

  • Moving and copying tasks is now clearer with instant options instead of a dropdown menu. You can immediately see what happens to the task and get additional explanations thanks to tooltips. This makes working with tasks faster and more intuitive.

  • The "Reports and Time Estimates" section is now split into two separate options. You can easily switch between financial statements and time estimates, giving you better control over your finances and project scheduling.

10/2024

New
  • You can now view User Summaries in the task report overview, which groups the reports by individual users, allowing you to see their total logged hours and reports on the task.
  • When uploading a cover image for a task, you can now choose whether to keep the original format without cropping it.
Enhancements
  • We have improved the All users page – it now offers quick search, advanced filters, and a unified design with other pages, making user management easier and streamlining your work.
  • We have also updated the filtering option in project reports, where you can now easily shift the time period by clicking on arrows. This allows you to quickly move through the selected date range without unnecessary adjustments.
Change
  • We've modified the management of hourly rates – the captain has their own non-lockable rate. The Admins can lock or unlock hourly rates for other admins and users. An invited user cannot lock or unlock their own hourly rate.

07 & 08/2024

  • Now the title image of the task in kanban will also be displayed in the modal window when you click the task detail preview.
  • Now, after sending comments you can exit the text window using the ESC key and go straight to further editing, especially using keyboard shortcuts.
  • We've expanded for clarity Dashboard data export in CSV format.
    • Now you will find the subtasks next to which task they are related to.
    • We merged identical custom project fields in the export into one column.
  • We have extended the API documentation to include an endpoint for hourly rate users.

6/2024

  • Now it is possible to invite whole teams to a project at the same time. With a few clicks, you can now invite a whole team of people to a project without having to invite each individual user one by one.
  • It is now possible to add an image to a task in Kanban. This makes the Kanban view even more visual and user-friendly.
  • We have added the ability to set relations of tasks directly in the templates so that when the project is extracted from the template, the task relations settings are preserved.
  • We've modified the label management options to eliminate unwanted editing of labels by another owner, but to preserve the ability to select any label across projects/from different label owners:
    • Editing labels directly on the task is now only possible on your labels or if you are the Project manager and at the same time the Admin in the project.
    • In Label Management the labels are now grouped by their owners to minimize unwanted modifications of other people's labels. Again, the user must be the Project manager under a given owner to see and administer labels from another owner's projects in the settings.
  • You can now turn on minimalist notifications in the settings, which take up less screen space (useful when using Freelo on your phone, for example).

5/2024

  • When writing task descriptions or comments, it is now possible to use the "/" keyboard shortcut to open the Quick Add menu - this feature can be used to quickly mention or create notes and tasks (including all the attributes) directly whilst composing the text. Additionally, other items can also be mentioned (e.g. To-Do lists).
  • Now you can more easily check which users are covered by your licenses after we changed the order of the sections in the User management category in the Business panel. You will now find the With licence section first, and the All section (users you share any project with outside of your company) second.
  • We have modified the system of assigning a saved client to a project - now the name of the company will be displayed in the list in addition to the name of the contact person.
  • We added a keyboard shortcut for editing custom fields - just press "C" anywhere on the task detail .
  • We have extended the API documentation with:

4/2024

  • We have added a new category to the Reports section - Tasks with a reminder. This opens up a new way for you to have an overview of all the reminders you have set and to manage them in one place.
  • We've added additional settings when creating a new To-Do list. When you create a To-Do list, you can now directly select a default solver for all future tasks created in it. At the same time, you can also adjust the user access permissions to the To-Do list.
  • We've added a warning when commenting on a task that is overdue - Freelo will prompt you to postpone the deadline. This will prevent you from handing a task past its due date to a colleague.
  • You can now view exact dates of the task deadlines on the Dashboard. For example, if the deadline for a task is May 1, you will see a calendar icon with that date on the Dashboard instead of Due today.
  • Now you can set solver and deadline for tasks directly in the Mind Map without having to click on the modal window with task details in it.
  • Now you can change the due date using the "T" keyboard shortcut directly when typing a comment in a task discussion.
  • We've adjusted the settings for recurring tasks with an annual frequency - you can now choose how frequently to repeat the task (every 2 years, every 5 years, etc.).

3/2024

  • 🎉 We have launched a multi-project Timeline - its big advantage is the ability to view tasks across multiple projects.
    • With the hierarchy view option, you can see all tasks across projects in the panel on the left, even if they are not currently visible in the selected time period on the Timeline.
    • Now, you can adjust the width of the panel on the left side, so that the full name of the project or the To-Do list is always visible.
    • You can use the wrap function to hide tasks from a project with one click in order to increase clarity in the Timeline. You can additionally hide all the empty rows to increase clarity as well.
    • In the multi-project Timeline, you can filter tasks using custom filters.
  • We have perfected the relation conflict check in the Project Timeline.
  • You can now create tasks directly in the Timeline even when you set sorting by Solver.
  • We've added the ability to complete all subtasks in one click.
  • We've added the Out of Office feature. This makes it easy to set when you will not be available in Freelo - other users will see an Away badge next to your avatar everywhere in Freelo.
  • We've expanded the options for reacting to comments to include short text responses and emojis.
  • Now you can add an emoji as an icon for saved custom filters on the Dashboard to differentiate and navigate better between filters.
  • Now it is easier to distinguish between tasks and subtasks when invoicing - the difference is in the indentation and different colouring when you hover over the sub/task with the mouse (the background colour for tasks is blue, for subtasks it's yellow).
  • We've adjusted the transcoding so that all videos in the comments play smoothly.
  • Newly, Freelo remembers the last selected video playback speed and automatically applies it to other videos you watch.
  • Newly, on the Dashboard you can change the order of filters using drag&drop not only of custom filters, but also the default filters that every user has in Freelo.

  • We have modified preserving the history of comments that are being edited. It is now possible to return to a written (but not yet saved) comment at any time, even if you are editing an existing comment (previously this was only the case when writing a new comment).
  • Newly, the section Payments displays both the price for the paid plan without VAT as well as with it for better clarity. Previously, only the price without VAT was displayed on this page.
  • We have improved the API search - now you can apply a filter on task names when listing tasks on the API.
  • We have extended the API documentation with:

2/2024

1/2024

  • Newly added time function estimates to tasks allows you to divide the total time capacity between users.
  • Now the captain can set his own hourly rate across all projects.
  • Newly tasks created via Gmail add-on can be transferred to Freela icluding all the attachments from the email.
  • Now when you embed a YouTube video in a comment, you can use a special URL when sharing from YouTube to ensure the video starts at a pre-selected time. At that time, the video embedded in the comment will start playing.
  • Short videos (in the format „Shorts“ ) can now be played directly in the comment (without having to click through the link to a new window).
  • Now the task followers are also transferred to the project created from the template.
  • Now comments in the code can be indented to the next line in the editor using a tab.
  • We've added a one-click option to notes and files to copy their URL to the clipboard - just like it works with tasks.

  • We've enhanced the discussion to include the possibility to sort comments by newest or oldest.
  • We've improved notifications:
    • Notification filtering - in addition to being able to filter from the oldest notifications, you can now also select only a specific time frame. This makes it much easier to respond to more notifications after a longer absence (e.g. a vacation).
    • Appearance of notifications about completed tasks - now the name of the completed task is crossed out in the notification.
  • We've improved the task search when setting up relations between tasks - now you can link a task by its URL in addition to its name.

  • We've improved the notifications for new comments on tasks, so that if there are multiple comments in a discussion, the notifications will be grouped into one and you won't receive each one individually.
  • We have improved the two-step SMS verification so that you don't have to manually rewrite the code - now, after receiving the SMS, a window pops up to confirm its automatic completion.
  • We have adjusted the time limit for deleting the task description in the template (now it can be deleted at any time, unlike task descriptions in active projects, where the time limit is 15 minutes).
  • We've modified the endpoint for creating a task in the API documentation so that the author of a task created using the API doesn't automatically become its follower.
  • We now accept payments in EUR in addition to CZK.

21 December 2023

  • We've improved drag & drop task movement in kanban. Now you can just drag a task anywhere in the range of the entire column (no need to move it directly under the last task) and it will be automatically added to the To-Do list.
  • We've expanded the number of labels displayed on the task detail, so now you no longer need to view the labels over the three dots if there are more than two (applies to the desktop version).
  • We've modified the icon for the video embedded in the comment, so it's clear at a glance what type of file it is.
  • We've adjusted the size limit for profile photos - they can now be up to 5 MB.

  • Newly you can see week numbers in calendar.
  • Newly the cursor disappears from the editing form after saving a comment using Cmd/Ctrl + Enter, so if you want to use keyboard shortcuts straight away, you can and you don't need to worry about accidentally typing in the editing form again.

  • We have extended the API documentation with:
    • endpoint to filter the invoice to a specific project and download it in CSV format,
