Natural Language Processing
When setting a start date or due date, you can either select a specific date on the calendar, or type in your desired date just as you would speak.
Type in "tomorrow at 2 pm", or "next week", and a due date will be set for that time automatically!
Editing and Deleting a Due Date
Just as in setting a due date, you can also edit a due date anywhere it appears. Just click on the due date and you'll get a drop-down to select a new due date.
To delete a due date, hover your mouse over a due date and an X icon will appear. Click on the icon and you will delete the due date.
Sorting and Filtering by Due Date
Once you've enabled due dates within a Space, you can utilize them to sort and filter your tasks in List View.
Just click on the filter button or select the Due Date sorting option from the columns shown above your list of tasks!
Pro Tip with Calendar View
