Set task dependencies

Prevent a task from becoming ready until its prerequisite tasks are complete.

Where to find it

Task editor → Blocked by

How to use it

  1. Open the task that must wait.
  2. In Blocked by, select the tasks that must finish first.
  3. Save. Complete the prerequisites before expecting the dependent task to become available.
  4. Reopen the task to change the prerequisites when the work changes.

Limits and important details

  • Creating and editing dependency chains requires Pro. Free can still create tasks without prerequisites.
  • Existing prerequisites remain enforced after a downgrade. The app does not delete dependent tasks.
  • A task cannot depend on itself or create a circular dependency.
