Task comments in Messages
The comments on a task list are written on the list itself, but you can follow them from Messages too, next to your conversations.
Read a task list’s comments from Messages
Section titled “Read a task list’s comments from Messages”- Open the project and tap Messages in the toolbar at the top of the plan.
- Scroll to Task Comments, after Direct Messages.
- Tap a list’s row. Its comments open over the plan, as they do from a notification.
Each row is a task list, named Task List # and its number, with who wrote the newest comment, what it says (or Media, Document or Plan sheet when it has no words) and when. The list with the newest comment is at the top.
Which lists are there
Section titled “Which lists are there”A list shows under Task Comments when it has comments and you:
- created it,
- have a task on it,
- have commented on it, or
- were mentioned in one of its comments.
Unread comments
Section titled “Unread comments”A dot beside a row means there is a comment you haven’t read. Reading the comments clears it, on this device and on your other devices. A new comment moves its list to the top, with its dot, while you watch. Your own comments leave no dot.
Good to know
Section titled “Good to know”- Search above the list finds a task list by its number, or by “task”.
- A comment you didn’t send is kept as a draft, and its row says Draft: and how it starts.
- On a tablet or computer, the section is in the list beside the open conversation, and a tap opens the comments the same way.
- Notifications about task comments are turned on and off with Task Messages in Settings: see Notification settings.
