UPDATE: Following up my earlier review, ClickUp continues to surprise and delight. The UI allows so much more flexibility than other apps, and can be customised to allow greater visibility when managing multiple projects. Anyone who is part of App Development knows how difficult it is to provide ‘simple’ solutions. ClickUp is pretty much the only Project Management app you will need. If you are a sole developer, or even just a hobbyist, ClickUp is one app you need to try out. You won’t be disappointed! (PS: I don’t work for ClickUp, but I sure wish I did!)ORIGINAL: As a developer, much of my own work has centred on using Xcode and Excel to log issues. This became cumbersome when working either alone as part of an external team, or more lately because of multiple titles in the App Store. ClickUp is actually far more flexible than almost all of the other apps of similar use. It has an app for iPad and iPhone, and you use the web app for the Mac. I came to ClickUp as its main competitor simply stopped supporting the Mac version of their app. It was obviously time for a step change to my workflow and ClickUp ticked nearly every box. For free it gives even lone developers a huge “lift” to basic requirements. Very easy to use and it syncs seamlessly to every device. Great!

This new upgraded app is intuitive, simple yet not lacking the core features that enable workflow management on the go. I love the user interface and the new dock which includes a navigation centre - super useful! I also love the overall styling and feel. I think ClickUp have done a good job with this first release. Things I want to see improve:-Auto add assignee-Navigation icon takes you to home every time (currently it’s a back button when your in a certain area)-Ability to customise statuses, layouts etc on the go too. This would take it closer to a project management level, like the web/desktop version.Couple of bugs, but ClickUp support is literally platinum, even without premium. Let’s trust this app will get better and better, and that ClickUp will invest sufficient time and energy into it, as it’s a genuine cornerstone to effective workflow management.

Why hasn’t ClickUp yet provided the ability to speak text content or read content (especially activity section of tasks)? This is a basic that is missing on the app! Totally excludes people with dyslexia or who have low vision! Also you should be able to tab through sections and custom fields more easily. The UI looks very busy and clunky so why not provide a more simplified mobile view option with the most critical custom fields that you can choose for mobile devices? Dedicated mobile page views that you can customise would be really helpful therefore. Also, make the AI available on mobile fully so you can query tasks and lists more specifically rather than jumping into summaries - again speech is ideal for talking to Brain.

Don't let shiny syndrome and lies distract you. People and attitude is all what matters. Always test behavior and ignore words on the surface.I have been using ClickUp since 2018 long before it became a hype. A lot of businesses move there from other tools due to good UX and because it offers so much for free. Sounds too good to be true. I have been recommending this tool also to anyone else. But no more.I stopped recommending ClickUp to clients because the team was just ghosting me and their "Chief Creative Officer" blocked me. Their newly hired Executive Assistant after securing a job during COVID instantly changed and went from being caring, while without a job and struggling, to "All the best" as soon as she got a job. And most importantly their CEO doesn't even care.Tough times reveal real character, true friends and partners.They delete any negative feedback and try to show that they care about their customers, but only in words. Action speaks louder.Always remember that nothing is free and wonder what else they might hide, and, like social media, know not just everything about you, but everything about your business, your tasks, your plans.What are YOU looking for in partners?
