Kanbana: Organize Everything 4+

New Simplified Design
Even though Kanbana was powerful and simple to use before, we thought through the app experience from beginning to end. We have made the design even more intuitive and simple to use, including a new tutorial for new users.

Horizontal (Kanban) and Vertical Views
We wanted to make the mobile experience even easier to use, particularly moving cards between lists. Therefore, we have introduced horizontal (Kanban) and vertical views in the mobile app. This feature allows users to easily switch the view of their boards from the classic horizontal Kanban view (with a column format) to a new vertical view where everything can be seen on one screen by opening and collapsing lists and scrolling down the phone.

Create Boards from Templates
To make task management even more intuitive, users can now create boards from templates. This feature allows users to quickly set up new boards and gives them some ideas into how boards can be arranged for work, home, shopping, school. etc. This will save time and effort and add a creative and fun vibe to task management. Users can create new boards from these templates and still fully customize them to suit their needs and personality.

Selectable Dark Mode
It is well understood that many users prefer a darker theme for their apps. Our iOS app previously had Dark Mode, but it was tied to the user’s setting on their device. Now, users can select in the app whether to present the app in dark or light mode, regardless of their phone’s dark mode setting.

Bold and Muted Colors
In response to user feedback, we have introduced a feature in the new Profile section for users to select to have their cards displayed using Bold or Muted Colors. This provides a more customizable look and feel for the app. We had already introduced this in our web app last year, and based on positive user response and consistency, have included it in the newest release of our mobile apps.

New Approach to Kanban
The new app launch has also reimagined the traditional Kanban approach. We wanted to merge the best of what Kanban and To-Do lists have to offer. In this new version, users can simply click on cards to indicate they are complete. This eliminates the need for a ‘Done’ or ‘Completed’ column (which is the case in classic Kanban boards), although users can still opt to use one if they prefer.
