more I love the idea of a native desktop app for Jira! We spend so much time in our system, so it feels nice to have a slick interface that is easy on the eyes.If this app adds some key features I would use it instead of the web interface.Key features it’s missing:- Development details - we need access to linked branch and PR info and links to those.- Filtering a a dashboard to a user’s items. A huge part of our workflow is looking at the board together as a team and clicking each person’s face to filter the board on just their assigned issuesI think the developers are off to a good start though!

I am desparately trying to get us to move to Asana, which has had a functional desktop app for over a decade. This app is missing so many basic features, and displays information so poorly as to be essentially useless
