Assign tasks to people

Assign a task when you want everyone to know who is responsible. A task can have more than one assignee if people share the work.

Assign responsibility

  1. Open a checklist and select the task.
  2. Find Assign in the details panel and open the people selector.
  3. Choose the people who should work on the task.
  4. Reopen the selector when you need to change or remove an assignment.

Who can be assigned?

A person must already have access to the checklist. Assignment is included with Family and Pro, but not Free or Plus. You also need permission to update the task. If someone is missing from the list, check their checklist access first.
