Move or copy tasks
Move a task when it belongs in a different checklist. Copy it when you want each checklist to keep its own version of the step.

Choose a destination
Open the task menu and select Move/ Copy, then choose a destination checklist.
- Select Move to place the task in the chosen checklist and remove it from the current one.
- Select Copy to add a separate copy to the destination while keeping the original.
- Select Cancel to make no change.
Move and Copy remain unavailable until you choose a destination.
The destination list contains checklists you own in the selected team. If the list is empty, you do not own an eligible checklist there that can receive the task.
Subtasks move or copy with their parent. Task names, notes, completion status, due dates, priorities, and the subtask structure are preserved. Attachments, assignments, answers, and other task fields are not included. The dialog warns specifically about attachments. Open the destination afterward and review anything that may need to change.
You can move or copy a task while offline. Checklist sends the change when you reconnect, so let it finish syncing before looking for the result on another device.
