Backlog 2.0

The new backlog is out of beta, and the old backlog is no more.
This means everyone now has a dedicated page for organizing the tasks in your backlog.
The new backlog page is our first time deviating from the kanban card style view. We think that a list view is better than a card view when you've got a ton of tasks to scroll through.
You can still view the backlog in the more compact card view in the right panel, but when you want to do some proper backlog grooming, or brain dumping, the dedicated backlog view should feel much roomier.
Available on web an mobile
The new backlog is the
 backlog option in both the web and mobile apps. On the web app, you can access it via the new backlog button in the left panel. On the mobile app, you can access it via the new backlog button in the bottom drawer.
Prioritizing tasks using time buckets
The new backlog is structured into time buckets:
Someday in the next week or two
Someday in the next month
Someday in the next quarter
Someday in the next year
Someday
Never
This structure gives a flexible but systematic way to differentiate which tasks in your backlog are worth prioritizing sooner rather than later.
Organizing tasks using folders
You can create folders in your backlog if you've got too many to keep in a single list. You can have folders for projects, life areas, or whatever categories you like to group your backlogged tasks in.
Folders are just for the backlog. Once a task gets scheduled to a particular day, the folder designation will be hidden.
