Follow new updates and improvements to liftOS.

August 16th 2024

liftUI 2.0 has been in the works for the past 2 weeks and brings much-requested improvements to working with your tools and people inside liftOS.

Our focus with this update is on keeping the same level of simplicity and organization but improving the flexibility, speed, and ease of use of our user interface.

Watch the pre-update information:

This liftUI 2.0 update will bring:

  1. simplified 1 layer sidebar

    ℹī¸ making navigating between spaces easier

  2. Quick app and folder adding option

    ℹī¸ to help jot down info quickly

  3. Ability to open apps from different spaces

    ℹī¸ to increase flexibility when using tools

  4. Ability to move apps between spaces by drag and drop

    ℹī¸ Flexibility in usage 

  5. A new private area to organize personal work or drafts until they are ready to share by dropping it to the “shared” spaces area

    ℹī¸ Helps working quickly with tools

  6. No more sections (logic remains but everything is a Space or a folder now.

    ℹī¸ Simplicity

  7. Unlimited sub folders with assignments going top to down

    ℹī¸ Customisation

  8. Removes navbar and instead made a new quick action bar at the right giving apps more vertical space

With this change, we are also fixing many bugs we had with Favourites, Sync Apps, and Home page tools and eliminating lines of code to make using liftOS a faster, smoother, and more enjoyable experience.

When ready, you’ll automatically be transferred to liftUI 2.0 and your data will be fully migrated to this UI keeping your Section > Space > Folder > App structure and translating it inside the new UI automatically.

July 26th 2024

With this update, we are introducing liftCalendar. To help you visualize your todos & projects based on days, weeks and months. Also with this update, we redesigned the date picker to help you easily add dates to your todos. Read more to find out what’s new 👇


View all todos that are assigned to you at a specific time with the Global Calendar

Create tasks directly from the Global Calendar or view your existing tasks all together in one Calendar view.

If a task is assigned to you and has a time selected, it will automatically appear in the Global Calendar. Tasks are separated by color (colors are inherited from Tags) so if you assign any Tag to group your todos, your calendar will have the same color system automatically.

In the Global Calendar view, you can only see your tasks, (seeing teammates coming soon) but inside the Todo App Calendar view you can see all tasks in Calendar view 🙌.


View all the todos in a single App inside the Calendar view built within Todos.

You can do this by simply toggling it within the App. Here todos will also inherit tag colors, and you can change the tag from within the Calendar view. This view will show all tasks in the Calendar view regardless if whether it has an assignee or not. The only requirement for a task to be shown in this view is that it has a specific time selected.


A beautifully re-designed date picker to help you quickly add dates to your tasks

We redesigned the date picker and added a time picker as well as suggested dates to help you pick a date quickly and productively đŸĢļ

We hope you enjoy the new Calendar and features we launched with this update to help you organize your days, weeks and months more productively with liftOS 🙌


What’s next for Calendar?

All-day tasks, zooming in and out of time ranges & Google Calendar integration

Coming shortly after 🙏

July 9th 2024

With this update, we added the much-requested Grid-view to our Files App, thumbnails to PDF + Images, and a new way to open Files inside Todos.

Toggle to the new Grid-view

With the new Grid view option insides the Files App, you can get hold of information by glancing at thumbnails of files to find what you need quickly!

View files side by side in relation-view

We are a big fan of viewing information side by side, now with this update, files open in our relation view allowing you to see files and other apps side by side 🙌

We hope this update improves how you work daily with liftOS and improves your productivity đŸĢļ

more to come soon (some easter eggs are in this update đŸĨš)
