List, kanban, and calendar views

Sunrise offers three ways to view and manage tasks.

List view

Best for quick scanning and batch operations.

  • See all tasks in a flat or grouped list
  • Sort by due date, priority, or position
  • Check off completed tasks
  • Add tasks inline

Kanban view

Best for visual workflow and drag-and-drop planning.

  • Tasks appear as cards in columns
  • Drag cards between columns (e.g., day columns in Upcoming, status columns in projects)
  • Add tasks to any column
  • See work distribution at a glance

Calendar view

Best for date-driven planning.

  • Tasks appear on their due dates
  • Calendar events overlay when Google Calendar is connected
  • Navigate by week or month
  • Spot scheduling conflicts

Switching views

Use the view toggle in the toolbar:

  • Available on Upcoming (list / kanban / calendar)
  • Available per project (list / kanban / calendar)

Your view preference is remembered per screen.
