iOS: From Idea to Action Faster with Share Sheet & Lock Screen Shortcuts

Griply Share Sheet shortcut and Griply Lock Screen buttons

We’ve heard your feedback: capturing tasks and accessing your goals on mobile should be faster. This update is all about speed and reducing friction for your mobile experience. With the new Share Sheet extension and Lock Screen Shortcuts, you can capture ideas in seconds and access your most important goals straights from your lock screen.

Features

  • Share Sheet Extension: Capture ideas and tasks instantly from any app. Use the iOS Share Sheet to send links, notes, or text directly to Griply and turn inspiration into action without breaking your flow.

  • Lock Screen Shortcuts: Get to what matters faster. Add new Griply shortcuts to your lock screen for immediate access to your Today view, Calendar, Habits, or even a specific Goal or Life Area.

  • Feature Request Board: Help us build the future of Griply. You can now request new features, report bugs, and vote on what we should build next: all directly from your Profile screen.

Goal Impact, Trash Page, and Bullet Paste

Goal impact set per goal in the goal table

This release helps you see what really moves the needle on your goals, gives you a safety net for anything you delete, and turns a pasted list of bullets into ready-to-edit tasks in one step. You can now set an impact level per goal to show how much it contributes to your life area (or how much a subgoal contributes to its parent goal), recover deleted tasks and habits from a new Trash page, and create multiple tasks at once by pasting bullets into the inline task field.

Features

  • Goal Impact: Set an impact level per goal to show how much it contributes to your life area, or how much a subgoal contributes to its main goal. Use it to focus on the goals that really matter.

  • Unified Trash Page: Delete with confidence. The new Trash page is a dedicated space to browse and recover tasks or habits you've removed.

  • Better habit planning in Upcoming (Desktop only): You can now add extra repetitions for next week, or stop "repeat daily until completed" for specific weeks, right from the habit upcoming column.

  • Paste bullets to create multiple tasks: Paste a bulleted list into the inline task field and Griply opens a dialog with each bullet as a task. Edit them before creating, and assign goal, priority, dates, and more.

Improvements

  • Smarter Habit Scheduling: Habits with targets (like 2x per week) are no longer planned on the first day or two of the week. They now repeat daily until your target is met, so you can hit your goal on the days that work for you.

  • Simplified habit schedule menu: We merged the "repeat" and "target" options into a single menu, making it more intuitive to set up a habit schedule.

  • Goal Impact filter: Filter your tasks based on the new goal impact property to zoom in on high-impact work.

  • Individual habit entries in Completed: You now see every completed entry of a habit in the completed view, not just the last one.

  • New goal table (Desktop only): Edit progress, impact, start date, and deadline directly from the goal table, no need to open each goal.

  • Completed habit entries in the calendar: Completed habits now appear in the calendar on the day you actually completed them, not just on the day they were scheduled.

  • Dedicated goal metrics dialog (Desktop only): Goal metrics now have their own dialog so you can edit them separately from the rest of the goal.

Fixes

  • Desktop: Fixed calendar events from 21:00 to 09:00 being shown as all-day events across two days.

  • iOS: Fixed a goal progress bug where progress was not aligned with desktop.

  • iOS: Fixed not being able to set a start date when adding a new habit with "x times per month or year".

  • iOS: Fixed adding a description to a new habit not working.

  • iOS: Fixed drag and drop not working in Upcoming.

  • iOS: Fixed the date selection sheet being cut off when "show borders" was enabled in accessibility settings.

  • iOS: Fixed goal progress input being cleared when changing the date after entering progress.

  • iOS: Fixed duplicating sub tasks not always working.

  • iOS: Potential fix for the keyboard not responding correctly when entering a new goal progress update.

  • iOS: Fixed tasks from subgoals linked to a life area sometimes showing under "no life area".

Smart Lists: Saved Views, Quick Planning, and More

We’re excited to introduce Smart Lists, a powerful new way to organize, filter, and find exactly the tasks you need. By combining filters across life areas, goals, tags, and priorities, you can build saved dynamic views that update in real time. We’ve also added some great shortcuts to make your planning faster than ever and fixed a few bugs for a much smoother experience. Whether you’re crushing "This Week's Priorities," staying ahead of "Overdue Deadlines," or finding those "Quick Wins," Smart Lists help you move from searching to focused execution.

Read our help center article to see use cases and examples on how to get started.

Features

  • Saved Dynamic Views: Build your own custom views by combining any filters (Life Area, Goal, Priority, Duration, etc.) and save them for instant access.

  • Sidebar Integration: Access your Smart Lists directly from the sidebar under "All Tasks," complete with live task counts.

  • Plan your week using smart lists: This is a game-changer for your weekly review. Switch between Inbox, All Tasks, Smart Lists, and Tags instantly when planning your day or week using the list selector (shortcut S).

Improvements

  • Smarter Date Filters: When you filter for "Today," "This Week," "This Quarter," or "This Year," Griply now automatically includes overdue tasks. This ensures you never miss a task that fell behind, keeping your backlog visible and manageable.

  • New "Next 14 Days" Filter: Get better visibility into your immediate future with a dedicated two-week rolling window.

Fixes

  • Fixed a small issue where the background of a menu could scroll away with the content.

  • Fixed a bug where the "download iPhone app" banner was incorrectly shown on iPad mini.

Public Roadmap, Fixes and Improvements

Due to high demand, we’ve moved to a new feature request system to make it easier to suggest ideas, vote on what matters most, and follow our public roadmap. After updating, you’ll find a “Share feedback” button in the menu where you can request features or report bugs.

We’re starting fresh in this new board. While we still have your previous feedback saved, we’d love to see what’s most important to you right now. We’ve added the most popular requests so you can upvote your favorites. When reporting a bug, please include as much detail as possible, such as screenshots or screen recordings.

We’re excited to hear your ideas and continue building Griply together 💛

In this update, we’ve also included several fixes and improvements.

Improvements

  • Fixed an issue where skipping an overdue habit would still show an earlier occurrence.

  • Push notification timing now updates correctly when you change timezones.

  • Fixed an issue where moving subgoals to another goal could still show their tasks in the original goal due to a stored filter.

  • The desktop app window can now be moved around from the top bar in all side panels.

  • Fixed cases where tasks couldn’t be dragged onto the calendar on the Today page.

  • Improved goal progress calculation in certain edge cases.

Fixes and Improvements

Desktop

  • Today: You can now create multiple tasks in one go, without needing to click “New Task” each time.

  • Goal View: When dragging a task inside a goal or life area, a preview of the task is now shown below your cursor.

  • Natural Language Input: Entering “next month” was incorrectly recognized as “next mon,” setting the date to next Monday instead of the same day next month. This has been fixed.

  • Goal Detail: When a goal had no tasks and you created the first one, the input field lost focus. Focus now remains in the input field, allowing you to create multiple tasks quickly.

  • You can choose to show completed tasks in goal and life area details.

  • Breadcrumbs in the goal detail view for faster navigation, and a small motivational boost by showing which goal and life area your current work contributes to.

  • Overdue tasks are now always sorted from old to new. The applied sorting won't affect the overdue sorting anymore.

Fixes

  • Habits could appear before their start date if the start date was within the current week.

  • When you removed the last habit occurrence in a specific week or month, a skip is no longer added on the last day.
