TeamworkPM’s Engine Room

What's new in this version?  

 It's almost easier to say what isn't!  Practically every screen has had a lick of paint, while some screens have been totally transformed.  We'll take a quick look at a few of the major changes here and leave you to discover the rest as you use the app.

File Attachments for Messages and Tasks

First up is perhaps the most requested feature: the ability to attach and view files.  Attachments are available on Tasks, Messages, Replies and Comments with support for attachments on Projects being rolled out soon after. 

You can upload and attach images directly from your device - great for when you're out and about as it turns your phone into a portable document scanner. It also comes with support for viewing most of the standard file types such Word, Excel, PDF, PNG, GIF.  

New "My Tasks" and Milestones Sections

In version 1.5 of the app, the whole top line of the Home Screen was taken up with Today, Pending, Overdue.  Tasks and Milestones were mixed across all three of those screens.  If you were looking for a task you thought was coming up but was actually late then you'd have back out and change screens.  With this update we've replaced those three with dedicated "My Tasks" and "Milestones" screens.  

My Tasks gathers all of your tasks into one place where they can be filtered by whether they're due today, are late or have no due date at all.  They can then be sorted by Priority, Project or Date.  Same for Milestones - it gathers all of your Milestones in one place and allows them to be filtered by Upcoming, Late or Completed. Should make it much easier to stay on track.

Message Viewer

Let's face it, the old style message screen wasn't that pretty.  So we've brought the styling over from new Task Viewer screen.  Not only does this look better but, as with the Task screen, this layout allow us to display more information without overwhelming the small screen.
