Multiple assignees per action item (comments welcome)

released

Amin (Product @ Fellow)

Allow users to create multiple assignees per action item.

The two cases we are exploring are:

ALL assigned users must individually complete the item
ANY of the assigned users must complete the item

Tell us, which of these cases best fits your use case?

so on the browser it does show, but on the app it doesn't, even after refreshing. you tell me. Have to say your system here isn't very effective as trying to submit a reply is close to impossible, not sure why.

on the last part of the comment, it seems that on Chrome it works fine but on Edge it gives me errors again and again.

Shannon Lochead (Senior Product Manager @ Fellow)

Sorry, but I don't see these options when I try to assign a task. Looks just like it has so far.

Shannon Lochead (Senior Product Manager @ Fellow)

We're thrilled to announce the release of our most requested feature ever: multi-assignee action items!
With this new feature, you can choose between two different options:
* Complete by all is perfect for ensuring that everyone in your meeting completes the same action item, for example, requiring each participant to read through a report in advance of the meeting. 
* Complete by any allows for shared ownership, making it easier for team members to collaborate on tasks together, for example, two team members preparing a presentation together for an upcoming meeting. 
To get started, simply add an action item to an upcoming meeting note, select the assignee avatar, and toggle on allow multiple assignees.
This new feature is available for all workspaces on the Pro, Business and Enterprise plans.

Is it a possible to Assign to all? On the mobile app it only lets me assign to 8 people?

Shannon Lochead (Senior Product Manager @ Fellow)

Hi Josh Nieboer we'd like to better understand the issue you are experiencing so we can help get it resolved.

Can you message our support team in the chat bubble that shows in the lower right hand corner when you're in Fellow? I'll give them a heads up that you will be reaching out!

I'd prefer all users, because typically we want to assign everyone "homework."

Assign a Task to multiple users

Hector Figueroa

Hi,
I can't seem to be able to assign a task to multiple people. This is a common thing in our environment and projects. Is there a way to assign to multiple people that I have missed?
I've resorted to adding a sub/indented line and tagging the additional resources, but seems a bit excessive.
Thank you.

Need thiiiiiis!

Erika Munson

ALL! (So excited about this!)

Jess Osborn

ALL assigned users must individually complete the item

Kaisha Simmons

Yay! I've wanted this for a long time! I need all assigned users must individually complete the item

Mauricio Vasquez

First of all....AMAZING! In our case ANY of the assigned can complete the task, as far the task is done, any assigned can mark as done. Most of our tasks are end-goal orientated and not based on individuals.

When is the tentative ETA of this?
