Stay Updated with the Watcher Feature in zipBoard
In collaborative projects, team members often need updates on tasks they’re not directly assigned to. Constantly checking for changes or relying on manual updates can be inefficient, leading to missed information and delays.
The Solution: Watcher Feature in zipBoard
We’ve just launched the Watcher List feature in zipBoard! Now, you can effortlessly keep track of tasks you're interested in—even if you’re not directly assigned to them. This ensures that you stay informed without cluttering your inbox or being added as an assignee unnecessarily.
How Does It Work?
By adding a teammate as a Watcher, they will receive all notifications related to that task. This is perfect for project managers, reviewers, or anyone who needs real-time updates on progress.
How to Add a Watcher to a Task
- Open the task where you want to add a watcher.
- Click on the Watchers tab.
- Type your teammate’s name in the text box and select them from the dropdown.
- Done! The selected user(s) will now receive updates about the task.
💡 Tip: You can add multiple watchers to the same task to ensure key stakeholders stay informed.
