Projects
Organize and track your writing progress with projects, checklists, and tasks. Set a citation style.
- Desktop: Select Create project.
Mobile: Tap Projects, then tap + in the upper right.
- Enter the Project name, Project type, Project due date, Project due time, Project length, and Citation style.
By default, all projects are due at 10 AM on the due date. - To receive email alerts and calendar events about project and checklist task due dates, switch the toggles on.
- Select Save.
To help track writing progress, use the four checklists: Planning, Researching, Writing and revising, and Editing.
- Select the project name, or, from the three-dot menu next to the project name, select View project.
- Optionally edit the checklist titles.
On the Project details screen, go to the Checklists section.
From the three-dot menu, select Edit checklists.
You can add your own tasks to a checklist.
- From the Checklist Progress page, open a checklist and select Add task.
Enter a task description of 75 characters or less.
Optionally set a task due date. All tasks are due at 12 AM.
You can have up to fourteen tasks in each checklist.
To delete a task, select Edit checklists, then select the Delete icon and Save. - To reorder tasks, select the Edit icon.
Open the checklist and reorder tasks by dragging and dropping.
Reordering a task doesn't change the due date; do that manually. - After you're finished editing, select Save.
Mark a task complete by filling in its check box. As you mark tasks complete, your project progress increases.
