Use Personal List in ClickUp

Use Personal List in ClickUp on Mobile

The Personal List in the ClickUp mobile app gives you a private space to collect, view, and manage tasks that matter to you, while still staying connected to work across your Workspace.

This guide walks you through how to open your Personal List, add and manage tasks, and customize your view from your phone or tablet.

What is the Personal List in ClickUp?

The Personal List is a dedicated List tied to your account. It is designed for quick capture and organization of tasks that are personal to you but still live inside your ClickUp Workspace.

Tasks in your Personal List can be:

  • Used for personal to-dos you do not want to mix into team Spaces.
  • Linked to work in other areas of ClickUp through relationships or fields.
  • Viewed alongside team tasks using filters and views.

You can access this List from the Home section of the mobile app, making it easy to jump into your own work at any time.

Access your Personal List in the ClickUp mobile app

You can open your Personal List from the Home screen in the mobile app. The exact navigation may vary slightly depending on platform, but the core steps are the same.

Open Personal List from ClickUp Home

  1. Open the ClickUp mobile app and sign in if needed.
  2. Tap the Home icon from the bottom navigation bar.
  3. From Home, look for the section showing your personal tasks or Personal List.
  4. Tap the Personal List entry to open it and view your items.

Once opened, you will see tasks that are added directly to this List, organized by the view options available on mobile.

Switch between Personal List and other ClickUp views

From Home, you can switch between the Personal List and other work-focused views.

  1. Tap Home to return to the main Home screen.
  2. Select other sections such as Today, Overdue, or Assigned to Me to see different sets of tasks from across ClickUp.
  3. Tap your Personal List again at any time to get back to your personal tasks.

This makes it simple to move between your private work and shared work inside ClickUp without losing track of what you need to do.

Add tasks to your Personal List in ClickUp

You can add tasks directly to your Personal List from within the List or from other places in the mobile app.

Create a task inside your Personal List

  1. Open the ClickUp app and navigate to Home.
  2. Tap your Personal List.
  3. Tap the + Task button or similar action at the bottom of the screen.
  4. Enter a task name that clearly describes what you need to do.
  5. Optionally, set fields such as due date, priority, description, or assignee.
  6. Tap Save or Create to add the task to your Personal List.

The new task appears in your Personal List right away and can be updated at any time from the mobile app.

Quickly capture personal tasks in ClickUp

When you are on the go, you can still capture personal work without searching through different Spaces.

  • Use the global + Task button in the ClickUp app, then select your Personal List as the location.
  • Convert notes or reminders into tasks and choose the Personal List as the List destination.
  • Use search to find your Personal List quickly if you have many Lists in ClickUp.

Keeping these tasks in one place helps you separate your own work from team projects while still using the same productivity system.

Manage Personal List tasks in ClickUp

After tasks are added, you can manage them with the same powerful tools you use elsewhere in ClickUp.

Update task details from the Personal List

  1. Open your Personal List from Home.
  2. Tap a task to open its details.
  3. Edit the task title, description, or custom fields as needed.
  4. Adjust the due date or start date to keep scheduling up to date.
  5. Change the status to reflect progress, such as Open, In Progress, or Complete.
  6. Tap back to return to the List view when you are done.

These changes sync across your Workspace, so if a task is connected to other locations in ClickUp, updates will show there as well.

Organize how you see tasks in the Personal List

You can adjust how tasks display in your Personal List to match your workflow.

  • Sort tasks by due date, priority, or other properties available on mobile.
  • Filter tasks to view only items that are overdue, due soon, or have a specific status.
  • Change the view type if the mobile app supports multiple views for the Personal List, such as List or Board style.

These changes help you review your Personal List quickly and focus on what matters most.

Use ClickUp Personal List with the rest of your work

Your Personal List works best when used alongside other areas of your Workspace. It acts as a hub for your own items while still being part of the same system as your team work in ClickUp.

Connect Personal List tasks to other ClickUp items

Depending on your Workspace setup and plan, you can enhance Personal List tasks by:

  • Adding relationships to tasks stored in other Spaces or Folders.
  • Using fields to track how personal actions support larger goals managed in ClickUp.
  • Commenting or mentioning teammates if a personal task relates to shared projects.

This keeps everything linked without mixing your personal tasks directly into team Lists.

Stay productive with ClickUp on mobile

Using the Personal List on mobile is most effective when you build a simple routine.

  1. Start your day in the ClickUp app on the Home screen.
  2. Review your Personal List to see your top priorities.
  3. Check other Home sections, such as tasks assigned to you from shared Spaces.
  4. Capture new tasks into your Personal List as they come up.
  5. Update statuses and due dates throughout the day to keep your plan realistic.

This approach helps you manage both life and work in one place with ClickUp while staying organized on your phone.
