Use ClickUp Reminders in My Tasks
The Reminders card in ClickUp My Tasks gives you a focused space to view, organize, and complete your personal reminders without digging through every list or project. This guide walks you through where to find the card, how each column works, and the fastest ways to manage your reminders day to day.
Reminders created anywhere in your workspace automatically appear in this card, so you can stay on top of quick notes, follow-ups, and action items alongside your regular tasks.
What the ClickUp Reminders card shows
The Reminders card in My Tasks displays all reminders assigned to you in a simple, sortable table. Each column helps you decide what to do next and when.
You will see the following columns by default:
- Reminder: The name or title of the reminder. Use clear, action-based names so you know exactly what to do.
- Start date: The date and time you plan to begin working on the reminder. This is optional but helpful for planning.
- Due date: The deadline for completing the reminder. Overdue reminders are easy to spot and prioritize.
- Flags: Icons that show key attributes such as priority, whether a reminder is recurring, and other important indicators depending on your configuration.
- List: The List that contains the reminder. This connects your reminder back to its wider context in ClickUp so you can jump to related work.
- Updated: The last time the reminder was changed. Use this to spot items that have not been touched in a while.
You can resize columns to fit longer titles or to focus on the details that matter most for your workflow.
Open the Reminders card in ClickUp My Tasks
You access the Reminders card directly inside My Tasks in ClickUp. Use the steps below when you want to review or process your personal reminders alongside your tasks.
Steps to open the ClickUp Reminders view
- From the sidebar, navigate to Home or directly to My Work, depending on your workspace layout.
- Select My Tasks to open your personal task view.
- Locate the Cards area on the right-hand side or in the layout section of the My Tasks page.
- Click the Reminders card to expand it. If it is hidden, use the layout options to enable the Reminders card.
Once opened, the Reminders card stays available so you can quickly switch between full tasks and lightweight reminders inside ClickUp.
Filter and sort reminders in ClickUp
As your list of reminders grows, filters and sorting options help you focus on what matters most right now.
Filter ClickUp reminders by date and status
Use filters to narrow your view to specific reminders:
- By due date: Show only reminders that are due today, this week, or that are overdue so you can clear time-sensitive items first.
- By start date: Focus on reminders you planned to start during a certain time period.
- By List: Limit the view to reminders from a particular List when you are working on a single project or area.
- By other properties: Depending on your configuration, you may filter by additional fields, such as priority or assignee.
Combine filters to create a focused, temporary view, then clear them to return to the full list of reminders in ClickUp My Tasks.
Sort reminders to prioritize your work
Sorting lets you quickly reorder reminders without changing their underlying data.
Common ways to sort include:
- Sort by Due date to see what must be done soon, with the earliest deadlines at the top.
- Sort by Start date to align your work with your planned start times.
- Sort by Updated to surface reminders that have not been touched recently and may need attention.
- Sort by List when you want to handle reminders from the same project or area together.
These options help you manage your schedule without leaving ClickUp My Tasks.
