Trawpie on an iPad or tablet

On a tablet the menu moves to a sidebar and cards are compact (title, deadline and sub-tasks), so three weeks fit and the board mostly scrolls sideways.

A tablet has room for the real board. Trawpie puts the menu in a sidebar (as icons when the screen is narrow) and makes cards compact, so three weeks fit and you mostly scroll sideways through the weeks.

A tablet: the menu on the side, three weeks on screen.

Compact cards

Each card shows its title, deadline and a sub-task count like ☑ 2/4. Tap a card and everything else (sub-tasks, stage, files, comments) slides in from the side; the board stays where it was.

Prefer the full cards? Search for Full cards on the board with Ctrl + K (or the 🔍 button). It’s remembered on that tablet.

Tips

  • Press and hold a card for its menu, or attach a keyboard and use the right-click menu with a trackpad.
  • Drag cards with a finger or a pencil. Hold a moment before you drag, so the board doesn’t scroll instead.
  • The sidebar can be the top bar instead: Your account ▸ Appearance ▸ Navigation.
  • Split View works: Trawpie on one side and your notes or chat on the other.
Everything you do on a tablet saves straight away and appears on everyone’s board, exactly as on a laptop.
