Welcome to the October edition of What’s New in Asana!

First, the new Desktop App icon lets you focus on your most important work. Click on the icon to see your priority tasks by due date or set a timer for protected blocks of do not disturb time.

Next, report on how long it takes for tasks to move through stages of work. In Reporting, or from your project Dashboard, you can see how much time tasks have spent in each section of a project or how long they’ve been assigned a custom field value.

Finally, using Asana Forms to standardize your intake process? Set up a Rule to automatically move a form submission to a section or project so you don’t have to triage them manually.
