⭐ How to use Favorites

The favorites feature in smenso allows you to quickly and easily access important views and projects. Favorites are located in the sidebar of the software and are always set up personally for you, making navigation in the software faster and more efficient.

Adding Favorites

You can add projects, tasks, project views, and any global views such as portfolio, workload, or time tracking views to your favorites in the sidebar. To add a view or any other element to your favorites, follow these steps:

1. Open the project, task, or view you want to favorite.
2. Click on the ⭐ star icon that you will find either next to the name of the view (in the three-dot menu), next to the project title, or in a task.
3. Done – the favorited item will be added to the sidebar.

2. Removing Favorites: Simply remove favorites by clicking on the x icon of a specific view, or open the three-dot menu of a project and select Remove from favorites.
