An Asana client, not another to-do app

Drag a task up the list. Asana moves the deadline.

My Next Task reads every open Asana task you have a due date on and stacks them in one column, soonest first. Reorder the column and the dates rewrite themselves. Prioritizing and rescheduling stop being two jobs.

Free. Bring an Asana personal access token, be looking at your list in about thirty seconds.

The mechanic

Move it, and the date follows

Grab a task by the handle and drop it where it belongs. It inherits the due date of whatever now sits beneath it, and that change lands in Asana immediately.

Your teammates see the new date in the project they already use. Nothing to sync, nothing to copy across.

Inline actions

Four things you can do to any row

Clear a task without leaving the page. Every one of these writes back to Asana. This is a real client, not a read-only dashboard.

Complete it

One click, it is done in Asana and gone from the list.

Snooze it

Push the due date one, two, three or seven days out.

Drop the deadline

Clears the due date so the task stops chasing you without being marked done.

Open the notes

A task's description opens in a side panel with a full editor, formatting intact.

Task titles link straight through to the task in Asana. This replaces the daily triage pass, not Asana itself.

Scope

Your whole workspace, or one project

Point the list at everything you have open, or narrow it to a single team or a single project. Turn on Show past due only and the list becomes exactly the pile you are behind on. Subtasks come along with their parents, and anything whose parent is already finished stays out of your way.

  • Workspace, team or a single project
  • Show past due only

The first switch is live. It filters the list up in the hero.

Sharing

Send a client the link, not a screenshot

Every project gets a shareable page that groups tasks under the same headings you use in Asana, with finished work struck through so progress is obvious at a glance. Anyone holding the link can add an item to any section, and it appears in Asana as a normal task. No login, no invitation, no license.

For a client

Wants to see where things stand, without a status email.

For a colleague

Needs to hand you work without being onboarded onto your board.

The object

Legible from across the room

Type is set large on purpose, so the list still reads from the other side of a desk. Light and dark themes, tag colors carried through from Asana, and an optional stripped-back view with the header and counters hidden. Install it from the browser and it opens in its own window like any other app, and it tells you plainly when you are offline.

Setup

Connected in about thirty seconds

Three steps, no OAuth screen. Nothing to install. Nothing for your Asana admin to approve.

1

Paste an Asana token.

Create a personal access token in Asana under My Apps and drop it in. No approval flow, no admin sign-off.

2

Pick yourself and a workspace.

We read the accounts your token can see, and you choose which one is you.

3

Set a password.

That is the account. Your list is waiting on the next screen.

Get started

Connect a token, or sign back in

New here

Paste an Asana personal access token and we will show you the accounts it can see.

Only you can create this, and you can revoke it in Asana at any time.

How do I get a token?
  1. Go to app.asana.com/0/my-apps and sign in to Asana.
  2. Click Create new token under Personal access tokens.
  3. Give it a name such as My Next Task, agree to Asana's API terms and click Create token.
  4. Copy the token Asana shows you. It is displayed once, so copy it before you close the dialog.
  5. Paste it into the box above and click Continue.

Already have an account

Sign in with the email and password you set when you connected your token.

Lost your password? Connect your Asana token again with the same account and set a new one.

FAQ

Questions the page should answer

Does this change anything in Asana?
Yes, and that is the point. Completing, snoozing, reordering and editing notes all write back to Asana straight away. Your team sees the same task list they always did.
What is a personal access token?
A key you generate yourself inside Asana, under My Apps. It works like a password for the API, and you can revoke it at any time, which instantly cuts this app off.
Do my teammates need accounts?
Only if they want a list of their own. A shared project page is readable, and addable to, by anyone with the link.
What shows up in the list?
Every incomplete task with a due date, in the scope you picked, soonest first. Tasks with no due date stay out until you give them one.
Does it work with Trello, Jira or Todoist?
No. Asana only.
What does it cost?
Nothing.

One list. Sorted by when it is due.

Paste a token and see your real tasks in half a minute. If it is not the view you wanted, revoke the token in Asana and nothing follows you.
