2026.06 Update
Tables
You can now turn any node into a lightweight Table, giving you a more structured way to organize plans, trackers, comparisons, and small databases.
A Table is still a list underneath. A node’s children become rows, and each row’s children become cells. Workflowy also adds a header row with blank cells so you can name your columns and give your notes more structure. You can turn a Table back into a list at any time.
- You can drag and drop to reorganize rows and columns, move cells, or replace one cell with another. You can also sort, duplicate, and use different node types, such as To-dos, inside headers and cells, so your tables can become working plans, checklists, trackers, or drafts.
- You can paste content from Excel, Google Sheets, Markdown, or TSV (tab-separated values) into a Workflowy Table and when you want to share or work with other apps, export to HTML, Markdown, or TSV.
- To try it, choose “Table” from the “Turn into” option in the node menu, or type
/table.

2025.21 Update
Numbered List
Long requested by the very organised Workflowy user, you can now easily turn any item into a Numbered list! Great for er, putting things in order.
Find it in the Item menu, Slash Command (/number), or by pressing Ctrl + Alt + 0 on PC (Cmd + Opt + 0 on Mac).
Themes
We've added two new themes to bring some seasonal warmth; Matcha and Chocolate.
Available to all Workflowy users in the Settings > Theme dropdown.
Calendar
- We've polished the Calendar again to smooth off some rough little edges:
- The Calendar Picker now clearly shows dates that contain nodes, making it easier to see which days are already busy.
- You can toggle Found Dates from being displayed in the Calendar.
- Toggling Friendly Date Names no longer triggers a full Calendar reorganisation.
- We'll now show a warning before updating your Calendar if you have changed Calendar Year, Month, or Week with a new name or note. This prevents you from accidentally wiping out your carefully crafted content.
- Fixed an issue that caused duplicate calendar dates when migrating a node with both a date and time tag.
Boards UI Improvements
We polished the look and feel of Boards. This includes fixing the sub-column padding issue that made the text inside cards look vertically off-center, making sure numbered lists display properly, and correcting arrow positioning on mobile.
API Support
External tools can now better integrate, as we've added support for parsing markdown dates and content formatting.
General Quality of Life

/Move to) now use natural dates again. - The "Home" bullet now appears in inline search results, making it faster to drop items back at the top.
