## **New Features & Enhancements 🚀**

**✅** Added improvements for Chats.

- Chat UI/UX improved.

- Real-time chat updates supported.

- The unread messages will be highlighted.

**✅** The List and Board views are now in different tabs, making it easier to switch between them.

**✅** Added performance enhancements for the dashboard.

✅ Tasks in the list view now display tags. You can also control whether task numbers (e.g., #123) are shown in the list and board views from the project settings.

✅ Made two key changes to how emails are sent: Editing a comment no longer sends a new email notification. Instead of sending an individual email for every reaction, all reactions are now combined and sent in a single email every 12 hours.

✅ The chat functionality code refactored for smoother performance and made some minor improvements.

✅ The activities tab now clearly shows when activities are transferred between projects. An activity is now also created when a task moves to a new section or project.

✅ The checklist item creation UX has been redesigned to make adding items faster.

✅ Added taxonomy for Tasks.
