Less Clutter, More Focus: We Redesigned How You Add Tasks

We stripped the task bar down to what matters — a text field and a button. Plus four bug fixes that make the whole app feel smoother.

The Old Task Bar Was Too Busy

When you wanted to add a task, you were greeted by a row of four buttons squeezed next to a tiny text field. Voice input, AI mode, rapid-add mode, and the submit button — all fighting for space at the bottom of your screen.

Most people just want to type a task and press Enter. That's it. All those extra buttons made the most basic action feel complicated.

So we cleaned it up. The task bar is now just a text field and a submit button. Full width for typing. No distractions. The AI-enhance feature moved to the toolbar that appears when you tap into the field — right where you'd expect advanced options to live.

Four Bugs You Probably Noticed (Now Fixed)

Two tabs active at the same time — If you tapped "Today" in the bottom bar, both the "Tasks" and "Today" tabs would light up as if they were both selected. Confusing, right? This happened because both tabs share the same base URL. We now make sure only one tab is highlighted at a time.

Company colors stuck everywhere — When you visited a company page, Nyura would pick up the company's brand color and apply it across the app. Nice touch — except when you left the company page, the color stayed. Your whole app could turn red, green, or whatever the company's logo color was. Now the color properly resets when you navigate away.

"Update Available" when tapping a travel card — Instead of opening your trip details, you'd sometimes see a page that said "Update Available." This wasn't actually an update — it was a loading error disguised as one. We made the error message clearer and the auto-recovery much more reliable.

Priority button showing "Urgent" when it shouldn't — The priority toggle showed "Urgent" even when your task was set to normal priority. A small text bug, but the kind of thing that makes you second-guess what you're looking at. Fixed.

Small Details, Big Difference

None of these changes are flashy new features. There are no new screens, no new buttons, no new modules. But that's exactly the point.

A productivity app that gets in your way is worse than no app at all. Every time a button confuses you, every time the wrong tab lights up, every time an error message makes no sense — that's friction that shouldn't exist.

This update is about removing friction. Type your task. Hit Enter. Move on with your day.

That's what Nyura is here for.
