# Tasks

*Updated 2026-10-20*

## Where tasks come from

Every action item in a meeting's notes becomes a task. meaty fills in:

| Field | How it's set |
|---|---|
| **Owner** | Matched to a person when the name was said clearly. |
| **Due date** | Only when a date was actually said in the meeting. |
| **Priority** | High or medium when the meeting said so; otherwise low. |
| **Status** | Open, done or dismissed. |

Tasks can't be created by hand or reworded — they always reflect what the
meeting said.

## On a computer: the Tasks page

**Tasks** in the web and desktop app lists every task from every meeting.

- **Group** by status, priority, owner or meeting.
- **Sort** by created, due date or priority.
- Tick a task done, dismiss it, change its owner, priority or due date.

## On the phone and in the extension: Follow-ups

The **Follow-ups** tab in your library lists open tasks. Tick them off or
change the owner there. A meeting's **Actions** tab is read-only on these
surfaces.

## Your changes stick

A task you've ticked stays ticked, and an owner you've chosen stays chosen,
even when the meeting's notes are regenerated.
