Organizing with Icons

Icons become even more powerful when combined with Priority Matrix’s sorting features. You can organize your entire project view based on icons:

  1. Click the Filters button in your project view
  2. Look for “Sort Items…” in the side panel
  3. Select “by Icon” from the sorting options

This sorting feature is particularly useful when you:

  • Need to group similar types of tasks together
  • Want to review all items of a certain category
