Hello, everyone!

Today, let’s tackle the question:

⭐HOW TO BUY PRO-PLAN USING TELEGRAM STARS?

According to Telegram’s policy, all digital goods and services within the Telegram's ecosystem are purchased exclusively with Telegram Stars.

Telegram Stars (Stars) are Telegram's internal currency.

Three ways to purchase Telegram Stars for your PRO-plan:

1⃣ Directly through the UTasks. Even if your Stars balance is zero, Stars will be purchased and applied to your subscription simultaneously. This process works just like a standard purchase from the Apple or Google store, charging the payment method linked to your Apple or Google account.

2⃣ Purchase Stars in advance through @PremiumBot.
Once purchased, you can use these Stars in the UTasks to pay for PRO-plan.

3⃣ Purchase Stars in advance on the Fragment auction platform. After purchasing on Fragment, use these Stars to pay for PRO in the UTasks bot.

This same process applies if you're buying PRO for a team.

Hello, friends!

Today in our #FAQ section, we’re tackling one of the most frequently asked questions:

DOES UTASKS WORK IN GROUPS WITH TOPICS?

The short answer: NO.

Here’s why:

❌ Lack of Topic Information: When added to a group, the bot doesn’t receive any data from Telegram’s API about existing topics within that group.

❌ Limitations on Workarounds: While the bot can receive information about newly created topics, even if users attempt to recreate or clear them, these events may not register due to occasional Telegram API glitches. This leaves users manually recreating topics, costing time and message history.

❌ Risk of Task Loss: In the worst-case scenario, the bot can lose its connection with topics, which may result in lost tasks. Fixing this manually isn’t practical, especially at scale.

To sum it up, we explored various workarounds, but every time we encountered the same issue:

⚠ GROUPS WITH TOPICS ARE UNDERDEVELOPED ON TELEGRAM’S API SIDE, LACKING THE STABILITY NEEDED FOR RELIABLE TASK MANAGEMENT.

This is one of the few cases where Telegram’s tools fall short for our needs. We’re hopeful that future API updates will allow us to deliver a reliable service for topic-enabled groups!

Hi Everyone!

Today’s #FAQ question:

WHAT ARE THE TYPES OF PROJECTS IN UTASKS?

UTasks supports 2 types of projects:

1️⃣ Personal Projects

Personal projects are tailored for managing your own tasks. Each user has a default personal project called Inbox. If you haven’t created a separate personal project, tasks will automatically be assigned to your Inbox by default.

Inline tasks are also saved to your Inbox! Inline tasks are quick tasks you can assign directly to any Telegram user without needing to create a shared group.

2️⃣ Group Projects

This is the standout feature of UTasks!

Group projects are based on a shared Telegram group.

Simply add @UTasksBot to any group, and you’ll unlock the ability to
collaborate seamlessly – you assign tasks to group members, and they can assign tasks to you!

Hello, Friends!

Let’s clarify a common question from the #FAQ:

WHERE ARE FILES ATTACHED TO TASKS STORED?

📄 For personal tasks, attached files are stored in your personal chat with the bot.

📄 For group project tasks, files are stored in the group chat.

⚠️Unlike many other task managers, we don’t store your files on our servers. Instead, we only save links to the files, ensuring maximum privacy and security for your data.

You can view and download attached files directly from the task history. Links in comments are easy to spot and clickable!

File attachment is available exclusively with the PRO-plan.

Hello everyone!

Today in our #FAQ section, we have the question:

How can I make the bot send all notifications to a specific topic in a group instead of the general chat?

🥸 Ah, we’re not the biggest fans of groups with topics due to their quirks and the resulting challenges when working with UTasks. We’ve explained these difficulties in detail in this post.

BUT here’s the answer:

To switch the bot to the desired topic, simply use the /start command in that topic.

After this, the bot will send all project notifications to the selected topic. If you ever want to change it again, just repeat the process in the new topic.

Hello everyone!

Today in the #FAQ section, we’re addressing a common question:

How can I obtain administrator rights in a group project?

➡️ The UTasks project is managed by the administrators of the Telegram group on which it is based.

📌 Administrators have the authority to create, edit, and delete tasks within the project, as well as modify any task fields.

📌 However, an administrator cannot mark a task as complete unless they are an active participant in it. To do so, they must first assign themselves as an Author or Assignee by updating the relevant fields.

All these modifications are logged in the task history for transparency.

Hey everyone!!!

Today in our #FAQ section, we’re tackling one of the most frequently asked questions:

How I can assignee tasks directly to any telegram user without creating a group?

🏹 Yes, yes, there are inline tasks in UTasks, assigned to any other user without creating a group project.

🔐 In this case, until the user accepts the task, the assignee remains unspecified.

🎫 A fitting analogy for this mechanism is a bearer check at a bank-anyone holding it can cash it.

To learn how to work with inline tasks, read the guide and/or watch the video.

LANGUAGE SETTINGS

Hey friends!

In today’s #FAQ, we’re diving into the details of language settings and answering a few of the most common questions we get in support.

✅ UTasks currently supports four languages: Russian, English, Spanish, and Farsi.

1⃣ First, you can choose the language of the app interface.
Love reading your task lists in Spanish? ¡No hay problema!

To set your app language, go to: Profile → Settings → Language

2⃣ Second, you can set a separate notification language for each group project.
This controls the language your bot uses when sending task updates and deadline reminders in the group chat connected to the project.

To set this up, go to:

Project → Gear icon → Settings → Notification Language

This is especially handy if you run your business in English but have a shared project importing pistachios with partners in Iran — who only know the word “deadline” in English. 😄

So in short... 💬 ¡Bienvenidos y que tengan un buen día! 💬

Hi everyone!

Today in our #FAQ section, we’re answering a common question:

How can you buy Telegram Stars without overpaying?

Short answer:

Buy stars through @PremiumBot.

@PremiumBot → Menu → /stars → Buy Stars

👍 This can save you around 1,100 RUB ⤵️

💫 Recently, the price difference for stars between iOS and Android has become quite significant. There was always a small gap (around 20–30%), but now it can exceed 1,000 RUB per 1,000 stars!

⭐ That’s why we recommend buying stars via @PremiumBot (the official Telegram bot) - it works on both Android and iOS. Some iOS users had issues with it in the past (it wouldn’t open or allow payment), but now everything runs smoothly.

Feel free to shower this post with stars - now that you know how to top up wisely! 😁

Hello everyone!

Today in our #FAQ section, we’re tackling an issue that some users encounter when creating a group project.

UTasks offers two ways to create a group project:

1⃣ FROM THE APP MENU. In some cases - for example, when using an outdated version of the client - this method can lead to errors.

2⃣ ADDING THE BOT TO A TELEGRAM GROUP. This method is more stable and consistently works without issues.

Our recommendation: If you run into errors when creating a project through the app menu, just use the second method - add the bot to your chat like a regular user.

Hey everyone!

Today in the #FAQ section - a quick tip:

If UTasks is lagging or just acting weird — check if your Telegram is up to date.

🤕 We’re handling your support tickets about “nothing works,” and 9 times out of 10, the real culprit is an outdated Telegram client. Seriously.

Telegram changes its behavior and interface from time to time. Since UTasks is built right into Telegram, using a version from the last century (or even last month) pretty much guarantees bugs. So, here's the deal ⤵

When in doubt — reset it out.
Even better? A fresh update.

Hey everyone!

Today's #FAQ spotlight is on the question:

HOW DO RECURRING TASKS WORK IN UTASKS?

➡We know the current logic behind recurring tasks isn’t always intuitive - it behaves more like calendar events than traditional tasks:

🟡 When the due date arrives, the task is automatically moved to the next scheduled date;
🟡 If you click "Complete", the task simply closes - no new copy is created.

This behavior can be confusing, especially if you're expecting the typical task flow. We get it - and we’re already working on a new, more familiar logic.

Thanks for your feedback! It’s what helps us keep improving.

Hi everyone!

🟣 Just a quick reminder - besides paying via bank transfer, you can purchase team licenses directly in the app using Telegram Stars.

Here’s how it works:

1⃣ Once your payment goes through, the bot will send you a private message with certificates — one for each annual license.

2⃣ Each certificate includes an activation link. The license will be automatically assigned to whoever clicks that link.

3⃣ Want to pass a license to a colleague? Simply forward them the message with the certificate.

Hi everyone!

Today in our #FAQ section, we're addressing the question:

WHY DO I SEE TASKS IN THE “ALL” TAB THAT I DID NOT CREATE OR ARE NOT ASSIGNED TO ME?

💡 The ALL tab displays not only your tasks, but also those of your colleagues. Such tasks are marked with a special chevron icon (see the comment for an example).

➕ Actions with such tasks are available only to participants in this task (the author, assignees), as well as administrators of this project, others can only view them.

⚙️ The administrators of the Telegram group on which the project is based are considered to be the project administrators. They can perform any actions with the task except for completing and deleting it. In order to complete or delete a task, they must first become participants in this task — put themselves in the place of the Executor or Author.

Thank you for your questions — they help us make UTasks clearer and more convenient

Hi everyone!

Today in our #FAQ series, we’re answering a common question:

CAN YOU TRY UTASKS FOR FREE? AND FOR HOW LONG?

Answer: YES, YOU CAN, and THERE'S NO TIME LIMIT.
➿➿➿➿➿➿➿➿➿➿➿➿
UTasks doesn’t have a classic “trial period”. You can use the FREE-plan for as long as you want, until you hit the plan limits.
➿➿➿➿➿➿➿➿➿➿➿➿

🟣Act as a Task Author in up to 2 group projects;
🟣Be an Assigne in an unlimited number of group projects;
🟣Create and manage up to 3 personal projects.
➿➿➿➿➿➿➿➿➿➿➿➿
FREE is a great way to get started. But if you want to fully test UTasks in real work scenarios, we recommend activating a monthly PRO-plan.
➿➿➿➿➿➿➿➿➿➿➿➿
The PRO-plan costs less than a cup of coffee, but removes all limits:
⭐Enjoy the freedom to create tasks as an Author in an unlimited number of group projects;
⭐Assign tasks to multiple Assignes with ease;
⭐Create unlimited personal projects;
⭐Take full control with the ‘Date Due’ feature;
⭐Attach files to tasks for streamlined collaboration;
⭐Use short commands to create tasks;
⭐Set task priorities and change task statuses;
⭐Organize your projects into Areas for better management.

Hi there, friends!

Support keeps getting the same question over and over: what makes PRO different from FREE, and is paying really necessary. Here is the answer and a rule that settles it in ten seconds.

➡️ You complete tasks - FREE is all you need.
➡️ You assign tasks - sooner or later you will need PRO.

🔹If you complete tasks
You can do that in an unlimited number of group projects, no cap at all. You get added to ten work chats, people assign you tasks, you close them, you get notifications. There is nothing to pay for, and we are not going to nudge you into it. Plus 3 personal projects for your own to-dos and 2 group projects where you can assign tasks yourself.

🔹If you assign tasks
This is where the maths kicks in. A limit of 2 group projects looks generous right up to the moment a third chat appears. And it does appear: another client, another team, another project with a contractor. It is a question of when, not if.

The main PRO benefits are on the image above.

💰 What it costs
A month is 150⭐ or 249 ₽. Paid yearly it works out at 83⭐ or 183 ₽ a month: cheaper than a single cup of coffee, and rather more useful, we hope. Options for 3 and 6 months are on the subscription page.

For legal entities, payment by bank transfer, discounts from 2 licenses: @UTasks_Support

By the way, the same lens works nicely on your own team: who assigns tasks and who completes them. Assignees do not need PRO, licenses are only for the people assigning. Count them and you get exactly the number worth paying for across the company. #FAQ
