What is Trello?

Trello is a task managing software that uses kanbans, to-do lists, boards, and cards for teamwork. Users can develop plans, collaborate on projects and track progress in a visual and productive way. There is a Trello desktop app and a web version.

How to use Trello in Sidekick?

You don’t have to download Trello desktop app to use it in Sidekick. It’s easy as ABC: click Add Application, pick Trello, and log in with your current account.

Benefits of using Trello in Sidekick

We see the future of online work in using not desktop apps but their web versions and integrating them into a browser. This gives you better control of your virtual work environment, saves your time, and helps to retain your focus. There are numerous advantages in fusing Trello and Sidekick compared to Trello desktop app.

Save resources

  • Memory-wise, integration with Sidekick is a better choice if your desktop app size is more than 100MB.
  • Any document or tab launched in Chromium needs an isolated computing process to run. It leads to excessive memory consumption. Sidekick uses one framework to run similar processes. It significantly frees up computing power and takes multitasking to a new level.
  • Save even more memory with Sidekick’s AI-based tab-suspender that analyzes and offloads unused tabs.

Sidebar integration

  • You can access Trello directly from your Sidebar. It keeps Trello at your fingertips and your tab strip free of clutter while Trello desktop app consumes more resources.
  • You can also access it by using a keyboard shortcut Option-N, where N is the position of Trello in your Sidebar.

Support for multiple accounts

Right-click on Trello icon and add as many accounts as you wish. You can be logged into all of your accounts at the same time or you can easily switch between them.

Search

  • Right-click on Trello icon to search through recent documents or to open our Global Search feature (Option-F) to search through all Trello documents.
  • Type Trello in your search query to filter results. Open the file in a new tab or just copy a link, everything from one handy window.

Split view

Click Trello while holding Option key to open it in split view. Work with Trello and your other documents or apps side-by-side like never before.

Extensions

Sidekick is compatible with all Chrome plug-ins and extends its capabilities to other applications.

Sessions

Sessions is a great tool that helps you focus on a specific project, work-related or not. Now you can organize your documents and switch between different workspaces. Sessions eliminate tab-clutter and safeguard your attention.

Password sharing

Share your passwords securely with other users. Now you can give access to your Trello to colleagues and family without revealing your password. Now it works for registered Team members only but we are working to make it available to a wider audience.
