Action Items

Divide and conquer — assign tasks so nothing falls through the cracks.

Adding a task

  1. 1Open the trip idea → Action items.
  2. 2Type the task and pick an assignee (or leave unassigned).
  3. 3Optionally set a due date and priority.
  4. 4Hit +.

Suggest with AI (Pro)

Click Suggest with AI at the top of the Action Items card. BucketBuddy reads the trip's destination, dates, planned activities, insights and existing tasks and drafts a tailored list — things like "Book airport transfer", "Check visa requirements" or "Confirm dietary preferences with the crew".

  • Tasks come pre-grouped by category (Booking, Documents, Logistics, Money, Research…).
  • Each task has a suggested priority (high / normal / low) and a one-line reason.
  • Untick anything you don't want, hit Add selected, then assign owners.
  • Anything already on your list is skipped automatically.

Available on the Pro plan — the person clicking pays, the whole group benefits.

Filters

Tasks default to Mine so the list stays focused. Use the chip row to switch:

  • All — every task on this trip.
  • Mine — assigned to you.
  • Unassigned — pick up something ownerless.
  • [Member name] — see what someone else is on.

Each chip shows a live count of open tasks in that filter.

Priority, due dates & comments

  • Each row has a coloured dot (red = high, amber = normal, grey = low) — change it inline from the flag dropdown.
  • Set or update a due date directly on the row. Overdue tasks turn red; due-in-48h go amber.
  • Click Comment to open an inline thread with the rest of the crew.

Hide / show completed

Completed tasks are hidden by default. Toggle Show completed at the top-right to see history. Only the person who created a task can delete it.

This feature is powered by AI and is included with BucketBuddy Pro. Only the person clicking the AI button needs Pro — everyone in the crew sees the result.
