New Feature: Conversations

By Katie

Updated: September 23rd, 2021

New-look commenting helps you keep track.

Task commenting on Airtasker has been re-vamped. Instead of sifting through every question and reply on a task, you can now simply reply to a specific question and keep track of any replies in that one spot.

How does this help you?

For Job Posters this means answering questions quicker and following the conversation easier.

Taskers will be able to easily see responses to their questions from the Job Poster. And if there’s more to be discussed, just reply again to their last comment.

You also won’t be notified of every comment anymore, just when someone replies to your comment.

How to reply to comments:

ABOUT THE AUTHOR

Katie

I've loved interior design for as long as I can remember and I'm currently about to renovate my first home. So as well as being the Content Lead at Airtasker, I'm also on the lookout for the latest design trends, backyard ideas and anything to do around the home. I'm also trying to use low-tox cleaning methods and work towards being more plastic-free!

    except that the reply option isn’t showing to respond to the job poster when they’ve specifically asked me a question. Step 2 is missing. so then my answer goes in as a new comment.
