## What is this?

A long list is its own distraction.

Filter & Sort trims your list down to what actually needs your
attention: the urgent stuff first, everything else out of sight.

## How does it work?

Click the funnel button above the task list to open the panel. A small
badge on the funnel shows how many filters are active.

From the panel you can:

* **Priority Sort**: keep your Manual Order, or sort Most Urgent
  First / Least Urgent First
* **Filter by Priority**: show only the
  [priorities](/guides/priority) you check, including "No Priority"
* **Filter Subtasks**: apply your filters to
  [subtasks](/guides/subtasks) too
* **Clear Filters and Sort**: back to your full list in one click

Your choices are remembered on this browser, so your view stays put.

<Info>
  While a sort or filter is active, drag-and-drop reordering is paused.
  [Focus mode](/guides/focus-time) only walks through visible tasks.
  If you finish them all, it will remind you to clear your filters to
  see the rest.
