# Announce Room (#announce)
The #announce room is a chat space available to all workspace members. It's perfect for sharing company-wide updates, policy changes, or event reminders. The #announce room is accessible from your **Inbox** in the left-hand menu.
- **Post company-wide announcements:** All members can post in #announce by default, making it easy to communicate across the workspace.
- **Restrict posting to admins:** Workspace admins can limit posting to admins only. Open the #announce room, click the room header, select Settings, and change Who can post to Admins only.
- **Everyone can read messages:** Even if posting is limited to admins, all workspace members can still view messages in the #announce room.

# Tasks
Keep conversations organized by letting you create actionable to-dos directly within a chat. You can assign them to yourself or others in both 1:1 and group chats.
- **Create a task:** In any chat, click the + button next to the message field and select Assign a task. Add a title (required) and an optional description, and choose an assignee from chat participants. You can also leave it unassigned to track it yourself.
- **Use tasks to stay on top of action items:** Tasks are great for follow-ups like “Submit expense report,” “Share slide deck,” or “Update mileage rate.” They're perfect for 1:1 check-ins, project updates, or organizing next steps after a team discussion.
- **Edit and manage tasks:** Task creators and assignees can comment, edit the title or description, reassign the task, or mark it as complete. Just click the task to update any details.
- **Tasks stay visible:** Each task is shared in the chat where it's created. When completed, it will be clearly marked in the chat and can be reopened if needed.
