Click three dots in the right upper corner of the board to open the action menu with the following options:

This mode is more suitable for smaller screens or when there are many columns on the board. The card width is decreased in the compact view, the list of subtasks cannot be unfolded and the initials of the responsible employee are displayed instead of their full name.
- Copy board link – click to copy the link to the board.
- Sprint planning – the option is only displayed if there is an active sprint. Click to open the Sprint planning widget where you can manage the sprint tasks.

The board interface is slightly different from the desktop version when it is opened from a mobile device:
- The board UI actions are located in the action menu.
- Only one column is displayed on the screen at a time; you can switch between the columns.
- You cannot drag the cards between the columns.
- Compact view option is not available.
