We’re excited to introduce searchable dropdown for single- and multi-select form fields, making it faster and easier for users to find and select the right options.
What’s new?
- Single-select fields now include a search-enabled dropdown so users can quickly find the option they need.

Please Note: The searchable dropdown feature is currently available on desktop only and is not yet supported in the mobile app or in mobile browsers.
- Mobile App Updates (iOS & Android): Filter Presets and More📱
Happy to share a couple of helpful updates to the Wrike Mobile App. Here’s what’s new:
- The Wrike Mobile App now supports applying Filter Presets saved on desktop to Smart Folders (My To-Do and Created by Me sections), saving time with one-tap filter application.
- We’ve improved the typing experience on iOS by fixing situations where letters weren’t auto-capitalizing after a full stop.
