Share files to ClickUp on iOS

Quickly upload files from anywhere on your iOS device into ClickUp without opening the app!

We are aware of an issue with Apple devices using iOS 14 where various apps are not shown as an option for sharing. This is not unique to our ClickUp mobile app, and may be fixed by Apple in a future update. Until then, you may need to restart your device to display all apps that have sharing activities enabled.
