New Home: Bring back Recent Updates

Please add Recent Updates (currently the left column on the old My Work) to the new My Home page. I depend on this daily to make sure I didn't miss anything.

Same. Personally I'm not a fan of the new Home and this is one of the reasons. I feel like there's a lot of wasted screen real estate and recent updates could have been placed in the right side maybe. The previous suggest of a toggle is also a good one. We're not on cloud-based Office 365 so the calendar doesn't offer us any value functionally.

I love Workfront but honestly I didn't feel My Work was broken, while other areas are in dire need of updating.

Love Jenn's idea to have this as a toggle option on Home.

I've had requests from my users to have this functionality returned, even if it is on another page.

Here is a good tip that will hold us over until Recent Updates comes back.

This is a page usually reserved for Review license users, but it works great for Plan license users and has the recent updates. It's the myUpdates page:

https://xxx.my.workfront.com/myUpdates

I set this page up as an external link on a dashboard, and added it to my layout template.

I haven't been able to get it into the new Home area, unfortunately, but I was able to add it to a Dashboard as an "External Page" by just pasting in the URL to it there. If you have a Dashboard that you check frequently, it can be added to that.

Does anyone else see the new HOME area as a problem with these inconsistencies we are seeing? Love the new features but to take away these original features... is this a problem for anyone else?

If HOME is supposed to be a one-stop update epi-center, why TAKE AWAY the Updates????
