Short answer
Open the task and select Add a description under the title. Type what you need. On a task you already have, it saves as you type. When you add a new task, select Show the rest of the task to see the description.
Good to know
- Descriptions are plain text. Line breaks are kept.
- Search on the Tasks page looks in descriptions too.
- Only one person can edit a field at a time. Why.
