Support multi-user pointers during SyncUp screen shares
When a user shares their screen in ClickUp, viewers currently cannot place a visible pointer or remote cursor on the presenter’s screen. Add a feature that allows viewers to enable a temporary remote pointer/cursor (or laser pointer) during screen sharing sessions, similar to how Slack enables participants to point and draw attention. The pointer should be visible to all participants and should optionally include a label with the viewer's name or avatar. Problem / Pain Points * Presenters need to verbally direct attention to UI elements during demos or reviews, which is less efficient and can lead to miscommunication. * Viewers cannot quickly indicate specific items on the screen, causing presenters to lose their place or misunderstand feedback. * Collaboration during live reviews, pair programming, or design critiques is slower and more error-prone without a shared pointing tool. Proposed Solution * Add a remote pointer/laser pointer feature for viewers during screen sharing. * Viewer can toggle their pointer on/off; when on, a colored cursor or laser dot appears on the presenter’s screen for all participants. * Each viewer’s pointer should use a distinct color and show the viewer’s name or avatar beside the pointer. * Pointer can be moved with the viewer’s mouse; short animated trail or pulse can improve visibility. * Presenter can control permissions: allow all viewers, allow specific viewers, or disable remote pointers entirely. * Include a simple UI control in the screen sharing toolbar to enable/disable the pointer and to request pointer control if needed. * Allow viewer annotation (temporary drawing or highlighting) with undo and auto-expiration.

Display User Status Indicators in Chat (In Meeting, Focus Time, OOO, Available, etc.)
It would be extremely valuable for ClickUp Chat to display real-time status indicators next to users' names, similar to Slack. Today, users often have no visibility into whether a teammate is currently in a meeting, participating in a SyncUp, focused on deep work, out of office, or otherwise unavailable. This can lead to unnecessary interruptions, delayed responses, duplicate follow-ups, and reduced collaboration efficiency. Adding presence and status indicators directly within Chat would provide immediate context about a teammate's availability and help teams communicate more effectively. Examples of Status Indicators:** * In Meeting * In SyncUp * Focus Time / Do Not Disturb * At Lunch * Out of Office * Away * Available * Offline Benefits: * Reduces interruptions during meetings and focused work * Helps set expectations for response times * Improves collaboration across distributed and remote teams * Increases visibility into team availability without requiring additional messages * Reduces the need to switch between ClickUp and external communication tools * Supports ClickUp's vision as a centralized work and communication platform Ideally, status indicators could be updated automatically based on ClickUp Calendar events, SyncUps, scheduled focus time, or manually by users when desired. The more context users have about team availability directly within Chat, the more efficient and effective communication becomes.
