More levels of grouping and sorting

It would be useful if we could set two or more levels of grouping and sorting.

For example, in “Today”, group by Life Area and then by Goal.

Right now, if you group by Life Area, all your Tasks are then lumped in one list. But what if I want to see items grouped under their Life Area and then their Goal? I can’t.

Or what if I want to group things by Goal and then Priority? I can’t.

Being able to have 2 x levels of grouping means things can be much clearer and cleaner.

It would be good to then be able to sort each level of grouping individually. So group 1 can have a different sort type to group 2.

EDIT: Actually, come to think of it, we could do with more than 2 levels. 3 even would be good.

Group by:

Life Area

—Goal

——Task vs Habit.

That way we could see everything under Life Area first, then Goal, then see our tasks vs habits.

This is impossible right now, as everything is just one long list.

The last one might also be Priority, for example, or Date. Lots of different useful setups users could make.

    To add to this, there is a situation that would benefit from being able to do the reverse - only see ONE level of grouping.

    If you are on a Life Area homepage, and you group Tasks by Goal/Project, you can end up with multiple lists, which is not the easiest to digest and look at. The items group first under the parent Goal, then the Sub-Goal or Sub-Project. This can look like way too much.

    I would love to be able to view Tasks just under the Parent Goal, but not under any Sub-Project or Sub-goal. I.e., all Sub-Project and Sub-Goal items just show under the Parent, but with the name of the Sub-Project or Sub-Goal they belong to shown as a property next to time & date, etc.

    This would be possible if we could choose multiple levels of grouping, as we could actually delete the second level in this instance, and just show by Parent Goal.

    So ideally we could choose all levels of grouping as we please.

    On that note, could you allow us to Group on Upcoming? - https://griply.featurebase.app/p/allow-grouping-on-upcoming
