Moving the bottom navigation bar

[J_ Gary Myers]

Hi Trello Community,

I’ve really appreciated Trello’s evolving interface, but I wanted to share a bit of feedback about the bottom navigation bar (“Inbox,” “Planner,” “Board,” “Switch boards”). While I understand its purpose, it currently overlaps with the scrollbar and can interfere with card management—especially on boards with lots of content.

Does anyone know if they are considering making this bar movable, collapsible, or dockable to another part of the screen? Even just an option to hide it would go a long way in improving usability.

Hey @J_ Gary Myers,

I would also recommend you visit that suggestion, log in with your Atlassian account, and click Start watching this issue on the right panel. When the ticket is updated by our product team, you'll be notified via email.

I encourage you to also vote and comment in the feature request about why this feature is important to you.

Trust me, it makes all the difference when they assess implementing the features! Customer sentiment is the driver most of the time.

Thanks & regards,
