Check-in & Task Management
This is the primary way to communicate your daily tasks to your team using Syncteams.

Your check-in is visible to the team. A few ways teams adopt the check-in feature are to:

- Running stand-ups on slack.
Teams struggling with multiple time zones use syncteams to complement their daily stand-up meetings or replace check-in with standups to save time.
