Blocking tasks / next task

Perhaps there could be a way to tie tasks to each other when one task needs to wait for another to be done. Similarly there could be a way to denote when a task needs someone else to do something.
If the task that is waiting for another task didn't show up in the inbox until the other task was done, it would be really useful.
ClickUp has a similar feature, but it isn't very satisfying.

    Would love that. Sometimes I jot down all the tasks, but seeing them, when they are "blocked" before other things are done is unnecessarily complicating thing. Trying to snooze them to "when the other thing will probably be done", is just trying to work around this missing feature. Would love it! I'd maybe just have all blocked stuff visible in the same bucket where the "snoozed" are hidden, when you for example select a project. When they wouldn't be blocked anymore, they'd get unsnoozed -> be inboxed.

    This is exactly the last feature I need to completely move all my tasks to Akiflow!

      Daniel Same! I could move my whole team off of Asana if we could assign each other tasks and create dependencies. Game changer!
