Description Alexander Potashev 2025-05-04 17:50:11 UTC 
SUMMARY
Cannot create activity.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Press Meta+Q to open activity switcher.
2. In the activity switcher, click "Create activity..."
3. Try to click Save (in the top-right corner) in an attempt to create an activity.

OBSERVED RESULT
The Save button is greyed out, cannot click it. There's no tooltip explaining why I cannot save.

EXPECTED RESULT
An ability to always immediately create an activity, and/or an explaination why I cannot save activity.

Comment 4 Alexander Potashev 2025-08-31 12:11:34 UTC 
Still reproducible. I guess an activity requires a name, however it's not clear from the UI.

Thanks for the update. It looks like the actionable thing for us is to provide UI feedback about the required fields needing to be filled
