Install Microsoft To-Do without accessing the Windows Store
Can I install Microsoft To-DO without accessing the Windows Store? Currently the Windows Store is banned in my work laptop due to cooperate security policy. I had to end up using the web version, which is pretty bad at notifying. I was just wondering if I could install the windows native version without accessing the Store.Microsoft To Do Tasks Disappeared
Hello, I used to have ~100 tasks in my To-Do application these days. As of yesterday, they have been reduced to ~50. Multiple tasks disappeared from various lists (the lists are all intact). I rely on To-Do a lot and that's why I have it on 2 Windows PCs, 3 iOS devices and 1 Android. All are synced to the ~50 baseline, which as of yesterday, since to be my as-is in Microsoft's servers. All 6 applications (in all 3 different platforms), are on To-Do version 2.55 (latest one as we speak today). Of course I have uninstalled/re-installed, log-out/in, and changed passwords to my Office 365 account several times, with no effect. When I visited the web app, to check the situation, my tasks were not deleted (i.e. reduced from ~100 to ~50), but I noticed, that these ~100 tasks, were not exactly my latest update (i.e. I have seen tasks here and there that I have recently closed, or changed that were not reflected in the web app). But at least the heavy reduction from ~100 to ~50 was not done (some hope there). But when I signed out and signed it again (always in the web app), then I saw all these tasks disappearing from here as well. So now, all 6 apps (Windows, iOS and Android), plus the web app, are ALL SYNCHORNIZED to this ~50 tasks baseline, which as of yesterday, seems to be my new as-is in Microsoft's servers. The disappeared messages are not in deleted tasks folder of Office365/Outlook, etc. They are totally gone. Can anyone support me, or suggest something to me ? Thank you!
To-Do not syncing with Outlook
Hi, I'm a bit simple when it comes to tech, but whilst To-Do syncs with the Outlook Web App, it doesn't sync with normal Outlook Tasks on my laptop. To-Do syncs fine between my laptop and my phone, but obviously doesn't have any of the Outlook Tasks in there as they aren't syncing with To-Do. Same sign in (Office 365) on all. Is it something I'm not doing (as I said, I'm a bit simple) or can it not sync? Thanks to anyone who can advise.Sharing lists with others outside your organization
I recently decided to finally move from Wunder to To-do . It is a work account but I also have some personal lists to share with my wife (Ie.g. groceries). How do I share lists with her? if I invite her she gets an error as she is not part of my work organization /group. Do I need two separate accounts or something (ugh) - how would that work in the app?Meet the new Microsoft Planner: Manage all your tasks and plans in one simple, familiar experience

Manually sorting To-Do tasks and turning off sort order
Help - this is driving me crazy.... I want to be able to sort my tasks manually (ie, not in one of the order options - alphabetically, creation date, etc) I am able to drag and drop tasks into any order on SOME lists - ones which don't have a 'sorted by' option already selected and showing just under the list title. (there is one exception to this: Important list. Can't manually sort even thoiugh there is no sort order selected). SO: how do I turn off an automatic sort order once it has been selected???? I've tried everything and looked everywhere - baffled! don
To-do Task Reminders Not Always Working
I love using Microsoft To-Do to set up tasks and routines, but often the reminders do not always work. Example: I have a routine set to remind me to give my puppies their morning snack everyday at 6:45. Some mornings, I get the reminder right on time, some mornings I get the reminder 5 or 10 minutes late, and other mornings I do not get a reminder at all, even though I can look at the task set up in To-Do and clearly see the reminder turned on. This happens with other tasks as well. Is there some way to correct this so that I get my reminders when I am supposed to?
Current Microsoft To Do integration with Google Assistant
Hello folks, I've been trying to research on the net how to integrate Microsoft Todo with the voice activation component of Google assistant. There is a article called "Using Ok Google with Microsoft To Do" https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/office/using-ok-google-with-microsoft-to-do-94d3c3f0-9f4c-4e8d-a57d-439cd69e1f61 But it would seem that in more recent times that this is no longer the case based on other feedback on the net. If this is still the case is there a better explanation as pawing at the phone screen does not suggest there are any options to change this with. Kind Regards
ToDo tasks disappeared
Hi, As of this morning, it appears there was an update to To Do (I assume, based on the fact that there was a "What's New notification). I can only assume the update is what caused this but all my tasks have disappeared. The list names still appear on the right but when I click them or the Tasks menu item, no tasks appear on the right. As this is my work task list, it is a rather large problem for me. Is there a way to roll back or retrieve the lost data? Kind regards, BashierahIntroducing Steps in Microsoft To-Do
With Microsoft To-Do we wanted a fresh start to explore the positives of productivity. We were especially inspired by the sense of accomplishment that comes from completing your most important to-dos every day. Microsoft To-Do’s My Day frees you from the anxiety that accompanies an ever-growing to-do lists by resetting each morning so that you can prioritize your to-dos each day. We love hearing how our customers use My Day to complete more of their to-dos each day. We’ve also heard your requests. Thanks to your feedback, we know that productivity doesn’t rest solely on a morning ritual of planning your day or end once you’ve completed your regular daily to-dos. Accomplishing larger goals requires effective tools to break those giant tasks down into more manageable bite-sized chunks. With that in mind, we’re very happy to introduce you to Steps. Steps allows you to break any to-do down in to smaller pieces. No matter how monumental your to-do may be, you can tackle it easily, step by step. We’ve found that the best strategy to accomplish larger goals is to create simple, specific and actionable steps. If you’re working through your list and come to a to-do that you simply can’t complete immediately, it’s the perfect opportunity to pause and evaluate your next steps. Thanks to this moment of reflection, prep for presentation becomes update PowerPoint with slides from analytics, review last month's meeting notes and share outline & agenda, all of which are clearly defined and achievable. As you complete each Step of your goal, we’ll help keep track of your progress. Beneath your to-do’s name we’ll show you just how many Steps it contains and how many you’ve completed so far. You’ll always be able to see exactly how far you’ve come directly from your list. The number of Steps left to reach your goal is always visible, helping keep you on track, accountable and in control. Get Microsoft To-Do Preview for iPhone, Android, Windows and the web today. We would love to hear your thoughts and ideas on what you think would make Microsoft To-Do even better. You can talk to us via our in-app contact form, on UserVoice, Twitter or on Facebook.How to see completed tasks
"New Outlook April/May 2023" - I accidentally clicked on one of many ToDos in my list just now, but not sure what it was. I have searched the "app" and online, but cannot find a way to see my completed todos? Is this possible in this version. It would be a significant oversight if it's not available.
