Will existing apps / lists such as Tasks and Issues Tracker also assume the new SharePoint Modern lists view? At the moment, they revert to the classic view.
I'm in the process of defining a "Risks Tracker" list across new Project-oriented team site templates, but I'm concerned as to whether or not they will assume the new modern list format (which is what I'd like). In fact, I wasn't sure whether I should use a custom list, tasks list, Issues tracking list or perhaps even take a completely different route and use Planner for such a purpose. Exciting (and confusing) times ahead. Thanks.

Oct 27, 2016Hi Frank Bastone, not at this time. Currently the modern view is limited only to custom lists and document libraries. We will be expanding the modern view to those in the new year. We need to add some modern controls to our arsenal to be able to properly support those.
If you are using an Office 365 Group, then Planner should be a good fit, but if you want to embed tasks into SharePoint going with a regular task list is the better tool at the moment. Agree that this part of the product is ripe for updates, hopefully we will have some goodness in 2017.
