To Do App Alternative that works directly with your M365 Account, for Classic Outlook Fans!
Hi Everyone I have built an app for you Classic Outlook task fans. My old favourite task app isn't being supported any more, so as a 20+ year Outlook and GTD veteran I decided to have a go myself and build something! Does your Todo crash because of too many completed tasks. Do you wish you could create views of your tasks including groups by category, priority, and filter by completed, due today, not dated Ability to use Classic Outlook "quick steps" style actions to tidy up your inbox Be able to print tasks in a lovely big old Outlook 97 style grid, direct from your phone Create tasks from emails, events from emails Keep your Outlook tasks perfectly intact and get going just by logging in to your M365 account?

Hi All, I have a question related to notifications of Outlook and To-Do when running on Windows 10 PC. As Outlook and To-Do are integrated on a M365 platform, To-dos appears as tasks in Outlook. When a reminder is triggered in MS To-Do I get a windows notification, which is what I expect, but I also get a Outlook notification for the same to-do but via Outlook tasks. Does anyone know a way around this duplicate alert that does not involve disabling Outlook notifications as a whole?Joe_BlogsJul 22, 2026Copper Contributor2.3KViews4likes4CommentsFeature parity between Web and Desktop/Mobile TODO (Categories)
It looks like there isn't feature parity between the Web version of To Do and the Desktop/Mobile apps. Specifically, the web version has access to and displays UI components that allow us to select Categories to assign to our To Do items, yet this ability does not exist on the Desktop/Mobile Apps. Furthermore the display of assigned categories to Items created on the Web interface is not consistent on the Desktop/Mobile apps. The Desktop will show the category assigned to the item (but does not allow modification), however the Mobile App does not indicate any category assignment at all. Can we please get a feature parity w.r.t Categories between the Web, Mobile, and Desktop app of To Do ? Thank you.xnupiJul 18, 2026Tin Contributor425Views9likes3CommentsTasks show up twice in To Do module in Outlook On Desktop
I have a strange problem with my tasks in the To Do module when it is used inside the Outlook app installed on my Windows PC. Some tasks show up twice there. When I check other places the task is listed only once there: On the To Do Webapp in the browser In the To Do App on my Android Phone When I start Outlook in the browser and check the To Do module there But on my Desktop in the Outlook App the task is listed twice. When I mark it a completed on my To Do app on my Android Phone one of the two task shown gets marked as completed (and is shown as completed in all three places mentioned above), however the other one stays in the not completed status. Triggering the Sync in the To Do module in Outlook does not solve the issue, restarting Outlook does not solve it as well. I have to delete the second task manually in the To Do module. This is really annoying because I get the reminder for a task from the outlook app on Windows but cannot really use Outlook to manage the task there. Does anyone else have this problem?mafugJul 17, 2026Copper Contributor243Views2likes2CommentsMake overdue tasks more visible
I'm a heavy user of To Do, and despite using it every day for several months, I just found the Overdue list under Planned. This is a really important list for me, but burying it here make it much less accessible and valuable. I'd like to recommend two possible approaches to make overdue tasks more visible: Add an "Overdue" smart list to the sidebar, at the same level as Important, Assigned to Me, etc. Have an option to show overdue tasks in My Day similar to the current option for Due Today tasks.Ben_WyattJul 15, 2026Microsoft6.2KViews21likes4CommentsTo Do SUCKS
I don't know who--or what team--designed To Do, but it is absolutely horrendous and is no replacement for Outlook Tasks, which gave you a FULL SCREEN to make notes, and it was easy to do (not pun intended) anything, but To Do opens a tiny window in the middle of the screen that CANNOT be resized, so you have a tiny, tiny pane on the right-hand side of this tiny screen to scroll up and down reading notes. It's beyond horrible. PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE can someone at Microsoft go back to the drawing boards and make an app that fills the whole screen, can be resized, and is easy to use?!Brian LeFlemJul 15, 2026Brass Contributor637Views7likes5CommentsRAM leak in Microsoft To Do on OSX
Hi there. Thanks for the great product. Unfortunately, there is an issue with mac OS. Application freezes and I need to force quit it. After some investigation, I discovered that there was a memory leak. Usage of RAM is slowly increased until all available memory becomes used as a swap. Then the application freezes. The issue appears both on mac OS Catalina and Big Sur. I will highly appreciate any updates about this.

I am not sure if I’m missing something, but is there an easy way to add tasks to a list from the ♾️ All list? I like to add tasks there then be able to add them to lists - I’m hoping to long press and add it to a list or select a list from a drop down when I click into the task. I’m aware of the sorting feature where you select multiple and add them to a list, but that is cumbersome when you only want to add one task to a list.laurenkd89Jul 13, 2026Copper Contributor30Views0likes1CommentMicrosoft To Do Desktop version crashes after I setup Shared List
running Microsoft Edge and Windows 10 - in the desktop version of the To Do app, once I created a Shared File, if I click on an item (email, task, doesn't seem to matter), the app hangs and then closes. It doesn't matter if it is in the Shared File or in a different group. If I removed the Shared File group, I don't have problems crashing.EGreenwood6619Jul 13, 2026Copper Contributor860Views2likes3Comments
