Tasks 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?
Make 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.
To 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?!RAM 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. ThanksSorting tasks into lists from “All” on mobile
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.
Microsoft 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.
Create a 'My week' just like 'My day'
There is an other request (https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/microsoft-to-do/feature-request-add-to-my-day-tomorrow/m-p/1930251) to create 'My Tomorrow' section, but for me it would be more useful to create a plan for the week and generate the 'My day' content from there. The 'My week' would include elements that I want complete or focus during the workweek. 'My week' could be the name, but it is more like a container that can gather elements from multiple lists to show what is my current focus for a longer period than 1 day.All my unassigned tasks vanished overnight
Hi, about 300 of my unassigned tasks -those not on lists- vanished overnight. All of them. My tasks on lists seem to be all there. The previous day, I was doing cleaning on that list, since the android app stopped synching, and it was sluggish before that. I had over 50000 completed tasks on that list. I moved those 300 uncomplete tasks to a temporary list, deleted all completed tasks, then moved those 300 back, and deleted the temprorary list. I most definitely did not delete those 300 tasks in question, and I checked hours before going to bed and going to bed that on my phone, in the desktop app and in my desktop browser they were all present and in synch, and addings tasks was very snappy and synched across devices. Official chat was completely useless and I couldn't even reach or be connected to anybody in the correct department after banging my head against a wall for an hour. I have little hope of fixing this, but is there anything I can do, or should I just finally bail out of using this buggy mess of a software? Thanks
