Desktop App for Planner?
There only appears to be a web version? Is there an app for a desktop on PC and/or Mac?
- Not currently,
There is a uservoice for it here
https://planner.uservoice.com/forums/330525-microsoft-planner-feedback-forum/suggestions/34471954-desktop-application
Would recommend you vote on it to push it up the agenda. Voting for the uservoice will also notify you if it has been picked up by Microsoft. I would also keep an eye out on this tech community for Planner AMA's where you can also raise this with the product team. There is a big appretite to push Planner forward so hopefully, we'll see something in the future
Hope that answers your question
Best, Chris

MicrosoftColinFBMH I realize this thread is almost 2 years old, but want to share a hack for this that was recently shared with me. While there isn't a desktop app, there is a way to get you to nearly the same experience:
1. Open the MS Planner app in the latest version of the Microsoft Edge browser (this is important)
2. Click the three horizontal dots to the far right of the URL bar
3. Hover over Apps
4. Click "install this site as an app"
This will give you the ability to pin it to your taskbar, creating an experience very close to a desktop app.
Hope this is useful!
I am very late to the party but this is INCREDIBLY useful. I'm working out of AWS Workspace Server 2019 and so apps like "Microsoft Todo" are not installable.
I've been looking everywhere for something similar - since I am kind of odd and dislike website apps as they are.
This is excellent and I could see this being incredibly useful in some form through our org. Thank you!
