Tasks Rollout

Greetings, its now Sept. 24th and still now Tasks, I can't seem to find the rollout timeline anymore (maybe since it started in July) but is it supposed to be the end of Sept at the latest? Later? I understand it is supposed to be default enabled, is there a way to tell if our administrators have disabled it? 
Thanks

  • You add the planner app. It will have the same app and. And initially before changing to Tasks. Load that and it’ll tell you at the top if you have not had the new updates pushed. I think a handful have but they probably ironing out some bugs before pushing to larger audiences but keep checking planner app that’s where it’ll be.
  • Donovon Dildine Well, we are getting somewhere. I see now Planner has ToDo in the app, but still no Outlook flagged tasks yet. So maybe not completely rolled out.

      ChrisWebbTech, totally aware of that it will show up in the Planner and I have the app installed already. Some months there was a notification in the app that it will soon change to Tasks, but after that there's been nothing. Getting somehow tired of Microsoft's rollout schedules as they never seem to be able to keep what they promise...

        Yup it has been somewhat frustrating. I’m sure it’ll be out any day now that Ignite is over.

    Donovon Dildine, been wondering the same...not many days left in September now and still no Tasks!

     

    Does anyone here see the new Tasks app in their tenants yet?
