Add task box disappeared after I deleted all Tasks

I was trying to clean out all of the created tasks to setup for our internal demo of Teams and Planner.  In my enthusiasm, I must have deleted the create new task box.  There is no Task Add box now in Planner.

 

I tried uninstalling and reinstalling Planner in Teams.  

 

What else can I do?

    You have to have a bucket to be able to add a task from that view. YOu have to click the all tab, and go direct to a plan to add tasks from scatch, until you have a task in that plan you won't have the add task button.

    Got it back by going into Planner without going into Teams. All looks well in Planner. I think Teams lost a link or something. Planner looks fine and I have all the buttons and features back.
  • You have to open an actual plan to add tasks. The My Tasks view on the planner app doesn't have a place to add tasks that I'm aware of. Are you looking at that default view or something else?

      I am on the default view.  There was a little box on it to add tasks.

       

      When I click on My Tasks, nothing happens.

        Change you view to "Group by Plan" that's the only view that supports adding tasks on Planner app.
