Are planner notifications actually being worked on?
Hi Dave Heller, can you please let me know if you have set any ETA for this?
- I don't have a specific date yet, but I will share when I do.

Dave Heller People getting annoyed like this is a good sign for you, that means they want to use your product :)
Can you let us know who at Microsoft is stopping you guys from going on a hiring spree so you can increase your velocity on getting these features shipped? We'd like to begin a concerted harassment campaign on them so we can get and use the version of Planner we all think is possible. :D
- Haha! I agree with you on the first part :)
We have a strong team in place that is more than capable of delivering a steady stream of innovation to the product, as you will see in coming months!
Just sharing my opinion, (not sure how feasable this all is), but in my mind, it is pretty simple model and this is how it should work:
Plan-specific options (in the group inbox)
- An option in the plan to enable/disable notifications shared to Group inbox in general (already there)
- An option in the plan to enable/disable Task comments posted to the Group mailbox to the Group
User-specific options (in their personal inbox)
- An option for users to subscribe to all Task updates
- An option for users to subscribe to only updates where they are Assigned the Task or have Commented on the Task
- An option to turn off all notifications, regardless of plan-specific settings
Hi Brent - Thanks for the input! I'll pass it along. We ultimately want to have a greater level of control regarding notifications, per your suggestions.
