Alexa and To Do not syncing
I just noticed I have the same issue. I was using the Wonder Do It skill. I found somewhere online that the I you can download the skill called Tasks in Hand instead. I tried this but it’s not working, I think because I have an office 365 business account and not a personal account. Let me know if any of you make any headway
- Well, I think I have my short/long term solution....not the best, but will work for us. I am back to an app call OurGroceries
It is a very good, shareable, grocery list app and has a skill for Alexa. It is working, for now. Looks like I will deprecate the MS To Do from my daily use.mallanbell Well I tried ourgroceries skill and it worked one time and then no more. I think the integration requires to ask ourgroceries to add the item and not just asking alexa.
- silverdrgi, yeah waking up the skill is a bit different from the wonder do it skill. 'alexa, tell ourgroceries to add 'blah'' seems to work for me.
mallanbell OurGroceries is certainly a great grocery list replacement so thanks for that suggestion. In my case I use MS To Do more for tasks, projects and checklists than for shopping, so while I may miss the Alexa integration I can’t abandon all of the other great features. I’ve decided to use Alexa’s To Do list as an Inbox to capture new task when I don’t have a device handy. Then, once a day I’ll paste the new tasks in MS To Do. Hopefully the gap will be closed by Amazon or Microsoft in due time.
