Alexa and To Do not syncing

We use the Alexa shopping list and sync it to MS To Do. It has been working great, but just stopped. Looking for the the Wonder Do It skill seems to be 'gone'?  Anybody else do this? Having problems...

    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

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.

At least here in the US "Tasks in the Hand" is back up and running. I just added it as an Alexa skill and it worked. It creates the "Alexa Shopping List" in MS To Do. "Alexa add milk" does push milk onto my Alexa Shopping List and into MS To Do. This skills seems to keep the Alexa Shopping List on Amazon and in MS To Do in sync at all times. As far as I remember, the previous skill only pushed in one direction. Finally, I seem to recall being able to add the same item multiple times on Alexa. That was not necessarily a good thing, and now Alexa tells me if I already have the item on the list. Progress?
