Microsoft To Do Tasks Disappeared
Thank you, I appreciate you taking the time to help however, I have deleted the app. I lost years of information, wasted days trying to get it back and now have absolutely no trust or belief in MS so won't be risking it again.
Thanks anyway,

We still encounter the issue of randomly disappearing tasks. All MS To-Do Tasks will just disappear on their own. And this is while only using MS To-Do online.
Jon_Beh , "Do you have suggestions on a good alternative to Microsoft To Do?"
I've used the TaskTask app on my iPhone for many years, successfully syncing with Windows Outlook. I wouldn't be surprised to see the roll-out of New Outlook (New Coke) to break it.
I too lost many of my tasks when I tried the iPhone To Do app. Note that this was not a browser-caching issue -- the tasks were permanently deleted from my Office 365 Exchange account, synced with Windows Outlook. I tried To Do twice, over a year apart, and each time experienced corruption.
- Wait. So you're using TaskTask even though it syncs with Windows Outlook?
I've spent the past 4.5 hours being bounced around Microsoft Support and have talked to roughly 9 different people. At this point I don't want anything to do with Microsoft and want to switch entirely to Google or elsewhere. So I'm hesitant to use TaskTask if it's involved with Microsoft Outlook. Google Docs, Google Sheets and Wunderlist have never given me these issues. Shocking a big and powerful company like Microsoft can't get something as basic as 'saving your reminders' correct- Right, I have a Microsoft 365 Exchange account accessed by Windows Outlook, iPhone Outlook, and iPhone TaskTask, all of which sync with Exchange. It works well. Only when I try to use To Do do I lose tasks.
