Shared Lists

I'm really disappointed that this application has not supported the feature to allow shared lists.  I use Wunderlist now and honestly have not made the change to To-Do because of this.  I use it at w...

I personally agree with you guys, it would be fantastic that this application allows us to share.

    Hi Keturah.  Sharing now shows up as a feature in our To-Do.  However, it doesn't seem to work.  I sent two colleagues the link to a To-Do list, and when they click it, it only takes them to their To-Do page, and my list is not available to them.  

     

    I checked the options page, and the "limit access to current members" option is turned off.  If it were on, I could understand why nobody can be added to my list, but it was off by default.

     

    Any thoughts on what might be going on here?

      Hi William Swann I'm really sorry for the trouble there. Sharing hasn't been fully implemented just yet which is why your colleagues weren't able to join the list. We're currently working to optimize sharing before it's fully available to the public. Again, I'm really sorry that you encountered that glitch while we finalize the feature.

        Hi Keturah! Similar to Kurt's original post, I use Wunderlist with work colleagues and with my wife. She, obviously, doesn't have an account with my small business. In order for Teams+Outlook to work correctly, I need to use my work account with To Do. However, neither of us can share lists because she has a Microsoft personal account and I have a Microsoft work(/school) account. Apparently the two aren't allowed to speak to one another? It's a very strange setup. Will this get fixed, or should I move my email/domain to Google, then get us all signed up with Microsoft personal accounts, and use the free version of Teams and To Do? Thank you!
