Steps should show up on a TO DO list!
I love the functionality of using "steps" within a task in "TO DO." However, when observing my tasks on my task list, I think it would be helpful to be able to see the steps underneath the task. The step list wouldn't need to be as pronounced as individual tasks. They could show up small... like the "1 of 3" steps completed notation shows up under the task... But being able to see the steps from the task list would be FANTASTIC.... Not to get picky, but it would be cool to be able to toggle the steps view on and off for a given task. (So maybe it shows up as a status (1 of 3 steps completed) but you could hit a drop down arrow that lets you see the list. Being able to check them off from that view would also be preferable.
One last thought. Steps wouldn't necessarily have to disappear from the view (underneath the task) when they are completed... It would actually be helpful for them to remain listed (just like they do when you "expand a task" in case you complete steps in a different order.
What I'm asking for is already present. The list of steps is visible when you click on a task. I just think it would be helpful if those steps could be visible ON the task list.

Yes! This lack of visibility of the steps on the main page is the only thing stopping me from transferring over to MS To Do. The rest of the features are exactly what I need, but I have to be able to see the steps!
I like that...similar to what you can do in MS Planner. Should not be that hard to add this feature I would have thought.
I hope to see this updated soon! I completely agree with you :-)
