To-Do's To Do vs Outlook's To-Do List

Ibrar -

Outlook Tasks sync to Microsoft To-Do. There's nothing you have to do, there is no migration necessary and the end user can choose to use either Outlook Tasks or Microsoft To-Do. Just like tasks entered in Microsoft To-Do will sync to Tasks in Outlook. There are a few differences in the available features between the two applications, so for some, creating the task in Outlook will make more sense (for example, a recurring, auto-generated task can currently only be created in Outlook) while a task with steps would have to be created and managed in To-Do as the steps don't sync to Outlook Tasks. Attachments are another discrepancy. They currently exist only in Outlook Tasks.

What does not sync from Outlook to To-Do (yet) are follow-up flags assigned to emails. But these aren't really tasks, they're more like reminders.

Overall, there are plenty of reasons and features already in place to use To-Do for your daily task management.
