List order not syncing between devices
The order of items in a list is not syncing between iPhone, Android, and Windows 11. If that list is open on both devices, the manual re-ordering happens immediately. But if it's not open on one device, then the changed order is not syncing after hours or days. The sync buttons are not working - having no effect on list order. This is a new issue - list order used to automatically update within a few minutes. Just started about a week ago. I'm doing anything different. List order is is a really important feature! I'm temporarily having manually reorder on every device. Not a sustainable solution.
'TO DO' MICROSOFT *STAFF*
Is there a Microsoft staff member who's a specialist in To Do, pls? When you only get support staff who aren't familiar with To Do, and even the support page applies to an old version, it's necessary to give this feedback to a line mgr. They also need to view 2 transcripts from me that highlight all the extra work they're creating for themselves. Does anyone have an email address for the To Do support mgr? By PM if prefer.
Microsoft To Do shared list – notifications arrive but the list on my account doesn’t update
Hi, Since Sept 7, 2025, I’ve had a problem with a shared list in Microsoft To Do. There are two users on the list. When the other user adds or completes a task, I get a notification but in my account the list itself does not update: the task still looks unchanged. This happens in all clients I use: web app on Windows PC and Android app (Galaxy A13 5G). If I add or complete tasks, everything syncs normally and the other user sees the updates. The other user does not have this problem. We tried reinstalling apps, rebooting devices, and even creating a new shared list, but the issue remains. Since the same behavior happens on every device with my account, it seems like a server-side sync problem rather than a device issue. Is anyone else experiencing this? Is this a known issue and are there any suggested workarounds? Thanks!Synchronization issue
I have an active Microsoft 365 subscription. My wife and I share Microsoft To Do lists. We recently noticed a synchronization issue: When she creates/deletes/updates tasks, they sync to me. When I create/update tasks, they don’t sync to her. When I delete tasks, they are deleted for her. We’ve already signed out and back in, and tested on different devices and platforms. Permissions are correct, and everything used to work before.
Graph API 1.0 - Listing lists doesn't return all lists (todoTaskList)
Hi, first time posting here, please let me know if I should be doing something differently! I've searched throughout the internet and couldn't find a reason for this. I've got a couple of users running into a problem where the https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/graph/api/todo-list-lists?view=graph-rest-1.0&tabs=http endpoint only returns one list (Flagged Emails), though these users have and see many other lists in the To Do desktop (macOS) app. I've confirmed in both cases it's the same user that's identified in my app/integration and in the desktop app. They can see the tasks in that list without a problem. There are no errors requesting that list, and asking via `/users/{id|userPrincipalName}/todo/lists` also returns the same response (with that one list). Is there any known situation where this could be happening? Am I missing something obvious? Is there something else I should be trying? I've got many other customers using the To Do integration without a problem. I'm aware "My Day" and a few other special lists aren't returned. Thank you so much!

Hello everyone, I've been using the Microsoft To Do app and wanted to discuss an issue regarding the category/tag functionality in task lists. Recently, Microsoft introduced an update allowing the addition of customizable tags to each task within a list. I have successfully configured and assigned these categories via the web interface using a browser. However, I noticed that the categories/tags assigned through the web do not appear in the Microsoft To Do apps for Android, iOS, and Microsoft Store. This makes it challenging to find specific tasks when using these apps. Is anyone else experiencing this issue? Is there any update on when this functionality will be synchronized with the mobile and Microsoft Store apps? Thanks in advance for your help!
Dragging Task onto Outlook Calendar in Web does keep Category (color) (or notes or steps)
So categories could be useful. They have been added now to both the online ToDo app and Outlook Web Calendar. A great feature is in Outlook Calendar (web), you can choose from the top right the a ToDo list side menu and drag a task onto the calendar to make a quick 1/2 hour block and move it around. And you could color code this with categories. HOWEVER, they are not connected. If I choose a category (e.g. Purple) in ToDo and then drag onto the calendar the event does not have a category. I can add it AGAIN if I want or add a different one. (1) I noticed this drag and drop is one-way and any changes in the calendar are not reflected back onto the original task. Fine, you can fix that later, but (2) when I drag the task onto the calendar, why can't the category at least go with it? (3) I noticed the notes and steps don't translate either, but please, the category could be so useful.
