Alexa and To Do not syncing
- Apr 02, 2021
I just noticed I have the same issue. I was using the Wonder Do It skill. I found somewhere online that the I you can download the skill called Tasks in Hand instead. I tried this but it’s not working, I think because I have an office 365 business account and not a personal account. Let me know if any of you make any headway
At least here in the US "Tasks in the Hand" is back up and running. I just added it as an Alexa skill and it worked. It creates the "Alexa Shopping List" in MS To Do. "Alexa add milk" does push milk onto my Alexa Shopping List and into MS To Do. This skills seems to keep the Alexa Shopping List on Amazon and in MS To Do in sync at all times. As far as I remember, the previous skill only pushed in one direction. Finally, I seem to recall being able to add the same item multiple times on Alexa. That was not necessarily a good thing, and now Alexa tells me if I already have the item on the list. Progress?
- mallanbellApr 10, 2021Brass ContributorI just re-enabled it, but it isn't adding. I will try to delete it(?) and re-add to see if it is working.
Thanks!- mallanbellApr 10, 2021Brass ContributorDisabling then re-enabling a few times worked. wooooooot!
- mallanbellApr 10, 2021Brass ContributorOK, so current situation seems to be; Tasks In The Hand is working in both USA and UK.

jlavos I had the same issue initially but I logged out of MS to do and then back in and it has been working.
- NaxmanApr 10, 2021Copper ContributorTask in the Hand is available here in the UK and I've added it as a skill. When you ask Alexa to "Add milk to my shopping list" it creates a list in Alexa/Amazon and MS to Do Called Alexa Shopping List. It's a good start.
- silverdrgiApr 10, 2021Copper ContributorIt also works with adding things to your to do list. It worked for me today in United States for both to do list and for the shopping list
