Assign Task Reminders to Assigned Individuals
Currently, To-Do allows you to assign a new task to someone in your shared list. It is great! However, I notice that whenever I assign a task to someone I would have to contact them (via email or text, or phone call) to confirm they have completed the task. I think it would be a very nice feature to have the option to assign task reminders for workers or others to complete the task they are assigned instead of just being given the task. I understand that when a task is assigned you can manually input a reminder for yourself once assigned. However, more times than not, you often forget, therefore, when given a reminder from your boss or manager you are able to be reminded by the app. This would eliminate the need to have your boss remind you to complete the task.
Microsoft Bookings reminders for existing bookings
Hi There, I have added reminders to my services, however users have reported not receiving them. I'm fairly certain reminders aren't added to pre-existing booking appointments. Is there a way to add reminders to existing booking appointments. I have a lot of appointments scheduled (50 or so) and am dreading having to manually edit every single one of them. Hoping there is a shortcut! Cheers, Robin
Reminders not working properly for a modified task
I had a task to take action on a subscription a month before the subscription ended. My intention was to start receiving weekly reminders a month before my deadline. I wasn't sure if the reminders would work as I hoped, but I did extend the subscription before the deadline. At that point I modified my task, setting my due date to sometime in October 2023 and my reminder date to a month before that. The problem is that I am now getting weekly reminders that I don't need until September, and I see no obvious way to fix this when editing the task. This leads me to ask for advice on the best way to modify and re-use tasks. Do I need to mark this task as completed and then modify it and reactivate it, or would even that not stop the reminders until I need them again? I'm dating myself, but this used to be so easy on Palm OS. There was a Repeat option that could be clearly set to None. With Microsoft To Do it is not clear how to turn off Repeat, or how to quickly see what, if anything, the Repeat option is currently set to. Maybe this becomes clear to users over time, but isn't it important for a new user to be able to easily tell whether Repeat is on or off? Is this only to give the app a "cleaner" look? That seems to be a priority for so many apps, but prioritizing a "clean look" can sometimes have a major negative impact on app usability, as it seems to in this case. Also, I have seen other posts complaining about the lack of repeating reminders, but the unneeded weekly notifications I am now receiving are clearly labeled "Reminder." Shouldn't the app make clear whether Repeat applies to the reminder date or the due date? More often than not, what I want to repeat is the reminder, not the task. Thanks in advance for any advice.
Group Booking - Reminder Emails
When setting up a group booking (multiple appointments for one time slot), I've included a reminder email. From the recipient's end the reminder email states: Upcoming booking for Group Booking. I find it confusing for the person booking the appointment to see "Group Booking" since they may not know what that means. Is there a way for it to display the appointment type/title rather than "Group Booking." If so, how can this be adjusted?
