Truly outstanding, concise, and detailed app features covering.
i think flagged emails to todolist only works if youre on office365? i could be wrong…i have no flagged email tab edit: my bad, i didnt watch the video to the end. super amped for this type of functionality
I’m new to your channel, trying to get organized. Why use this vs tasks within Outlook?
How can I edit the title of existing task? e.g. Pay Electric invoice to invoices?
Thanks for making this.
Great
I just started using MS To Do and needed these tips on how to make best use of this tool! Your timing of sharing this tutorial was absolutely spot on for me, thank you 👍☺️
Is there a way to edit the list item? I can edit the sub-tasks but have been unable to edit the tasks in a list.
Add to MIcrosoft To Do chrome extension is also pretty cool
Can anyone tell me about cal licensing
Thank youuuuuuu nice video!! 🙂
How can I share my to-do list with people??? edit: it seems there’s a button for this too!
Hi
Whether can we sync the to do with an Excel tracker?
Thanks
The keyboard integration with swift android keyboard is genius. Does iOS allow for change of keyboard?
It’s better than Google keep. Although i hate Microsoft.
What laptop are you using in this video?!
Does in sync with Gmail? And, deos Mac book desktop widget available?
Thank you Leila.
Leila, could you pls find (or CREATE 🙂 ) a way to migrate all the tasks and reminders from Google to Microsoft TO DO?? Lot’s of contents in the web about comparison or how to use, but NONE about migration existing tasks.
Dear Leila, how can I prioritize tasks? (Low, medium, high)
The inability to integrate this with Google calendar makes it unusable for me and my team.
Hello 🙂 I am trying to set a reminder for the person i assigned the task, but the reminder does not work. When I set the task for myself the pop up alert appear but When i send for other person It does not appear.
i like your top it looks good on you
Super this video help me in my daily office work thanks
How can I setup location based tasks?
Wow! I found someone who can explain these programs in a clear and easy to follow flow of information – thank you!
I don’t get option to turn on flagged email in my settings
This app needs an organizer to use it. Way complicated to use for ordinary tasks but effective for business I guess
Thanks
Thank you for this video, it was very informative! Is there a way to keep the Steps under a task always visible? The default is that the Steps collapse under each Task. Is there a way around this?
Such a good tutorial. Thank you!
It’s a great app, however we do think our app has a better experience and user interface.
We also has outlook integration and a lot of features that aren’t exist in Microsoft’s app.
Thank for your great video either way 🙂
You are always awesome.
I just watch the vid’s because she is smoken hot and I love her voice.
What would you suggest to use for yearly returning tasks across departments? Planner, tasks?
We don’t have 365 at work. I currently manage my “to do” via Outlook appointment and OneNote. But, I’ll try out these new tools once we have 365.
Thanks for great explanation like always… Can TO DO be sync with JIRA?
Helpful videos for a newbie! Aside: where did you get that pink button down shirt? love the details.
Thank you Leila
Year later and ToDo still has not the categories in desktop and Android apps, only online. Really shameful of MS
Thank You!
What would cause a task input from Outlook to show up in Mobile To Do app, but once I press Enter in Outlook, it disappears from the task list?
This content is amazing. Very useful and easy to understand
This was very helpful. Thank you!
Fantastic!!
I just tried this app today but I am getting an error while uploading files. Need help please.
Our admin uses this to track tasks relating to various real estate transactions. She has a templated task list that she duplicates for each listing/transaction so steps aren’t missed, however we are noticing that tasks are multiplying within the task list. Meaning, that each task appears two or three times within the list. Is there a way to prevent this or have you experienced this issue? thanks!
Great video Leila and I have learned a lot. I have started to work with my private microsoft account and now I would like to transfer (export) some of the tasks to my business account. I can’t find any advise how to do it. If you do have any idea would be great to share it. Thanks and best regards from Germany.
