You can work through your tasks for the day in My Day and create any number of additional lists to organize your work, travel, shopping – you name it! To Get Started If you haven’t already figured it out, Microsoft To Do is a user-friendly simple way to create To Do lists that help you manage all your tasks in one place. So, whether you’re online, using the desktop version, or on your mobile device, you can view your tasks anywhere at any time. Since all your tasks are stored on Exchange Online servers, you can view them on any platform. I decided to take a look at To Do and see if I could use it in my daily work life, and taking a quick glance, I found it to be user-friendly and very easy on the eyes than the old Lists in Outlook.
I’ve added Tasks here and there on my desktop version of Outlook but that was the extent of it. Personally, I’ve never used the Tasks feature to its fullest potential. What does this mean to you? Nothing really, just a new name, from “Tasks” to “To Do.”
Microsoft is set to update Tasks in Outlook on the web at the end of October, with the full rollout be completed by December 2019.
