If you accidentally tap something completed, you can tap again to UN-mark it. In each task, you can add “Steps” or what I like to call “Sub-Tasks” – just tap “+ Step” and you can break down the that task into smaller steps that get you to completion.
You can also Group lists together by either clicking “New Group” or dragging one list on top of another.Īnd how cute is this – you can add a lovely little emoji to your list to better differentiate it from the others … just go to your emoji keyboard, find an appropriate symbol and make sure you put it at the very front. You can freely move around your list of Lists or tasks by tapping, holding for a split second, and then dragging around.
Open the app, tap “New List” and then just start adding “tasks”īut it doesn’t have to be a list for tasks – it can be …īut the absolute best part is the PLING!! When you mark a task COMPLETED there is the delightful and satisfactory PLING! That’s the PLING of accomplishment, the PLING of getting something DONE, the PLING of feel-good, productivity dopamine.īut if that isn’t enough the app is FREE! But you do need at least a FREE Microsoft Account to use it – the same account you might already use to sign into your Xbox or Skype.īut if you have a subscription to Office 365 (now Microsoft 365), you can use that because Microsoft To Do will integrate with your Outlook software. No need for any intricate task management craziness, although you can go there if you’d like. Microsoft To Do is a simple, straightforward, easy-peasy app and service that just lets me create a simple list and add tasks. I’m thrilled to report that the Microsoft To Do app does an excellent job of filling that to-do gap for me. Since then, the app has hit a couple of snags along the way, but Microsoft essentially took the best features from Wunderlist and incorporated them into Microsoft To Do. I JUST want a simple app where I quickly add tasks to a to-do list.Īnd I found the perfect app! It’s called Wunderlist!!īut alas I was not the ONLY person that liked it, and Microsoft acquired the app in 2015. I’m a huge fan of amazing tasks management apps, and todo lists, and these are ALL great! Have many friends that use these and I can only aspire to be as productive and accomplish as much as they do.īut I get caught up in the minutiae, tinkering with them and trying to make them fit exactly into a workflow, and end up taking MORE time fiddling with it than using it to manage my work!!
