You can use the Microsoft To Do Android widget. Like the start menu live tiles, you can do somewhat similar in Android as well. This ensures that the tasks are always in front of your eyes even when the app window is minimized. The tasks from these lists would appear every time when you hit the Start button. You can pin as many To Do lists you want on your Windows Start menu. One such addition is the live tiles in the Windows 10 start menu.
Since Microsoft To Do is a Windows product, there are a whole lot of ways to integrate it in Windows 10. Just add it to Microsoft To Do with the help of the extension and it is automatically synced to the Android device. This also comes in handy when you want to read an article on your way back home. I use it frequently for quickly adding my bills to Microsoft To Do without having to open the app separately. You can additionally choose the List, Due Date, Reminder time, etc.
It automatically takes the subject of the email as the name of the Task and Email link as the description. All you have to do is open an email in Gmail and click on the “Add to Microsoft To Do” extension. However, you could use an open-source extension called “Add to Microsoft To Do”. In case you “star” a conversation or channel, the chat link will appear in the To Do notes with your workspace name as the Task name. However, the Zap works the same way for saved DMs as well. In the new desktop version of Slack, you can save a DM and not star it. This Zap is a handy tool, however, there is no option to add sub-tasks or due time. Zapier ensures that your messages are encrypted while being sent to Microsoft To Do. You will have to connect both your Microsoft To Do and Slack account with Zapier. I have created a Zap that converts Slack messages to Microsoft To Do tasks as soon as you have starred them. There’s no direct way to link your Slack with Microsoft To Do. For instance, I hashtag office related work as “#TechWiser” so I can see all the YouTube tasks at a glance. If you tap on the hashtag you can quickly see all the tasks with the same hashtag.
Hence, you can enter hashtags with the task name which makes it easier to find them. When a whole lot of people collaborate in the app, it gets chaotic to find important tasks. Hashtags or labels is an old Wunderlist feature and you have it in Microsoft To Do as well. Having said that, it still doesn’t support assigning individual tasks to users and it would be a nice addition. I can easily share To Do lists with my colleagues and anyone with a Gmail account can collaborate. But, after the new update, it works with a Gmail account as well. However, until now, you need to have a Microsoft account for using the To Do app. You can share a list with your colleagues and all of them can work on the tasks together. Microsoft To Do lets you collaborate with other people within the app. Unfortunately, these swipe gestures are not customizable. These swipe gestures work in an identical way for the desktop app as well. You can swipe left on a Task to delete it and swipe the other way to add it to your day. The swipe gestures have existed for a while in the app but I haven’t heard enough people talk about it. Moreover, if you have a big screen and you don’t like reaching the notification drawer every single time, you can also create a quick shortcut on your home screen which functions in a similar way. This leaves a Silent Notification on the notification drawer and you can tap on it to quickly add a task. You can enable “Quick add notification” in the To Do app settings. However, it’s not seamless and the assistant adds the note to its native n4ote manager. Microsoft To Do works with the Google Assistant. You can quickly select and drag-and-drop the text onto the To Do app to create a new Task.ĭrag-and-drop gesture works with every app that allows selection of text. For instance, if you have a Chrome browser or Gmail opened on one half of the screen and To Do opened in another half. But now, you can open Microsoft To Do and the other app in split mode. Normally, you would copy a piece of text and then open the To Do app and paste it under a New Task. However, this gesture is only available when the app is open in split mode.

In the recent update of Microsoft To Do, you have the drag-and-drop gesture. I have set daily reminders at 09:30 pm so I can jot down the tasks for tomorrow. It’s turned off by default and can be modified under the “Plan your day reminders” section under the Settings. Microsoft To Do has an option to remind yourself about entering daily tasks. This ensures that I start my day early according to the work. I usually write down my pending work and tasks in hand a day before. I have the habit of planning my day in advance.
