Microsoft To Do: Your New Planning App
BY: INVID
Microsoft to do is a list management application that is an excellent resource for organizing your daily tasks, setting deadlines for yourself, and prioritizing projects. If you are a list fan, you will love this app. Here are six features of the application.
Deadlines
When creating a task within the app, you can set a deadline for when that task is due, along with reminders to complete it. It is an excellent option for tasks that don’t have to be completed immediately, and you would prefer to be reminded to do it in the future.
When the date you set comes around, the task will show up in your daily to-do task!
Subtasks
Some tasks are more significant than others, which is why the feature of sub-tasking can come in handy for users that want to stay organized on every aspect of their projects. When opening the parent task, you will find a list of the subtasks created.
Prioritize
Microsoft To-Do lets you quickly determine which tasks should be prioritized with a star icon beside the task. On the taskbar on your left, you will see a list labeled «Important,» where all the tasks you have assigned the star will appear.
My Day
Similarly, you can choose to add each task to your daily to-do list. Once you finish adding tasks to your to-do list, you can choose to minimize the list by clicking the «keep on to» button on the top right corner of the application. This will let you keep your task list on screen while you work on other things.
Integration with Cortana
You can also access Microsoft To Do through Cortana. You can command Cortana to add items to your to-do lists or read them aloud. It is also a great way to set up reminders that will appear on your daily to-do lists.
File Storage and Sharing
Microsoft’s To-Do is also an excellent platform for collaboration. If various team members are working on one task, Microsoft To-Do will allow you to share a task with someone else. Additionally, each task allows you to store a file, making it easy and convenient to access the documents you are working on. Furthermore, if an assignment is mutual, the file is also shared.
There you go! Microsoft’s To-Do app is a simple and intuitive application that will help you feel organized and productive throughout your work week.
