Works well but room for improvements
There are many items in the wish list for the To Do app. For example, there doesn't appear a way to show tasks on the calendar, so need to keep switching between task and calendar view. More customization required for grid and list view layouts. A commenting feature with history would be nice to have. As a personal user, we miss out on using Microsoft planner, wish some of those features were integrated with to do.
The app works well cross platform and syncs well across devices. Also great to have access to onedrive directly from the app.

Please sort out authentication nonsense!!!!!!
This is a pretty good app, nice interface and I like that I can access the same lists across different devices. However, and this is a biggy; my work laptop requires authentication when using personal device. No issues doing this. However, almost every week it logs me out of this app, and therefore I require the authentication, which I can only get if I’m on my laptop, to log back in. This only used to happen when my network password expired, but now it’s constant, and I never get a push notification to let me know. Having to re-authenticate all the time renders this app useless. If I’m travelling or away from my laptop, I want to quickly get an action on my list, and I can’t as I need to login. For a to do list app, this is insane. I’ll just another app.

Refuses to open
Amazing app, love that you can make many lists, make tasks recurring and change themes of lists to your own pictures. However, I just downloaded the app last night and every time I try to open it, it crashes and doesn’t open. Would love to see a bug fix for this issue, as it’s kinda unusable for me at the moment

Irritatingly unreliable
The desktop version is marginally better but the mobile app is a nightmare - it is totally unstable, so you can be typing a note or any number of things and it just crashes and closes with nothing you’ve done saved. Infuriating. Also very limited in not allowing completed tasks to remain searchable by person or to find details easily. Fine as a To Do list but the app is dreadful.

Great but missing function on phone
I really love using this app, however I’m wondering why there isn’t a “sort by categories” function like there is on the PC. I use this app soley for that function because I think it’s really great and amazing, keeps everything organised. Please add this function too on phone, and maybe any other additional organisational function like being able to easily drag tasks into said categories (creating a categories header where u can just drag tasks into or something). It becomes quite troublesome when there’s a lot of tasks to write but you have to manually click each of them into a category.

Incredibly lightweight but highly effective productivity app
I can’t say enough about To Do. I’ve used/tried a lot of different productivity apps over the years but this is by far the best, on balance. Other platforms/apps might have a greater range of features but those features come with complications and a higher requirement of dedication. To Do is a perfect blend of simplicity and punch, plus some incredibly powerful passive integrations with the new Outlook for both email and calendar. The ability to share and collaborate on lists also amplifies the possibilities. Love it.

Seriously full of bugs on iPhone
I loved this app when it was Wunderlist and have kept using it. The product does not appear to be maintained by Microsoft. It’s riddled with bugs and crashes constantly particularly when you are adding tasks (crashes every second task). Also when you are adding notes or links into the notes field. If it’s not being supported I wish Microsoft would simply retire it and we could move to something else.

Crashes frequently
Crashes 1-2x/day minimum, usually within a minute or two of opening the app if I haven’t opened it in a few hours. Always happens when I’m editing a task which is very annoying since the changes aren’t saved when it crashes. Slows down entire iOS until I kill the app after the crash. I would give the app 5-stars if it didn’t crash, but constant crashes mean I can’t even give the app a 3-star “meets expectations” if the app isn’t properly functional. …and of course, it’s a Microsoft product, so we’re all just spinning our wheels writing these reviews. Microsoft is too big to fail and doesn’t care about this. Just look at their support forums for Windows OS. You can never get a response from actual MS Support and good luck getting a human on the phone if you try to call them. All they will do is try to upsell you a support package. I’m writing this review NOT in the hopes that Microsoft fixes it, because realistically they won’t, but to let other potential users know about the frustrations they’ll likely experience if they download the app.

Crashing?!
I use my ToDo on my iPhone 13 and it keeps on crashing. I tried reinstalling app! I wrote to the company and they offered to help and then I didn't hear from them. No problem on my desktop.
Good, but unstable
The app does what it needs to as a basic to-do list app. I find it’s been unstable for the past few months as it crashes randomly and frequently during use.
