Microsoft Planner requires an eligible Office 365 work or school subscription. This app does not support Office 365 personal accounts (for example: name@outlook.com or name@hotmail.com). If you are not sure about your company’s subscription or the services you have access to, please contact your IT department.
Planner provides a simple, visual way to organize teamwork. Planner makes it easy for your team to create new plans, organize and assign tasks, share files, chat about what you’re working on, and get updates on progress.
-- Organize work visually --
Each plan has its own board, where you can organize tasks into buckets. You can categorize tasks based on their status or on whom they’re assigned to. To update the status or change assignments, just drag and drop tasks between columns.
-- Visibility --
The My Tasks view provides a comprehensive list of all your tasks and their status across all your plans. When working together on a plan, team members always know who is working on what.
-- Collaborate --
Built for Office 365, Planner lets you work together on the same tasks, attach captured photos directly to them, and even have conversations around tasks without switching between apps. With Planner, all your team’s discussions and deliverables stay with the plan and don’t get locked away across disparate applications.
-- Works across devices --
Planner works across all your devices. And with Planner, everyone is always on the same page. Continue conversations and updates tasks while on-the-go or at your desk.

I NEED this app which is the only reason I have not deleted it yet. I have managed to find a work around but it is not ideal and sometimes it won’t work that way either, for example when I am filling out a job report that is assigned to me by work, I can start writing my job report but if I then click done when I have finished it will take me to a different screen and when I go back to that job that was assigned to me it is again blank as if I have not written anything yet, SO WHAT I have to do is when I have finished typing my job report, I HAVE TO select a word or two and hit copy (don’t need to paste it) And then that saves the whole report I typed out, I can leave that screen and come back and it is there saved.
