### 3/5 — Extremely Slow

*2025-05-02, version 5.5.5*

If you have more than about 50 tasks ( including recurring tasks ) then this app is extremely slow, taking about a minute to update after completing a task.

### 4/5 — Bona eina per anotar tasques

*2024-09-18, version 5.5.5*

Permet apuntar agilMent tasques i que s’orden per data venciment, pero no es pot ordenar per categories.

### 4/5 — Easy to use with ms exchange connectivity

*2024-08-03, version 5.5.5*

The reminder couldn’t set the time only dates

### 2/5 — Ryan Gregg Left This in the Dust

*2023-10-28, version 5.5.5*

Sadly, Ryan Greg LLC has left this wonderful app in the dust. It is, by far, the best task app out there. It has a few minor challenges that the developer should be able to solve in short order, but he has left it for dead. So I cannot recommend you pay for this anymore. 

The biggest issue I face is that it randomly stops connecting to my personal Microsoft 365 account. It takes days/weeks to get it to properly authenticate and begin working again. It works fine with my work M365 accounts. 

Perhaps Ryan is afraid of completing the privacy info for the app, perhaps he’s tired of it, he was abducted by aliens, or some other reason. But if he is listening, hey, would love it if you would update this great app… my most used!!

### 4/5 — App just stopped working.  Please bring it back!

*2023-06-24, version 5.5.5*

Today 06-24-23 the app just stopped working.  I received a window telling me the “the specified object was not found”.  I love this app.  Please figure out the problem and correct it!

### 4/5 — It a good app for my version of GTD / Outlook Categories

*2023-02-19, version 5.5.5*

Best Task App for my workflow.

### 3/5 — Bad for Microsoft 365

*2022-12-06, version 5.5.5*

Two years with no updates. Looks like this great app is in cash cow mode now. 

This is the best app for managing tasks. All the other apps by MS are horrible. I’d you have a company Office 365 or Exchange account, you will probably be fine. 

Why on earth this has so many issues with a person Office 365 / Microsoft 365 account, I do not know. I do know it is painful to use it with a personal subscription. 

Every now and then it just stops working. Then you have to delete the app, redownload it, and try to reconnect/login. I say try because sometimes it won’t work for days (on multiple devices), then all of the sudden I can get logged back in on both of my devices and get back to work. In the meantime, it’s a mess trying to get things done. 

I’m no expert, but I have other apps that use person M365, so I would assume the issue is with this app, sadly. 

So my dream is the developer updates it and makes it work better with person M365… and any other new stuff that would help, as in the ability to add user defined fields (I have one I added to outlook to prioritize/rank tasks).

Even with the issues, this is still one of my favorite apps.

### 2/5 — Cannot sort tasks by Outlook category

*2021-10-23, version 5.5.5*

This app would be 5 stars but I cannot sort tasks by Outlook categories which I heavily rely on which makes it useless for me :(

### 2/5 — Phone display

*2021-10-20, version 5.5.5*

I would like tasks ordered by categories as it is on the computer. But it does not seem to do this on the phone.

### 2/5 — Resets every few days

*2021-05-13, version 5.5.5*

This aft works great, when it works. Every few days you have to delete the app. Download it again, sync it with your outlook and it will work for a few days. Then it will crap out and you have to repeat the process. Unfortunately it’s probably the only app that works with outlook tasks, and it’s very frustrating.

### 2/5 — Good but needs to sort by category

*2021-02-21, version 5.5.5*

Category sorting required

### 3/5 — MS Synchronisation

*2021-01-05, version 5.5.5*

Insgesamt gutes Tool. Aber Nutzung mit Outlook sind nicht alle Möglichkeiten wie z.B. farbliche Kennzeichnung gegeben.

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Um, no.

*2026-02-21, version 5.5.5*

Another task list that requires an account to function. No thanks. That should be a option, not a requirement.

### 1/5 — PRETTY BAD

*2023-08-21, version 5.5.5*

YOU can’t order the tasks.  The color is missing. Color task settings don’t translate into the black and white lists.  There are too many items there from the ancient past in “tasks”.  This is not fun to use and I’m sorry I got it.  Yes, it syncs with outlook to do,  but that’s its only virtue.  Otherwise it’s a joyless and useless app.

### 1/5 — It often doesn’t synch

*2023-08-14, version 5.5.5*

It often doesn’t synch

### 1/5 — The AP stoped working

*2023-06-14, version 5.5.5*

I used to like this app .: it stopped working, and I have nobody to contact for support

### 1/5 — Used to be great, now unusable

*2021-12-08, version 5.5.5*

Two factor authentication has broken this once great app, I now can’t even sign in to my account. Such a shame because it was brilliant.

### 1/5 — Great App no support

*2021-12-03, version 5.5.5*

Great app but no support response

### 1/5 — Corruption of data

*2021-08-31, version 5.5.5*

Do not use this app.  It will corrupt the data in your outlook tasks.

### 1/5 — A step back from TaskTask HD

*2021-06-28, version 5.5.5*

I had previously purchased TaskTask HD which suddenly has stopped working for ios 14.6 on the iPad and seems to not be supported any more.

Obviously you are supposed to pay full fee anew…

Then comes the disappointment: In TaskTask HD you could sort your tasks according to categories (e.g., to set up GTD-like management of tasks and to have task be shown according to work context). This is now not possible any more and task can only be shown according to due dates - for lack of phantasy?

Why then should we pay even more money to get additional outlook field shown, when they can never be used for filtering?

A nuisance that will hopefully be fixed soon.

### 1/5 — Secondary Sorting?

*2020-11-11, version 5.5.5*

Why is this yet another task app that sorts by due date (good) but then offers no option to sort alphabetically within dates, other than manually (good)?  Years ago, it used to do this perfectly.  But apparently no more.  Another wasted opportunity to match the sorely missed Wunderlist.  Waste of a download.

### 1/5 — unable to verify account / no response

*2020-09-17, version 5.5.5*

Using a company exchange server the app is unwilling to verify the account details no matter what is done
IT in-house wouldn‘t find any obstacle, both wifi or cellular connection are no difference.
Unfortunately emails to TaskTask remain without reply so I‘m seeking this way to get in touch.

### 5/5 — Best Test manager around

*2026-05-22, version 5.5.5*

I love this app. I’ve been using it for years. I just pray it never goes away. It’s the most functional and useful of all the apps that work with Microsoft.

### 5/5 — Works well, but tricky UI

*2023-01-28, version 5.5.5*

Sync works fine, and the ability to work with all data in an exchange task is brilliant.

It’s surprisingly hard to find features like changing views, though (turns out to be hidden behind the share button)

### 5/5 — gute Synchronisation mit Exchange …

*2022-03-10, version 5.5.5*

… ein Widget für den iPad-Oberfläche fehlt mir noch-so als Vorschlag 😉

### 5/5 — Still the best

*2021-11-11, version 5.5.5*

Out of all the exchange apps this remains the best

### 5/5 — Excellent Task Management App

*2021-10-07, version 5.5.5*

If you use Microsoft Outlook Tasks, this is the only app that replicates the functionality of all the features available. Including categories, due dates,  attachments etc. I have been using this app for years now and it has worked perfectly. It’s so good… But I think Microsoft could learn a thing or two about how to implement their own features onto their To Do app…

### 5/5 — Funktioniert sehr gut

*2021-02-10, version 5.5.5*

Tolle Verwaltung für die Exchange Aufgaben. Bietet alle Eigenschaften für die Aufgaben, inklusive Kategorien und auch die Anzeige aller markierten Mails zur Nachverfolgung. Die Bedienung über Touch geht natürlich auch besser von der Hand als mit der Tastatur im Outlook. Wirklich praktisch und umfangreich.
Perfekt wäre noch eine Version für die Apple Watch.

### 5/5 — Excellent for TBYL and managing tasks by category with multiple customisable views

*2020-12-11, version 5.5.5*

Excellent

### 5/5 — Can’t live without it

*2020-11-10, version 5.5.5*

Gives me great peace of mind to have my tasks under control. I spend as much time in TaskTask as in my calendar app. 
Thank you. Great app!

### 5/5 — Best Outlook Task App. Effective Edge Friendly

*2020-10-03, version 5.5.5*

With the .99 cent upgrade you can see detailed notes to include attached emails as tonight in Effective Edge training. You can also sort by category. Best I’ve found to mirror the outlook task functionality.

### 5/5 — Widget for iOS 14 please

*2020-09-23, version 5.5.5*

THIS APP is the only one that works flawlessly with MS Exchange. What would be very helpful now is a TaskTask Widget for iOS 14!
