Plan and connect with Microsoft To Do
Use My Day and suggestions to plan each day and focus on accomplishing your most important tasks. Connect Microsoft To Do with Outlook to see your tasks there and create new ones from flagged email.
Add tasks to My DayWith My Day and suggestions, it's easier than ever to focus on your most important tasks. When you first open To Do each day, you'll see an empty My Day list where you can enter the tasks you’d like to focus on for the day. After using Microsoft To Do for at least one day, you’ll also be able to add tasks from suggestions.
To plan your day using suggestions:
-
Select the lightbulb in the top right.
-
Review the suggested tasks and select + to add the ones you want to My Day.
You can also enter new tasks directly in My Day.
All of the tasks entered in My Day will also be saved in your Tasks list. Anything you aren't able to complete today will be saved and suggested to you tomorrow.
