### "The Only Planner You'll Need "

August 31, 2022

4.0

I use this software on a daily and it has helped me manage my tasks at work but also at home. The reminders come in handy I never worry about forgetting anything . Also it is quite easy to use especially if you are using it for the first time.

Pros

The fact that I can easily customize my reminders and tasks to suit my needs is a plus. It has enabled me to stay organized thanks to the daily planner.

Cons

Non so far I'm enjoying using the software.

### "Microsoft TODO is amazing, Never forget anything again"

June 3, 2022

5.0

I use this to schedule out my daily, weekly & monthly tasks. So far in the 2 years that i've used this app i havent forgotten a single task as it will keep reminding you until you clear it.

Pros

The best part about this software is that it pairs with windows since its created by microsoft and when the computer is locked, you can still see your reminders on the lockscreen itself. Highly recommended. Never forget anything again with this app.

Cons

The thing I liked least about this app is that it links with your email client on the PC and I have so many random flagged email reminders which are false positives and shouldn't have been flagged to begin with. But those are easily clearable.

Reason for choosing Microsoft To Do

It integrates with windows very well, the fact that I get physical reminders in my notification center & on the lockscreen help out quite a bit.

### "The best free todo app out there"

May 31, 2022

5.0

Pros

It's free and has most of the features you would expect from a todo app.

Cons

It lacks the premium feel that you can see from paid applications. You can see this especially while collaborating with others: inviting your friends/family to shared lists is very unintuitive.

### "A great task management application!"

November 3, 2022

5.0

Pros

I love Microsoft To Do because is a versatile application that allow teams manage their tasks efficiently. Even that it's free you can use it on any device making easier to follow up and set deadlines. It's great because you can manage all your tasks in one place. The option to see your day and filter important tasks is a must.

Cons

Honestly I don't complain about this tool. Would love to have a license just in case that anything happens in the future

### "Microsoft To Do is the Best App for Task Management "

February 15, 2022

5.0

My overall experience with Microsoft To Do is very good and i strong recommend this software for inviduals who are looking for an incredible app full of amazing features and tools for task management. By using this app i am able to make my to do list and manage my work better it also integrate with outlook.

Pros

I am using Microsoft To Do on daily basis for managing my work and priorities. The user interface is very easy to understand and full of helpful tools and features. Some of important features of Microsoft To Do includes mobile access, recurring tasks and collaboration tools. Microsoft To Do is free and supports android, window 10 and iphone. With the help of Microsoft To Do we can easily share lists with our colleagues and friends to stay in touch.

Cons

Microsoft To Do is doing great but if they improve there customer support, add some more collaboration features and tools then definitely this is number of software for task management.

### "Finally a replacement for sticky notes! "

January 22, 2019

5.0

Overall, I highly recommend Wunderlist to help you keep up with your many to-dos during the day and week. I have found it especially helpful for me to create daily and weekly goal lists so that I can balance my priorities better even when my daily to-dos change at a moments notice. I highly recommend this product for everyone!

Pros

It is hard to choose just one aspect of Wunderlist that I liked most. It is so easy to use and I love that you can sync the lists between your computer and your phone. It is especially helpful that these lists take no time to update so if you are sharing a list with someone, they can immediately see your additions!

Cons

The only thing I think Wunderlist is missing is the capability to write an actual paragraph or larger document. While it is great for brainstorms and quickly entering lists, I wish you could have the ability to write a few sentences at a time in a paragraph format.

### "Perfect list maker & reminder for a busy CEO"

September 9, 2019

5.0

It helps keep me on task throughout the day. Because it's easy to create recurring reminders, it helps me accomplish many routine tasks that I must take care of every day that I might otherwise put off. It is more simple than other scheduling apps I use but I see this simplicity as a benefit because I can use it quickly and it's easy to access and see what I need.

Pros

Wunderlist makes it very easy for me to enter a reminder for myself either on my phone or my computer. It syncs nearly instantly so I know my reminder will be on all my devices when I need it. It's very easy to set recurring reminders. It is also easy to create shared lists, we do this with our family grocery list so my wife and I can keep track of who needs to pick up what groceries!

Cons

I have used Wunderlist for a long time. I find the backgrounds a little boring. I would appreciate some new backgrounds or the option to upload a custom background.

### "More than a to-do list"

March 23, 2019

5.0

I really appreciate how many uses I have found for Wunderlist. As well as being a place to organize upcoming tasks, and assigning them dates, it can be used for sharing with other people, thereby letting team-members keep each other apprised of progress on a project. At home, I can use the same function to share shopping lists with family members, ensuring that the shopper knows most recent needs, and a second shopper does not duplicate purchases. I find this is also a useful place to keep checklists: I have one list for the items to gather to take to a display event, another for the questions I use at every art-class portfolio panel in which I participate, and yet another to keep track of the steps I need to follow when sharing finished work that needs to be posted to several individuals, places and websites. I love that I can add an URL to a task, and when I click on it, the site opens for me in a new tab, I can do what I need, then close it and continue down my list. So Simple! I have a Wunderlist of books and authors I want to remember when I am at the library. I use Wunderlist on my laptop, and i have the app on my iPhone. They sync well, and I can access any of the lists whenever I want, wherever I am.

Pros

I like the versatility. I like that one app can meet needs at the office and with my family, and even for my own reference when I am choosing a movie or a book.

Cons

I don't like the \*ding\* that sounds when a task is marked complete. I deliberately mute that tab every day.

### "Staying ontop of it"

September 30, 2022

5.0

I love this software. I helps keep me on tasks, especially when there is lot to get completed. Making to do notes in one place is so much better than sticky notes or note pads everywhere, plus you can pick up your notes on any device.

Pros

Easy to use, editable, and notifications

Cons

Could do better on integration to calendar

### "To-Do And Task Lists Should Be This Easy"

June 24, 2018

5.0

Wunderlist is a great tool with no complex features or complex functionalities. A true simple to use To-Do List that serves not only people for personal needs, but also businesses. In fact, Wunderlist can even be applied to small businesses to get work done. With its sharing capabilities, mobile access and conversation capabilities, Wunderlist is possibly the easiest task manager out there. It may not track things like time and other critical metrics, but for businesses that revolve around the premise of getting tasks done regardless of those other variables, Wunderlist might very well be the answer.

Pros

Wunderlist is the simplest To-Do and Task List out there. Period. No extra bells and whistles: just a list. And it makes getting started extremely quick. Login with your Facebook, Windows or Google account. Don' t have these? Create a user account with your email and a password. The first thing that comes up is a simple wizard with a few pre-defined list names to get you setup fast and start using your list. Using Wunderlist is simple. Add an item to your list. You can set a due date and even a reminder. Make the task a one time deal or a recurring schedule as needed. No longer need the due date? Simply remove it. And mark it as started so you have a visible indicator of what is in progress and what is not. You can also add a voice message to your task. Wunderlist recently added a new feature where you can create folders to group your to-do and task lists. And if you want to see all your completed items, a simple button lets you do just that. Want to share your list? You can do that, too. And even start conversations around your To-Do and Tasks. Connect your calendars to Wunderlist as well. Wunderlist has an app for your smartphone and even allows you to integrate it to your browser via an extension

Cons

There are absolutely no cons with Wunderlist. It is a To-Do and Task list with the most straightforward approach I have ever encountered. It does not get easier than this.

### "Great for keeping on track."

October 17, 2019

5.0

Since we introduced Wunderlist to our business, we really seem to stay on top of things. If you remember something needs to be done, you can easily open the app and add it to the To-Do list and assign it to the proper staff member. As the owner, I can easily track what has been accomplished or the amount of progress that has been made on an assignment. It seems to motivate everyone to quickly get things checked off the list and move on to the next task. It has definitely been an asset to our company.

Pros

This app is wonderful for keeping tasks organized and on track. What we love most is the ability to assign tasks to others, share information, and make notes, and work together to finish tasks quickly and efficiently. It's a bonus that you can use it not only for business, but personal tasks as well, while keeping all of the "to- dos" separate. We love that it works equally as well on our laptops, tablets, and phones.

Cons

I tried to find something I dislike about this app, but I could not. Maybe they could add a larger selection of backgrounds.

### "Always Best to use Microsoft To Do "

September 2, 2022

5.0

Pros

It's challenging to handle everything at once while running a small family, running a small business, and working a full-time job. I use Microsoft To-Do to ensure I don't miss deadlines for projects I'm working on and to keep all of my chores organized into their appropriate "families," if you will. Additionally, it aids me with long-term planning and vision. To-Do lists for extensive projects that could take months or years to complete are managed by groups. Before I started using Microsoft To-Do, things were slipping through the gaps or a deadline would approach and I wouldn't have time to find a workable solution.

Cons

If the initial deadline is set to a future date while adding a task with recurring deadlines, the deadline will change to "Today." As a result, I have effectively set the deadline twice. I'll set the repeating schedule first, followed by the deadline, if I remember this bug.

### "Wunderlist keeps me on task"

December 4, 2018

5.0

Wunderlist has made my life so much easier as the Office Manager. The software sends me email notifications that remind me that recurring tasks are due so I don't miss a deadline. I even use it to create supply lists for our office. Before I go shopping, I can place the supply items in particular order so that I am not walking in circles from department to department so I can quickly get in and out of the store. Wunderlist has allowed me to be a more efficient Office Manager.

Pros

I like how straightforward the software is. It is very functional and doesn't make the simply process of creating a task list or supply list a chore to create.

Cons

I really don't have any complaints about Wunderlist. The only small problem I have is that recurring tasks disappear temporarily on the iPhone app when I check off that it has been completed. However, when I restart the app, the task reappears as it should with the next deadline date shown.

### "Wunderlist, a wunderful task managing app for professional and personal use"

September 26, 2019

5.0

It's flexible, easy to use and I share lists regularly with other people who also jumped on the bandwagon and started using it on their own. It speaks for itself, just try it out and you'll see. I really hope the new "Todo" app will keep the Wunderlist legacy strong.

Pros

\- Very user friendly and I can easily add people to contribute to lists who, without any prior experience, always intuitively find their way around the UI. Also, fool-proof. You can find checked-off items in a separate list and quickly undo any mistakes. - Excellent for personal use (to-do's, wishlists, notes, etc.) - Excellent for teams (you can add comments and description to tasks, add subtasks, syncing works very well, prioritizing, notifications when someone adds anything, etc.)

Cons

\- Maybe an extra viewing possibility with thumbnails would be helpful for some use-cases. For example, we also use Wunderlist for development tasks. But maybe that would be more of a thing for other, more scrum-dedicated apps. - Sometimes the order of your items get a bit screwed up during syncing, which can be quite frustrating for priority-basef lists. But it's quickly reorganized with the drag and drop feature when it happens. - Colors for the body of items would be nice for some extra organizing.

### "Task management and tracking using Microsoft To Do"

October 25, 2022

5.0

Pros

Microsoft To Do is very easy to use for creating tasks. It also sends notifications and reminders regarding the task. Previous tasks can be easily tracked and modified if required. Since it is compatible with all devices, it is convenient to use it anytime from any device.

Cons

It can be made more customizable by adding the option of choosing different colours or font styles. The reminder works for only the specific day for which it is set and the task is required to be added every day to get the notification.

April 24, 2026

Being able to access my lists on all of my devices is a great thing to have. If I forget my laptop at work, I can access my list from my phone at home.

Pros

I really like that I am able to easily create a schedule and make a list of things I need to get done at work. Being a teacher, I have many things that need to be completed at certain times of the week. This makes my life much easier.

Cons

I have not come across anything I dislike about the software. Everything has been great so far when using the software.

### "Wunderlist is WONDERFUL!"

December 13, 2018

5.0

Pros

This is hands down my absolute most favorite app EVER! It's super intuitive, very easy to use - I even got my mom to start using it. I did a lot of research trying to find the best application to use for making lists that are sharable and editable between multiple users. It's free! It's VERY easy to set up and start using. I share almost 12 lists with my bf who I live with in order to keep track of groceries, items to return, places we want to try and eat, activities for date night etc. I also keep lists for myself for work and home errands. I can keep lists for ideas for presents with people etc. I LOVE LOVE this application. It has simplified my life and kept us organized without even trying, also I'm a total sucker for the little noise notification when you check off a item on a list - it's like an audible pat on the back!

Cons

No complaints - seriously not even one. If I haaaad to make one maybe that I could customize the colors however that would be it!

### "Easy, multifunctional to do app"

February 12, 2019

5.0

I love Wunderlist. It has a lot of functions, but you can also use it as a simple to do list app if you don't want to make use of all of the integrations and bells and whistles. I use it to manage all of my tasks, from cleaning out my car to finishing client projects.

Pros

After trying lots of other to do apps, I've settled on Wunderlist. It has desktop and phone apps, both free. that instantly sync. You can set different due dates and reminders, and organize your to-dos into different categories, or just drop them into the Today tab. You can also choose a cute background in the app - for example, I have a cute puppy sleeping under my to dos. Wunderlist can also sync with your calendar, so you can see all of your tasks as you look at your plan for the day.

Cons

The repeating tasks stack up...when you do the task for the week, for example, it automatically pops up reminding you to do it again the following week. This is a bit deflating, as you just completed the task in question and don't need to be reminded to do it again!

### "Microsoft To Do for Productivity"

August 17, 2022

5.0

Overall, I think Microsoft To Do is a great software option for planning your day and managing tasks for work, school, and life. I highly recommend it for someone who is in need of a digit platform that has a simple and user friendly interface.

Pros

I like that Microsoft To Do is an app within Microsoft Online. It is easy to access through your Microsoft login, and it is a simple and user-friendly platform. You can add due dates, reminders, and associated files to your tasks, and they can be easily viewed on your list. When making a task, you can also organize them based on color, and create your own code (for example, a red task can mean that it is more urgent and needs to be completed first).

Cons

I like that Microsoft To Do is connected to your other Microsoft applications, and it can suggest tasks based off of what you receive in your email. However, the suggestions are often times incorrect and can be a little annoying. I wish there was a way to highlight certain aspects of emails and add them to your "to do" list instead of the suggestions automatically populating.

### "Great to do list app for your large business "

March 24, 2019

4.0

This application is a great tool to use for your company no matter the size or honestly for your personal life. It allows you the ability to utilize this from your handheld device all the way up to your tablet and laptop. It gives you the range to make note of any task or job that needs completed and allows any employees that you have shared individual list with to see those tasks in real time from the time they are posted to that. This is by far the greatest to do list app I have ever used for a job or personal use. I highly highly recommend anybody and any job field to utilize this app you will see great results in a short amount of time I promise you that.

Pros

Ease of use Easy to communicate and track jobs needing to be completed Ability to assign to individuals Able to post images Able to set reminders/due dates Easy to communicate with supervisor

Cons

I haven't really found any issues yet and I have been using this product for quite a while now.

### "Amazing. Accomplishes what I need it to. Best task application for collaboration as well."

April 9, 2018

5.0

Organization. Ease of use. Makes my life better and organized.

Pros

Collaboration. When I was married we synced a few lists and it made grocery shopping or "to-do" lists around the house a BREEZE! Ability to add photos and comments to each task/list is great as well, you can get creative with it. We would even create shopping lists of potential gift ideas for the children with photos of the item in the store to remember what was what and the price. My second favorite feature is the ability to log-in on the computer. I can type much faster there and can add 100 items and organize my lists quite quickly for easier access later on the phone or tablet.

Cons

No cons. It is worth paying for. I haven't had any glitches with this software. I added a widget to my phone's homescreen for quick access and I use it every day.
