Weekly view for To-Do
"My day" panel is really useful, but we also need look and have present always our week goals. The possibility bump all our to-dos help to declutter our mind, but this doesn't have sense if we can't organize or order them. So by this reason think is necesary a week view or a monthly view, even a more especific dayly view (maybe by hour or by morning/afternoon/night) could be really productive.

We are actively working on a MacOS App for Microsoft To-Do. Stay tuned, it will definitely come.
Builds that support older versions of Windows, like Windows 7 or Windows 8 are not planned for Microsoft To-Do. On those devices, please try to use the Web App on https://todo.microsoft.com alternatively.

Integrate with All Microsoft Products
If Microsoft is going to give us a new to-do product, it needs to integrate with all the other existing Microsoft products: Cortana Reminders, Planner, TFS, Outlook Tasks, MS Project.
2,067 votesHi,
We are working on integrations with several other Microsoft services, such as Outlook, Cortana and others. However, we would like to encourage you to vote for specific integrations here in Uservoice instead of voting for this general idea. This will help us prioritize.
Thanks a lot

BUG: synchronisation issues
Windows 10 app has incredible synchronization issues. Sometimes all tasks disappear from the app and then sync once again, but usually not fully.

iOS app seems to be the most reliable.

Task entered in Outlook shows wrong due date in MS To-Do
If I add a new Task in Outlook, set the Due Date as 15 May (as an example) after it syncs Microsoft To-Do shows incorrectly "Sun, 14 May" as Due Date.
When I do it the other way around and add the to-do in MS To-Do and set the Due Date as Mon, 15 May after syncing Outlook correctly shows 15th of May.
I can repro it all the time.
It appears that either you have a bug in reading from your common backend with Outlook or Outlook has a bug in saving there.

When adding to "My Day," have a drop down menu of your lists to choose which list the task goes with.
I work for two different Realtors plus I have a personal list. I'd like to be able to add a task to My Day without first having to go to the appropriate list, add the task, then click "add to my day."
