How to use Microsoft To Do

[@margaritaconley8044]

Absolutely love how you not only teach us these tips and tricks, but you also organize the video so when we hover over the "line" (sorry, don't know what it's technically called) we can see what topic is covered - WOW! How super organized is that!!!! Thank you Kevin Stratvert for giving us these tools!

[@Justakatto]

youtube automatically does that for you. all you have to do it put time stamps in the description

[@douglasdeltondo7852]

Great clarity. I have been using To Do for a couple of weeks, and had no idea of all its features. So helpful Kevin. A gift that keeps on giving 3 years later!

[@SandraKiser-c6f]

Kevin, I really like how you explained things so clearly. I am a senior adult and can feel challenged trying to keep up with how to stay on top of my schedule as well as using "To Do" when I have not grown up in that generation. I am determined to learn. Thank you for doing this video.

[@GrowWithWill]

Really hope that now that you've left Microsoft, you expand this out into a series of videos using all sorts of productivity tools. The world is your oyster now!

[@davidmillard9001]

Love how clearly spoken you are. So straightforward. No fluff. Brilliant keep up the great work

[@LuizSchmidt]

Kevin: your tutorials are the best I've seen! Congratulations!

[@anthonyramirez9123]

Holy crap Kevin, this is better than anything you can find in the actual MS trainer/explainer videos. Keep up the great work on quality content.

[@agalarzautube]

As a Sharepoint Administrator and a DBA, all i can say is: "This is a perfect explanation/exposure" of this topic. Congratulations, awesome Job !!

[@ravilobo7977]

I have been using MS TODO for a while now. I love this tool. Learned a few new things from this video. Thank you so much.

[@kNotmyTunes]

I first started watching your videos on TikTok and found you to be very informative. Easy to understand. Thank you

[@eaaeeeea]

Microsoft has really stepped up their game during Satya Nadella's time as CEO (from 2014-). The tools are becoming more powerful, connected and simple at the same time, and this has created A LOT of added value for me recently. Another amazing thing is this KZbin channel; an easy, fresh and friendly way to learn about Microsoft's tools. Thanks Kevin for that! Microsoft is also doing very cool stuff on their hardware and software, instead of progressing in tiny increments like before. Very compelling stuff, creating value for the consumer first and to the shareholders second.

[@SaveTheBiosphere]

Thanks!

[@greathorseart]

Kevin I have been watching instructional videos about To Do for the past hour and a half and none of them were as helpful as yours for getting started and making the most of this feature. Thank you!

[@KevinStratvert]

Glad it helped, Lucy!

[@JillJohnsonUSA]

OMG - you totally solved my issue with TO DO and figuring out how to do sub-folders (used groups worked fabulously). Thank you so much for this video. I had spent over an hour trying to figure this out & then found you had the whole thing laid out so well. Bravo!

[@Navidkhann1]

Thank You Kevin I could have never found a teacher like you . I learnt so much from your channel. Thanks

[@johns8903]

You are the master of simplified teaching . I thank you!

[@Munneke1962]

Thank you Kevin! I'm a loyal fan of all your beautiful videos! I think you always explain everything calmly and clearly and in a very nice way!

[@TheAboriginal1]

Adding flagged emails to your tasks is really powerful. At first I did not like it and switched that feature off in settings. But I found it very inefficient to try and manually add the tasks in especially when I needed information in a specific email in order to do the task. So now I keep the feature on and I love that you can create subtasks within the flagged email task. Often the first step for me is simply "read this in detail" as I'll often get wall of text emails that take 10-15 minutes to fully read and understand.

[@raphaelperes4905]

Hey Kevin, thanks for the video, thats the thing about Microsoft, sometimes you have a powerful tool in front of you but without guidance you dont see how far you can go. The devs and desgners added a lot of options but sometimes you use the basics if you dont have the proper awareness Great ! tks

[@peteallennh]

I just can't express how grateful; I am for these videos. I have gained so much practical knowledge from you!

[@seydnavid]

only can say you are Super Perfect in what you are doing. Thank you

[@carlabryant3550]

Video idea (or point me to the video if you have one already): Discuss Microsoft Planner vs Microsoft To Do: similarities, differences, when you might use one versus the other? Also do Planner and To Do sync with the Outlook Calendar (i.e., do they automatically place to do items on your calendar? (that would be super handy for me!!!) Thank you so much for your tutorials! they are an awesome way to get to know all the things available thru Microsoft Office! Who KNEW???!!! Thank you!

[@deeford8318]

That’s what I’d love to know. I’ve tried many task apps and I can’t see to find one I like that links your tasked to outlook. At least, not for free.

[@BenjaminLStewart]

Microsoft should merge the two. Have the ability to move between a list, (Kanban) board, and calendar views.

[@SWhitehead]

In the settings you can turn on the link to Planner. My assigned planner tasks show up in my Microsoft To Do tasks

[@bushwik]

@@SWhitehead What settings offer this? In Office.com? I don't see that option when logged into To Do via a browser...

[@Compertz]

@@SWhitehead Planner doesn't show up in my 'free' version and it isn't an option in my settings. : (

[@shemeikabrock436]

Really great. Thanks Kevin. I just switched over from Wunderlist to MS To Do and wanted to make sure I still had all the same features and abilities. Love it.

[@PhucLe-mq7le]

Your video is immensely straight forward and useful, great job!!!

[@jdw4807tube]

One can typically expect to learn something new from you, thanks for the videos!

[@MrMikeyPayne]

What a clear, easy to follow, perfectly paced instruction.

[@alluringasymmetry]

I just found you and this is crazy, but your videos have upped my productivity lately.

[@Chrisreedbeats]

This turned out to be a great 2 in 1 video both on To Do app and how to start and Amazing KZbin Channel!! NICE!

[@iancrawford7997]

So thorough, so clear. So good!

[@gin9908]

Hi Kevin , Thanks for this Video , I was confused with functionality of sharing and assigning task list with others in To do app , Now am clear .I request for explaining the To do & planner app interoperability in upcoming videos

[@tinamarialawson]

I just asked same question about planner connection.... then I saw you asked too.... great minds😀

[@codewithme6766]

I seriously loved the video! It is something I had been looking for. Thank you Kevin :)

[@quruxdaxamarcadey413]

Thanks kevin you taught me more about microsoft services To do list will help me to be more productive in my daily work thanks again and again

[@tievoli3328]

Great tutorial! I switched to To Do, from Wiunderlist. Everything is great, except... one very important feature that is missing is to showing the overdue in the doc on my Mac like the reminders. I suggested this feature numerous times. No change. Therefore I am using reminders, Mac, because I am never late. It shows how many are overdue. Even though there are reminders in To Do, I can still miss the payment, if I miss the reminder, which is very easy To Do, :o). If you can suggest this feature to your colleges at Microsoft, our community would appreciate it.

[@ismailsufiani2810]

Love Bro well understood , all i needed⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

[@Zelda36908]

I have stumbled upon your videos. These are awesome and I am listening to your how to videos to see if I can use it for my personal life and or work.

[@emilythechef]

I needed this tutorial so badly, thank you Kevin!

[@Jon-hb6gx]

Really helpful video to get me started - very comprehensive! A helpful addition to would be more flexible custom reminders, e.g. every 1st Tuesday of the month or every other Friday (like in Outlook). I can't move all my productivity stuff to OneNote/To Do yet, mainly because this feature is lacking. Hope you're reading, Kevin!

[@willemflach9834]

Well done Kevin. This will dramatically improve my productivity

[@Goldiegogo4567]

Thank you so much. The most informative and easy to understand tutorial out there. Great job.

[@CSenn_]

I learned so much! I am giddy that I have completely up-leveled my use of the software!

[@mikemontazer2589]

[@Ryan-op2ng]

Thank you Kevin ! now i can finally organize my life

[@danielsears3782]

Great Video and easy to follow. One thing I discovered myself which I feel you could add to your channel is how you can drive your own productivity using the Focus Sessions feature in the clock app on Windows. It maps across to the To Do app as you probably know but I like how it tracks your productive time and gives you a sense of focused energy as you work through tasks.

[@fiestaquest861]

This was the first time I have been inspired to subscribe to a channel! I am a professional trainer for work and I found this video of yours to be one of the best I have encountered in a quagmire of crap. Look forward to viewing more of your videos. I will learn as much about how to create excellent videos, by example, as I will about content. I had one question, can you import/export lists/tasks etc?

[@matheusspm]

All your videos have excellent content! Thanks for providing that. I'll share some with my co-workers.

[@ishfaqahmed7337]

Nice...like I was looking for this...thanks man I found your channel more clear and professional without adds and extra animations etc... Good kevin best of luck I have watched almost all videos and looking for more to come. They are helping me alot....

[@apadcole23]

Wow! This was super helpful and very thorough without it being overwhelming. Thanks a lot!!

[@shelithacampbell1299]

Thank You for this!!! I am late to the party, but I'm grateful to now employ my new learning,

[@NicoleTeacher]

Thank you so much! I already have Office account and this will be SO helpful. Appreciate the walk through.

[@Coronet_1969_]

Seems like there are too many Microsoft apps for tasks and none seem to cleanly integrate into the Outlook calendar from what I've seen. They should simplify this and streamline To-Do, Tasks, Projects, etc. My challenge is trying to put our team tasks at work into one place and keep track of all the various due dates and who is completing them.

[@mandyblaauw7638]

Great tuturial Kevin, looking forward to the advanced one!

[@BenjaminLStewart]

Thanks for the video - Microsoft To Do is the best (free) option out there. One of my favorite features is the ability to flag an email and quickly move it to a list.

[@Elslord]

But only because they killed Wunderlist. Until then, they were second best, and they didnˋt improve since

[@janicehubbell]

Nice. I really enjoyed it. I used it for work and home. Gave me better ideas. Thanks. I have it linked to my cell, tablet and laptop.

[@craigkowalick1206]

I also use # tags as another way to search within to-do. Works well

[@SuperskillsCoUkTraining]

Great introductory video - I'd been struggling with finding a suitable task manager that would work on my android phone in a Microsoft workplace and I think this will be a great help!

[@trishcorbett6177]

Thank you for the video - very helpful as I've not long started using it. All I need to know is how to change the name of the categories to customise them for myself so I can use them. A colour doesn't mean much so rather than cause confusion down the track renaming the category would be helpful. Thanks!

[@musyarofahhumaira]

Well, thank you so much, Kevin. Now I know how to create my planned task in Microsoft To-Do🥰.

[@meta-lifestyle7766]

Thanks, Kevin, I have learnt a great deal and most importantly appreciate the TODO more than what I had before. I did not know the features and functions previously. 👍

[@TheFirstRealChewy]

I got up today and decided that the most important thing I need to complete on my todo list was to find a tool to manage that list. This looks great for what I need. I keep too many things in my head, have things jotted down in multiple places. It becomes too much to the point that I become unproductive. It's time for change.
