There’s also a “Shared Plans” space for team projects. Users will have a “My Tasks” space to see their personal tasks, which seem to come from To Do. It will then change to Tasks by Planner and To Do and finally will be renamed to Tasks. The app is currently called Planner and will remain Planner as they roll out the new Planner experience. To get the Tasks in the Teams app, click the ellipses in the Teams sidebar and then select Planner. This means project leads can assign task to other users by mentioning them in a document, presentation or spreadsheet, which will then automatically appear in their ‘Assigned to you’ list. Tasks created in Outlook already sync with Microsoft To Do, meanwhile Office will soon support mentions in Excel, Word and PowerPoint. The aim is to have people create tasks across Microsoft 365 applications without engaging in application “context switching” or having to open a separate task application. Tasks app in MIcrosoft Teams is a consolidated product because it pulls together information from other Microsoft task-creation applications, namely Microsoft Planner and To Do. Microsoft had announced the rollout of their Tasks in Microsoft Teams for the public, an app that provides a coherent task management experience in your hub for teamwork and brings a better view of both your personal tasks and the team’s tasks.
