Those who frequently use tags will love the pop-up menu as you type hashtags, allowing one-click entry of previous tags, or to view every task with that tag applied across all lists.

Although the UI is already quite compact, Command-2 reduces the window to a “minified” view sans sidebar, while Command-1 restores everything to normal. There are a couple nice shortcuts baked into Microsoft To-Do. IDGĪdd new tasks, then check them off as they’re completed-Microsoft To-Do keeps everything in sync across all of your devices. Speaking of integration, clicking Open in Outlook from flagged emails unfortunately launches the web app, rather than the native Mac application. Version 1.61 also now syncs Microsoft Planner tasks, which was missing from previous Mac releases. Adding new tasks to the My Day view in the Mac app updated immediately in the web app (and vice versa), with only a brief delay on our iPhone X. On the plus side, sync was blazingly fast.

Wunderlist users can import data via the web app, but it took several tries before we were successful at doing so with our very sparse account. For example, there’s currently no way to duplicate a list, nor print or export data from this version. Microsoft To-Do may be chock full of the stuff that made Wunderlist a cross-platform darling, but the Mac app hasn’t achieved feature parity quite yet. Quickly add frequently-used tags by typing the hashtag symbol to bring up the tag browser.
