Microsoft is adding Planner Premium Plan tasks to the new Planner app under the My Tasks view

Published on

Earlier this month, Microsoft revealed that the upgraded Planner app for Teams had reached general availability. Today, the company announced that the new Planner app is getting another feature update that should make it easier for its users to see all of their assigned tasks on one page of the app.

in a blog postMicrosoft said the new Planner app, along with the To Do app, can now see tasks done from Planner Premium (formerly Project for the web) on the apps’ My Tasks page under the “Assigned to Me” view.

Previously, Planner app users had to check each plan individually to update them if they were done with a Planner Premium Plan. This improvement means that this clumsy method should now be much simpler. Microsoft says:

You can not only see the Premium plan tasks, but also update the progress of the task and mark it as complete directly in the Assigned to me view. Editing the remaining fields is just one click away; You can do this by clicking “Go to Premium Plan” in the task details view, which will then enable full task management capabilities.

This new feature has started rolling out to users of the Planner and To Do apps and will be available to all users in the coming weeks.

Microsoft also announced plans today to add even more features to the Planner app in the near future. They include:

  • Ability to edit additional fields from the Assign Me view
  • Synchronization of labels, list of lists
  • Synchronize tasks from programs in the named organization

Microsoft has already announced that it has no plans to retire the older Planner app or the To Do app. However, it does have plans to update Planner on the web with the new Planner app at some point.
