What you get

Keep track of your commitments and choose what to tackle today.

Microsoft To Do gives you a place to collect errands, work assignments, shopping lists, and household routines. You can choose what to tackle in My Day, with suggestions drawn from your existing lists, rather than reviewing every list from scratch each morning.

You can turn a larger task into smaller steps, keep supporting notes and files attached, and set due dates and reminders. Recurring dates help you keep routine chores or bills on your radar without creating each task again. Files up to 25 MB can stay with the task they belong to.

Your lists and reminders sync across devices through Microsoft 365, so you can retrieve them wherever you need them. If you use Outlook, flagged emails can become tasks in To Do. You can also share lists with family, classmates, or colleagues to coordinate groceries, schoolwork, or work responsibilities.

  • Choose today's priorities

    You can build a daily plan with My Day and suggestions from tasks already on your lists.

  • Make larger tasks manageable

    You can break tasks into steps and keep relevant notes and files alongside them.

  • Remember recurring responsibilities

    You can set recurring due dates and reminders for chores, bills, and other regular commitments.

  • Keep email follow-ups visible

    You can bring flagged Outlook emails into your task list so follow-ups sit beside your other commitments.

  • Coordinate shared responsibilities

    You can share lists with family, classmates, or colleagues so you have a common place to track what needs doing.

Best for

  • You want one place for work tasks and household errands
  • You use Outlook and need to track email follow-ups
  • You coordinate shopping or responsibilities with others

Skip it if

You don't need it if a simple checklist already covers your needs and you have no use for reminders, shared lists, or cross-device access.
