Outlook Tasks, Task List & Categories

I use the “Getting Things Done” method at work and use Outlook tasks to organize my work activities. I create tasks from emails, apply a category, place priority, next items, the whole process. I get home and use my iPad for checking and responding to email and check my calendar for the next days activities. Problem is I cannot see my TaskList and categorized tasks I rely on to manage my day. I really would like you to consider making tasks and categories available in the IOS app to match the functionality of the MS software.

    When I add a new Task in Google Keep i see it in my calendar (In Outlook) but their is a problem identifying, that this task was created by my linked google account. Their is always a mail like ‚unknownuser@gmail.com‘ which is wrong because I created this task.

    There is no use for the app without tasks, it´s just as easy to just use iOS´s own calendar and email. It´s unbelievable that the tasks haven't been included from the beginning...

    With my job I travel 50-75% of the time. I also use the getting things done method and really want to be able to drag my emails to tasks and view them in Outlook. My company doesn't have 365, so I haven't been able to test out the tasks app, but being able to do it all in the Outlook app would help me a LOT.

    I am really missing to have Tasks available in the iOS version of Outlook. Is that something which is in the pipeline?

    Agree.... I create tasks from emails etc as well and it is frustrating not being able to view/add/delete when on iPad. Really needed

    How do I view Tasks that I have set up in Outlook. I have to log onto my laptop to access Tasks. Is there a way to see them from my phone?

    Tasks are too separate when all email is simply a task and simple task management with priority and nested would be great. Easily treat an email or note or anything like a task. Like GroupWise

    Microsoft To-Do for iphone doesn’t sync properly with Outlook 365

    Yes, I use Outlook on Windows to create and organise my tasks – It would be great if I could manage and see them in Outlook on iOS, too👍🏻

    Can you make it easier to make tasks and calendar items from any email? Subject as item name, body as description?
