Absolutely love how you not only teach us these tips and tricks, but you also organize the video so when we hover over the "line" (sorry, don't know what it's technically called) we can see what topic is covered - WOW! How super organized is that!!!! Thank you Kevin Stratvert for giving us these tools!

Kevin, I really like how you explained things so clearly. I am a senior adult and can feel challenged trying to keep up with how to stay on top of my schedule as well as using "To Do" when I have not grown up in that generation. I am determined to learn. Thank you for doing this video.

Great clarity. I have been using To Do for a couple of weeks, and had no idea of all its features. So helpful Kevin. A gift that keeps on giving 3 years later!

Really hope that now that you've left Microsoft, you expand this out into a series of videos using all sorts of productivity tools. The world is your oyster now!

Holy crap Kevin, this is better than anything you can find in the actual MS trainer/explainer videos. Keep up the great work on quality content.

Kevin: your tutorials are the best I've seen! Congratulations!

I have been using MS TODO for a while now. I love this tool. Learned a few new things from this video. Thank you so much.

As a Sharepoint Administrator and a DBA, all i can say is: "This is a perfect explanation/exposure" of this topic. Congratulations, awesome Job !!

Adding flagged emails to your tasks is really powerful. At first I did not like it and switched that feature off in settings. But I found it very inefficient to try and manually add the tasks in especially when I needed information in a specific email in order to do the task. So now I keep the feature on and I love that you can create subtasks within the flagged email task. Often the first step for me is simply "read this in detail" as I'll often get wall of text emails that take 10-15 minutes to fully read and understand.

Video idea (or point me to the video if you have one already): Discuss Microsoft Planner vs Microsoft To Do: similarities, differences, when you might use one versus the other? Also do Planner and To Do sync with the Outlook Calendar (i.e., do they automatically place to do items on your calendar? (that would be super handy for me!!!) Thank you so much for your tutorials! they are an awesome way to get to know all the things available thru Microsoft Office! Who KNEW???!!! Thank you!

I first started watching your videos on TikTok and found you to be very informative. Easy to understand. Thank you

Microsoft has really stepped up their game during Satya Nadella's time as CEO (from 2014-). The tools are becoming more powerful, connected and simple at the same time, and this has created A LOT of added value for me recently. Another amazing thing is this KZfaq channel; an easy, fresh and friendly way to learn about Microsoft's tools. Thanks Kevin for that! Microsoft is also doing very cool stuff on their hardware and software, instead of progressing in tiny increments like before. Very compelling stuff, creating value for the consumer first and to the shareholders second.

Kevin I have been watching instructional videos about To Do for the past hour and a half and none of them were as helpful as yours for getting started and making the most of this feature. Thank you!

Hey Kevin, thanks for the video, thats the thing about Microsoft, sometimes you have a powerful tool in front of you but without guidance you dont see how far you can go. The devs and desgners added a lot of options but sometimes you use the basics if you dont have the proper awareness Great ! tks

OMG - you totally solved my issue with TO DO and figuring out how to do sub-folders (used groups worked fabulously). Thank you so much for this video. I had spent over an hour trying to figure this out & then found you had the whole thing laid out so well. Bravo!

Thank You Kevin I could have never found a teacher like you . I learnt so much from your channel. Thanks

Hi Kevin , Thanks for this Video , I was confused with functionality of sharing and assigning task list with others in To do app , Now am clear .I request for explaining the To do & planner app interoperability in upcoming videos

Great tutorial! I switched to To Do, from Wiunderlist. Everything is great, except... one very important feature that is missing is to showing the overdue in the doc on my Mac like the reminders. I suggested this feature numerous times. No change. Therefore I am using reminders, Mac, because I am never late. It shows how many are overdue. Even though there are reminders in To Do, I can still miss the payment, if I miss the reminder, which is very easy To Do, :o). If you can suggest this feature to your colleges at Microsoft, our community would appreciate it.

I just can't express how grateful; I am for these videos. I have gained so much practical knowledge from you!

This turned out to be a great 2 in 1 video both on To Do app and how to start and Amazing KZfaq Channel!! NICE!

You are the master of simplified teaching . I thank you!

Really great. Thanks Kevin. I just switched over from Wunderlist to MS To Do and wanted to make sure I still had all the same features and abilities. Love it.

Seems like there are too many Microsoft apps for tasks and none seem to cleanly integrate into the Outlook calendar from what I've seen. They should simplify this and streamline To-Do, Tasks, Projects, etc. My challenge is trying to put our team tasks at work into one place and keep track of all the various due dates and who is completing them.

Really helpful video to get me started - very comprehensive! A helpful addition to would be more flexible custom reminders, e.g. every 1st Tuesday of the month or every other Friday (like in Outlook). I can't move all my productivity stuff to OneNote/To Do yet, mainly because this feature is lacking. Hope you're reading, Kevin!

only can say you are Super Perfect in what you are doing. Thank you

Thanks kevin you taught me more about microsoft services To do list will help me to be more productive in my daily work thanks again and again

Your video is immensely straight forward and useful, great job!!!

What a clear, easy to follow, perfectly paced instruction.

I just found you and this is crazy, but your videos have upped my productivity lately.

Brilliant video thank you. I have ADHD and I feel this app is going to ramp up my productivity

Thank you Kevin! I'm a loyal fan of all your beautiful videos! I think you always explain everything calmly and clearly and in a very nice way!

Very well explained, and very useful educational video on Microsoft To Do Software

I have stumbled upon your videos. These are awesome and I am listening to your how to videos to see if I can use it for my personal life and or work.

Great Video and easy to follow. One thing I discovered myself which I feel you could add to your channel is how you can drive your own productivity using the Focus Sessions feature in the clock app on Windows. It maps across to the To Do app as you probably know but I like how it tracks your productive time and gives you a sense of focused energy as you work through tasks.

What I find missing is a way to tie a To Do to one of the other 365 Suite, such as Outlook or Calendar. No way I'm checking two places to find out what my day/week is about. Keep growing and thanks for making the video!

I got up today and decided that the most important thing I need to complete on my todo list was to find a tool to manage that list. This looks great for what I need. I keep too many things in my head, have things jotted down in multiple places. It becomes too much to the point that I become unproductive. It's time for change.

I learned so much! I am giddy that I have completely up-leveled my use of the software!

Love to do, wish there was a way to set "my day" the night before.

One can typically expect to learn something new from you, thanks for the videos!

I seriously loved the video! It is something I had been looking for. Thank you Kevin :)

Thanks for the video - Microsoft To Do is the best (free) option out there. One of my favorite features is the ability to flag an email and quickly move it to a list.

Thanks for all your help, Kevin! Done a lot for a Solutions Architect here

Thank you so much! I already have Office account and this will be SO helpful. Appreciate the walk through.

Great introductory video - I'd been struggling with finding a suitable task manager that would work on my android phone in a Microsoft workplace and I think this will be a great help!

I wanted a good app and found Microsoft's app to be really good, and I also found this video which explained everything really well!

Great tutorial! Much appreciated.

Nice. I really enjoyed it. I used it for work and home. Gave me better ideas. Thanks. I have it linked to my cell, tablet and laptop.

Thank you for the video - very helpful as I've not long started using it. All I need to know is how to change the name of the categories to customise them for myself so I can use them. A colour doesn't mean much so rather than cause confusion down the track renaming the category would be helpful. Thanks!

Thanks for this video. It would nice to have one explaining how to interact between OnNote and To Do.

Thank you so much. The most informative and easy to understand tutorial out there. Great job.

Well done Kevin. This will dramatically improve my productivity

Thank You for this!!! I am late to the party, but I'm grateful to now employ my new learning,

I love this app, it has replaced my Samsung Notes, my Google Keep and My Google Reminders. Winning feature is that it runs natively on Windows and it synchronizes everywhere.

thanks you. Kevin. I am learning, noted this years ago. But for me, it is never too late. I will use to and try to master it thru my daily work self-managment. Apprecaited!

Thank you Kevin ! now i can finally organize my life

Thank you so much for this video. I've been using MS To Do, but you gave me more tips that i will be incorporating soon (ie. adding steps within a task, showing completed/ all tasks).

So thorough, so clear. So good!

Thank you for your video and channel's contents, Kevin. I hope that when Microsoft creates a way to migrate Outlook's Tasks list into TO DO, that you'll publish a new video. :-)

Another great tutorial by you. Thank you.

Well, thank you so much, Kevin. Now I know how to create my planned task in Microsoft To-Do🥰.

I needed this tutorial so badly, thank you Kevin!

I also use # tags as another way to search within to-do. Works well

This was the first time I have been inspired to subscribe to a channel! I am a professional trainer for work and I found this video of yours to be one of the best I have encountered in a quagmire of crap. Look forward to viewing more of your videos. I will learn as much about how to create excellent videos, by example, as I will about content. I had one question, can you import/export lists/tasks etc?

Wow! This was super helpful and very thorough without it being overwhelming. Thanks a lot!!

Can we create My Day a day before? It is important to know what all we have to do next day to be geared up for the day's jobs.Your tutorial is excellent, clearly explained, good sound quality too. Thank you.

All your videos have excellent content! Thanks for providing that. I'll share some with my co-workers.

video did exactly what it was suppose to ... Great Job

Thank you so much for this videos as I learned a couple of new things. I was originally a Wunderbar user. One of the features I loved was that starred items would be listed under their respective tasks. Now it’s the reverse and not as helpful. I use it for grocery shopping on my phone and would organize things by store. It was so easy to see which stores I needed to go to because there are some items that I stared. Now it’s a jumbled mess, I can alphabetize the entire starred list, but the task is listed underneath. Please, since you work at Microsoft, ask the developers to bring this feature back, or make it as a sorting option. To clarify what I’m saying here’s an example. Stop & Shop is the task, under that I starred dish detergent, hand soap, yoghurt. Whole Foods is the task, organic chicken, milk, spinach are starred. What comes back when you select Important is, dish detergent (Stop & Shop) hand soap (Stop & Shop), milk (Whole Foods) organic chicken (Whole Foods) spinach (Whole Foods) yoghurt (Stop & Shop). Hope this makes sense. Hope you can help to bring this feature back. Thanks!

Thanks, Kevin, I have learnt a great deal and most importantly appreciate the TODO more than what I had before. I did not know the features and functions previously. 👍

Excellent "Tasks To Do" and very well explained Thanks a lot.

Thank you very much Kevin, this is excellent and very helpful.

Waiting for the same video for power users 🙏 Thanks

Amazing Video and Amazing Useful Channel 👌 Thank You very much. From Italy

Nice...like I was looking for this...thanks man I found your channel more clear and professional without adds and extra animations etc... Good kevin best of luck I have watched almost all videos and looking for more to come. They are helping me alot....

Another great video Kevin - your videos are really good. Question: Besides flagging an email, is there another way to quickly put an email into TO DO? Also, I have tasks in outlook that are recurring for me which I look at every day. Do you use both outlook and TO DO for tasks or do you stick with one? Thanks.

Amazing how to video! This wil maximize my way of working now! 😀

It would be great if they had an "inprogress" status and the option to retain "My Day" tasks for the next day. Also, there's no "My Day" in Outlook 2016, which is a real deficit.

I can say that I can’t live without this app anymore. I only use it for work

Great. Could you guys add the option to share a group. And, when we search a word let’s get it highlighted. Appreciate it. Thanks

Thanks. How does one have the alarm ring as reminder? I set a reminder alarm but it did not ring at the assigned time against a task- attend webinar

Thanks Kevin, really good instruction video.

My favorite Microsoft app it makes my life organized

Thanks, great video and very well explained. One question I have is about the ability to sort by category. I can do this on my computer but not on the app.

Thanks. very helpfull. I enjoy listening to you. perfect. Thanks.

Tasks is my favourite MS product. I love to mark things on my plate as done. I am glad it is this simple and MS didn't try to complicate it. I use it daily for my own. This is an MVP of Trello which I use in org. The note function in its Mac app has some bugs though. And, in this video, I am seeing category and flag functionality for the first time;flag list is so cool! MS should integrate it better with Outlook and Teams. I see it on Outlook web but not on Mac OS. I read that MS is updating Outlook Mac app, hoping it will be good.

Thank you for this video , this video is so easy to learn

Kevin thanks for clarifying some doubts, here today.

Great tuturial Kevin, looking forward to the advanced one!

Thanks for this very useful video. Could you please explain the differences between Outlook Tasks and Microsoft To Do?

Hi Kevin, Thanks for this tutorial..!!! its very clear and professional. It would be helpful and informative if you share videos on outlook as well.

Incredibly informative video. Is there any capability to integrate this with task on MS Project?

Thank you for the great lesson

Love the app, vut I would like to convert them to appointments in calendar too

This is an excellent video, thank you for taking the time to do it

Loved this tutorial - thank you so much!

WOW!!! Great stuff. Please create a video to compare and contrast To Do and MS Lists. Maybe show some tips on integrating their functionality. Peace.

Great video. Only thing missing was how to connect Outlook with To Do in order to be able to flag emails.

Do you know when/if the "Category" feature be available in the desktop and iOS versions of the app? Currently only in browser

Great video Kevin! I really appreciate all your videos and I must acknowledge that you have pushed me to start using several function of MS office apps, including this To Do app. I have a question: Will MS To-Do SHARED USERS receive notifications? For example, if I create a list and assign someone to a task, will they be notified... Preferably at the time of assigning or when the task becomes due?

Excellent Kevin...I learned a lot and will be back for more info! Thank you!
