Watching some of the developments on Microsoft services gives you the sense that Planner could become very powerful and useful, such as with the Fluid components, Adaptive Cards, Power Automate, etc. The native Tasks/Planner in the mobile Teams app is limited and much different UI wise from the Planner mobile app. I was trying to show a coworker our Planner board via Tasks by Planner and To Do - and one of the plans didn't show up, so I had to go to that Team and access the pinned Planner board. Using it even for small projects just doesn't feel seamless and consistent enough. Integrations/ease of access seems to be another big thing to me. If you're lucky, you can tap to the right of a task within the bucket's boundaries and possibly get a scroll bar to come up, or maybe it'll open the task. The only way to scroll is to use a touchpad or mouse. It will pick up an existing task and move it. If you attempt to tap and drag to scroll, you can't. Using touch-input on a Surface Pro is impossible on the boards view in the Teams app and on the website. There's also some glaringly obvious UI issues with Planner. I think Microsoft is finally doing better about consolidating tasks across their services, but we're not there yet. Heck, even being able to natively copy checklist tasks in Power Automate took forever. Basic functionality as some have pointed out like recurring tasks are still not there. Feature updates and enhancements are far and few. I would say it's more under-focused/developed by Microsoft vs underrated. They started as too heavy and now they're almost non-existent.ĭon't even get me started on "Tasks for Planner and To Do". Notifications are lack-luster and inconsistent.
