Description

Microsoft Planner requires an eligible Office 365 work or school subscription. This app does not support Office 365 personal accounts (for example: name@outlook.com or name@hotmail.com). If you are not sure about your company’s subscription or the services you have access to, please contact your IT department.
Planner provides a simple, visual way to organize teamwork. Planner makes it easy for your team to create new plans, organize and assign tasks, share files, chat about what you’re working on, and get updates on progress.
-- Organize work visually --
Each plan has its own board, where you can organize tasks into buckets. You can categorize tasks based on their status or on whom they’re assigned to. To update the status or change assignments, just drag and drop tasks between columns.
-- Visibility --
The My Tasks view provides a comprehensive list of all your tasks and their status across all your plans. When working together on a plan, team members always know who is working on what.
-- Collaborate --
Built for Office 365, Planner lets you work together on the same tasks, attach captured photos directly to them, and even have conversations around tasks without switching between apps. With Planner, all your team’s discussions and deliverables stay with the plan and don’t get locked away across disparate applications.
-- Works across devices --
Planner works across all your devices. And with Planner, everyone is always on the same page. Continue conversations and updates tasks while on-the-go or at your desk.

The Microsoft Planner app will request permission to access your photos and your camera: When you try to attach a photo to a Planner task, the app requests permission to access your Photos app in order to select images. If you choose to take a photo to attach to a Planner task, the app will request permission to access your Camera app.

What's New in Version 1.3.1

The Planner app now supports iPad!
Thank you for using Planner.
We regularly release updates to the app, which include great new features, as well as improvements for speed and reliability.

Rudimentary

It would be nice if Microsoft could get it together. Every time they come out with an app, it doesn’t work as intended. If you click a link to a document embedded in a task it reports error 912. This renders the app useless as it will not open docs in the OneDrive app or in OneDrive online. It works “somewhat as intended” on the IPhone: It wont open in OneDrive, but after 3 clicks on the request to open in browser, it finally will open the document. Really, Are you doing any QA testing before you release. This product should be somewhat mature and not have Mickey Mouse issues at this point. No insult intended to Mickey!

The Ultimate To-Do!

I've been using Wunderlist for years now, and it's a nice app but it's not what one would call "business class," Microsoft Planner however is wonderful! It's polished, powerful, simple, a true joy to use. My only gripe is, this isn't available for everyone with a standard Live account. I think I speak for the majority of people when I say I would gladly pay for the privilege to use this app as a standalone product. It's THAT good!

Great app

I use this to keep track of my tasks I need to do. I can add my own and my boss can add them as well. I love this app! It makes it really easy to keep track of things and cross them off my list.

Tagging

I love how you can assign tasks but your comments cannot be tagged to call out a specific person, not can the checklist be assigned to a specific person. We use a group and in some cases not all portions are relevant to each person but holistically we Are aiming to complete the said task/Project. Still learning the tool but liking what is there. Just needs some more product enhancements.

Plans aren’t synchronized properly

I have 9 plans. All visible and editable in the web, but the iOS app only get 5. One plan is Shawn twice. Please fix. Other than that, the app is really awesome. Keep up good work!

Good start, but lacking essential features

Missing these essential features:
1) Export to speadsheet
2) Can't archive a bucket/board
3) No recycle bin for deleted tasks/buckets
4) No calendar view
5) You can't view/sort by labels
6) No ability to view all files attached on a board
7) No search
8) No permission levels

Great app, needs templates

Planner is great for managing projects. I use it for a small team.
Right now its missing two things.
1. Templates to for repeating projects.
2. A calendar view by project and due date.

Disappointed

After last update if you assign someone a task or try to open up a task to do anything it crashes and closes. So let down. This impacts my business and should have been caught before being released. Hope it’s fixed ASAP!!

Please, optimize it for iPad

Love this app but I often work from my iPad in Landscape mode. This makes me use web version instead of the App.

Can't believe I'm rating a Microsoft app 5 stars

I really like this app. It's the right blend of simplicity and power. Feels a lot like how I tried to make Wunderlist work for business years ago but it never really did. This feels cleaner and less friction overall than Trello. Keep up the great work.
I don't use Teams though. I'd love to get this hooked up to Slack.
One thing I'd change: after clicking into a task from the 'My Tasks' section, the name of the Plan is in the upper left, next to the Bucket Name. Clicking the Plan name should take me to the Plan, not to change the bucket, like makes sense would happen when you click on the bucket name. I can't seem to get back to the Plan unless I go to the Planner Hub. Just a few extra clicks that mightn't be needed...

You really need some push notifications

What is the use of a task manger that can't remind you when something is due, overdo, upcoming, etc... also need tasks that repeat on a scheduled basis.

Works great

I like the sync, visibility to others, and card view with checklist. It takes a little to get the hang of this interface but once you do, you can realize the benefits. I even use it for study and organizing complex topics.

Ok for basic viewing of tasks but needs update

The app is fine for viewing basic tasks, but needs support for iPad and to look like the graphics that you see in office 365.

Very intuitive and useful

I've just started using Planner (via web and iPhone app), but I'm already really liking it. It looks especially useful when used in conjunction with Teams (I love Teams).
This will likely replace Trello for us.
What's missing is an iPad app. The web version works well on iPad, but it would be nice to have a dedicated app. It would also be nice to have Apple Watch support.

Not too shabby

I've been anxiously awaiting the Planner app since I first stumbled on the web version. Easy to use and no real learning curve as the UI is fairly seamless from the web version.
I wouldn't mind seeing the charts in the app but for on-the-go task tracking, I'm quite pleased!

After the most recent upgrade it resolved the issues I was having logging in. I am able to create and assign tasks as well as update heir status from the app. This works great when I am out of the office and need to be able to track the status on my projects.

Cannot login to organisational page

This app starts redirecting to our corporate login and then stops and goes back to the login page.....I can't even get past the login screen yet - come on Microsoft Development team - I know you can do better.
Update: The Microsoft team came through and fixed the issue.

So far so good

So glad is app is finally available. I use this as to-do lists for myself that are categorized. I love the structure, but I wish I could sort my tasks by due date so that I can take a quick glance at what's due today or overdue to prioritize.

No iPad version

Not sure why Microsoft chose to release this as an iPhone version only, but it makes no sense. I would use more planner on the web as part of my O365 subscription, and stay away from other apps like to trello, but without an iPad version it's worthless.

Can't access my plans

Can't login to work O365 account

Enter user name and starts to "redirect to my company login page" but never gets there. Just goes back to the sign in button. I can never get to where I type my password or authenticate. Other MS apps work fine for logging in. Hoping for a fix and excited to see an app for planner!

Still Requires Web

This app does not really do much. In fact, to create a new plan you actually must go to the website. This should be a fully standalone app and allow me to manage plans and tasks. At this point, just use Trello.

Released prematurely

I am fortunate enough to have an active school 365 account. However, after logging into the app, I am directed online to start a project. What's the point of the app if I have to do it online? Stop releasing products that's haven't been thought through!

Can't login

I have an office 365 account. I log in to 5 different apps with the same email and now it won't let me on here. Try online now and it redirects me to another login for work or school account the won't let me use my email to login. It is the only email I have ever used. Now I'm locked out of online 365. What a joke. Real happy to be a paying customer with no functionality. Excel keeps kicking me out on IPad Pro as well.
